Well the conditions are absolutely horrible at the moment. If they stay the same I believe 2 or 3 over may win it. Also I find the BBC commentators waaaayy to boring. It just doesn't seem the same as all of the other majors, but I suppose that is what Links golf is about.

Also does it seem that they are only showing European players in their coverage? They are showing very few Americans and Australians.

I saw some of the sandtrap staff picking scores as low as -8. I think this is way off. Maybe not but my guess is somewhere around +1.

-15 under

They will beat their swords into golf clubs and their spears into putters. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore. Old Tom Morris 2:4

That's why I can't see anyone getting below 2 under in 72 holes.

He's not a favorite but he's a player.

The weather today is definitely not helping scores, but I would think conditions can't be like that everyday so scores should come back somewhat. I would go on record and predict a score of -5 as a winning score.

In our defense, we write those up like a week in advance and have no idea what the weather will be like.

And hey, Rocco finished -1 in brutal conditions. If it lessens a little, we could get to -8. Umm, okay, probably not. It'd have to lessen quite a bit.

Yeah, it's easier to start guessing scores after seeing the morning rounds today. My prediction of -3 is still in play, but it may end up being around even par or so. Still, if the weather settles a little, these guys can make some birdies and go lower than they did today.

The weather is supposed to get really nasty on Saturday; heard one R&A; official today describe the predicted winds for Saturday as "catastrophic". If this holds true, I see around +5 as winning it.

      What'd You Shoot Today?

      By WillieT ·

      26 Nov 24 -  It was not a record breaking round by any means, but rather a simple walking of the back nine today playing TBWB (two ball-worse ball) where the challenge is to play the worse of the two shots played - could be an errant drive from the woods, a tree knocked ball that is 100 yds farther back down the fairway, a nGIR ball as opposed to a GIR….the goal today was to stay no worse than bogie thru nine.  Managed to achieve that goal - bogied 7 holes with one dbl and one par to counter the dbl.  It’s about staying focused and not letting a bad shot or lie derail, but rather be an opportunity.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 208 (26 Nov 24)- Opted to walk 9 today (was the back nine as they had a huge group going off the front) but instead of it being persimmons and blades, I had the regular gamers but made it a TBWB (two ball-worst ball) round.  This really challenges on several fronts - ball striking to be as consistent as possible, course management from non-optimal lies and keeping your head in it as it can be depressing to nail a shot on line-on target and the second rattles the trees right and it’s over 50 yards back and that’s the one you have to play.  The goal was to be no worse than bogie overall (+9).  Finished the round exactly on the number with some solid recoveries, no penalty strokes and only one 3-putt.
