The 2011 British Open

There is a lot of golf to be played yet. Westwood and Harrington could still sneak in.  Too early to tell.

Did not see that coming. Westwood and Gmac missing the cut.

Peter Uhlein is playing well. Hope he makes a top 10

Hopefully Rory has a good round.

I can't see that many coming back at them to be honest.

Choi is struggling also & likely won't make the cut

thats how these majors play, you never know whos going to win or make the cut. I learned that when I had to make picks for the masters tournament, alot of times guys you least expect will be at the top of the leaderboard and guys you thought would win dont make the cut

And here comes the Rory charge (hopefully)

At least you're optimistic

Well he's 4 behind with a 100 foot tap in eagle putt coming up

Tom Watson's ace was awesome. Out of anyone playing - he was the best guy to see it happen to

Glad to see George Coetzee up there. He's got a lot of game and is in good form at the moment, coming off top three finishes in the Scottish Open and BMW International. He's 24 and I think about ready to break through on the Euro tour. Unknown South Africans winning The Open two years in a row might be a bit too much to hope for though!

Seven players need to drop to 4-over to move the cut down to that level. The guys at that mark shouldn't be making any travel plans yet.

I hope Rory makes a charge this weekend. I like to watch the kid play.

Also, I love that Tom Watson had an ace. Couldn't think of a better guy for it to happen to.

[Chilli Dipper]

Donald has found a bunker lie even he can't get out of, and his tournament is over. The world's top two players, on their home soil, are not going to figure in the weekend's proceedings.

[deasy55]

McIlroy just had an amazing up and down there on 18. Shame about Donald....there's my money gone down the drain

[Tiger Spuds]

You just can't rely on Donald when it comes to the Majors.

Can somebody remind me what Tom Watson's elongated sendoff at last year's Open Championship was about?  Maybe I was mistakenly under the impression he was done playing at the British, but was it actually more about playing that specific course?

Before the tournament I was going to put my money on Bjorne to win. Would of been a good idea, not saying hes going to win but hes up there

Think that was his goodbye to St. Andrews, since it's unlikely he'll be playing there in 5 years time.
