Your right unless the wind starts to pick up a little. Too many really great golfers on the course right now and yet to start for there to not at least be a 63. Need Lingmerth to pick it up a little....

Ben Martin's wife is not at the British Open, and the reason will make you laugh.  From golfdigest.com. http://www.golfdigest.com/blogs/the-loop/2015/07/ben-martins-wife-is-not-at-the.html

I swear there's a "Ghost of 62" out there. Every time someone gets close the golf gods say "No sir". Remember Tiger and Nick Price putts horseshoed the hole to prevent them from getting there and Rory missed a 3 footer at St Andrews.

Those gods just struck down Pepperell with a double-bogey on 17.  He hit the hotel roof on 17?

Some info on Anthony Wall (one of the few I've not heard much, if anything, about). He has been around a while and he's quietly at -7 overall:

He's even par today through 11, and that means he has dropped 31 spots (from 21st to 56th place)! Players are passing by anyone who is just treading water today.

Spieth putter just off this week. Just not going in. I think unfamiliarity with these greens are showing its teeth.

Wonder if DJ would be more comfortable finishing 1 or 2 back of the leader today and maybe in the 2nd to last group tomorrow. Might alleviate some pressure tomorrow for him.

55 players within 6 of the lead as the leaders are midway through the front nine on Round 3, and nobody yet running away with this. Still lots left in Round 3, but this could be crazy down the stretch seeing who emerges.  Low scores are out there, but it's relatively tightly packed.

Quiet start for DJ and the amateur Paul Dunne is one shot off the lead.

Spieth has started getting the ball rolling in and goes to shared lead.

Still think Jordan is gonna need to get to about 12 or 13 under. Needs a couple more birdies. Someone is gonna break out a bit.

This is getting very bunched by some very big names. DJ gotta capitalize on the par 5 5th.

      Phil Mickelson Booted out of Farms Golf Club

      By Shindig · Posted

      While it does turn out that both Tiger and Phil are less squeaky clean than I previously believed, I don't think golf quite has the worst in professional sports.  Or maybe they're better at image management.   Obviously I'm not fond of Phil's issue we're discussing in this thread (or his involvement with LIV) or Tiger's choices of how to drive.  I used to really like Dustin Johnson and, even before the LIV situation, we started to hear rumors that he bought more snow than Seward, although I don't think those stories were ever substantiated.  Meanwhile, I did think of Anthony Kim as the "good, bad boy" of the tour for a while fifteen years ago because of his party persona -- and if it turns out the worst he did was show up hung over to play (barring what one thinks of LIV), that's pretty good.  And I'm still happy he found a way to get his life clean. If we contrast that with some other sports I enjoy, I'm sure we could find a nice long list of NFL players that, at one point in my life, I was quite fond of, we get far worse disappointments (to put it mildly).

      Answering that properly would land me in hot water, so I'm not going to. I don't think that many people would do that. I think that in certain circumstances many people would be willing to overlook someone doing that. But I was really referring to what I assumed was Tiger's transgressions (cheating on his wife) not Phil's.

      No! Is a large part of the human population selfish, apathetic and cuts corners in the name of self-preservation 'more than they would like to admit', yes. Degenerate, scum, etc?.. no!! Most humans/men would not grope a woman like Phil is accused of doing (I think he absolutely did). That is scum. I mean what % of men do you think would do that? Seriously??

      I don't think that is true at all. That is off-topic here, I think.
