I'm sure newspaper sub-editors are planning "WORK OF ART FOR LOWRY" type headlines for tomorrow. The BBC's helpful plugging of Tommy Fleetwood last week hasn't backfired for once. Should be a good day for Europe again (fingers crossed).
I hope Royal Portrush responds today! It was always my fear that in benign conditions, they would kill her stone dead. Lowery did that for sure yesterday, and although I don't wish him poor luck, or a poor round today, we need to see some difficulties thrown the way of the eventual winner and see him a worthy champion by overcoming them!!
Was becoming a little raucous yesterday from a small number of spectators. Casey and Lowery reacted badly to a couple of things. Put a lid on it today, and let the world see the very best we have to offer!!
Just a personal plea...can we please find a sound proof booth for radar??
What is needed is pouring rain and 50mph winds blowing in all manner of directions. That would scupper em

I think I agree with that!! I am saddened to listen to too many voices In the sky comm box hope for more calm conditions - presumably because they believe more and more birdies/eagles etc is what people want to see flying in left, right and centre. I believe they are wrong, and like the U.S. Open, I hope and believe that the R&A don't want such an outcome.
Sorry, but for the big bucks, need to present a few difficult hurdles to 'jump' Royal Portfrush is often shrouded in cloud and rain as you might imagine. Links golf needs it!
Well, Lowry got it done yesterday really, much like Tom Lehman back in the day (and maybe other examples), so Well Done to him. Rather a lot of waffle about "oh an Irish winner, the island of Ireland, a true Irish hero transcending the two countries, like Barry McGuigan etc".
Fleetwood only needed to stay ahead of any challengers to be 2nd. A good top 10 from the European POV, and even then still 4 US guys in it. Molinari didn't really give much of a defence, but he did well today.
Sad for some who had nightmares like Justin Rose and especially JB Holmes, from 66 on Thursday to an 87 today.
I heard the last hour or so on 5live, improved from last year.
Back at Sandwich from next Thursday
Hideki Matsuyama had to withdraw because he's got covid, and Bubba Watson is out because a contact has covid.
I'm having an each way bet on Matthew Fitzpatrick at 40/1.
Oosthuizen leads after round 1 at -6 with Spieth & Harman on -5. Best placed Brits at -3 are Sullivan, Willet, Rose, Fleetwood & Senior. Casey is -2 & Mcllroy Even Par.
Surely Oosthuizen isn't going to finish 2nd yet again in a major.
Is he
