2014 Open Championship (British Open) at Royal Liverpool Discussion Thread

And Rickie is gonna have to make this eagle.

I honestly think Rickie is out of it unless he shoots 6 or 7 under on the back and makes a couple eagles

[nevets88]

Fowler make this eagle.

[RJH999]

Noooooo. That'll do it. < I really thought that was in

He would need help, that's for sure. Looking less and less likely with how effective Rory has been off the tee.

[phan52]

Rickie must make or it's a two man tournament.

[RJH999]

Two man race now. Jim Furyk must reallly like Royal Liverpool, cuz he's crap everywhere else in the British Open rotation

[RJH999]

Sergio...It was not very good

[jamo]

Huh. Rickie has some sort of graphite-shafted long iron. Is that a Cobra hybrid/driving iron thing or just a regular iron?

[RJH999]

I have learned that saying JACKASS right before McIlroy swings does NOT help. Unbelievable I know.

[phan52]

Wow, I thought Sergio made that putt. That would have gone a long way.

[RJH999]

Dammit

[RJH999]

I picked Sergio at -14, he'll need to finish around -17 to have a chance

It's an Amp Forged 3-iron with a graphite Matrix Ozik hM2 X-stiff shaft

Ah, I figured as much.

[jamo]

Rory's in the deep stuff, so that's nice.

Knowing Rory's luck, he'll get a good lie and knock it to 12 feet.

[phan52]

Mistake by McIlroy on the par 3. Got a little impatient on the tee for the first time, as he has been waiting on every shot since the 10th hole yesterday. Tough situation for a guy who likes to play at a good pace.

[jamo]

Lead down to 2.
