Why? Duval is still a better player than anyone on this forum and any instructor i know of in this country or the USA.

Another week of optimism and another week of Duval missing the cut and crushing the hopes of those few who still believe in him.

Errrr . . . because he was joking . Hence the large yellow dot in his post with the appearance of a smile and one eye closed . . .

Yes, I was kidding.

I personally believe Duval is very close to making a comeback and produsing a performance that befits someone of his calibre. Like all of us, he just needs to cut out the bogeys. Role on Birkdale, he will make the cut there i think. Hes a thinker and a strategist and that is what is needed aound that course. Cant wait

Duval just needs to get some new equipment! he's been using the same stuff as he was in 99! (joking)

Good luck with that! Might as well throw John Daly in there too. Ain't going to happen.

Even though David Duval has made just one cut in 11 tournaments this year...I think he can win The Open.


War, Duval!

[BASHERBAKER69]

David is due a performance at The Open this year i feel. A cut made i predict.

LOL

I'd put better odds on John Daly. I'd be very surprised if DD makes the cut. Not so much with Daly.

Duval is looking GOOD. +3 while many stars are way over like Phil at +9. He's in the game for now.

[BigDaddy_Sean]

I saw that .. lets not jinx him! :)

[CG031]

yeah hes playing decently at the british.

[RX Phoenix]

Well . . . I think he made the cut at +2, wait . . . he's tied 4th place? Shot -1 today, where is John Daly, +29. Two guys going in opposite directions. Duval stated today that he is trying to get back to greatness, not just decent play, and that this is why the results have not yet come, he's aiming high and working only for that, not just to make cuts. He said that he was getting close even if it hadn't shown up yet, and then BAM, here he is solid like a rock.

If he throws another strong round up in the wind, then it will be must watch TV because very few players can dial it in like Duval, we'll see what tommorrow brings.

David has taken a lot of grief from some people in the media and some fans because he has played so badly the past few years. Some people LOVE to stomp on a guy when he is down but not yet out. He is now a happy family man, and back in 1999-2001, he was not. Personally, I am glad to see him play well, and I am glad that the Open Championship does allow past Champions to play for a lifetime---look at Tom Watson and Greg Norman----they can still play in the testing British and Scottish weather.
Go get 'em, David and show your critics that you can still play this game.

He tripled bogeyed the first hole and bogeyed number 2. Not a good start.

[PEZGolf]

It is too bad that DD recorded an 83 in the third round, after a rocky start. He sez that he is going to keep on trying. I hope he does. Anyone who can be on the Leaderboard for two rounds at Royal Birkdale in that wind has shown that he can STILL PLAY!!
