***Open Championship 2014...It's On***

[KJ]

I'm staying up all night, anyone else?

Let's go

 

[KJ]

Tigs already on suicide watch

 

[TheLaw4]

And now a three put bogey on #2. We'll see if he can bounce back at all. Sergio looking pretty good so far

 

[TheLaw4]

Helluva shot by Rory into #2 there

Let's go

I would love to KJ.

I have about a 15 hour day or working tomorrow so I am calling it quits after a few more holes. Slip in 6 hours sleep then watch a bit more in late morning.

Pinseeker, another one just now.

Big par putt for Tiger,

Love seeing Old Man Tom out there. The best was 2 years ago at Senior Open I was on his teebox here in town at 5 I think and he bitched out the young kid who was responsible for that tee box with his drawl. The Man indeed.

 

[TheLaw4]

Three Tiger stories in the first two and a half hours... c'mon ESPN.

 

[KJ]

Oops passed out, back to the grind

 

[JumpOnBoard]

had some vintage Tiger there for a bit.

 

[KJ]

Ernie just went tap tap tappy

Ernie just went tap tap tappy

3 putt on 1? I see his card, ugly through 2

 

[orangemonk]

sucks this is blacked out on espn3

 

[KJ]

3 putt on 1? I see his card, ugly through 2

a couple were one handed putts, one was backhanded

 

[JumpOnBoard]

sucks this is blacked out on espn3

shouldn't be

 

[captjohn67]

got some pennies on Broberg and Senden. Just hoping they're alive at the end. Almost played Sergio and still might. Hope Tiger is around at the end as well.

 

[orangemonk]

shouldn't be

blacked out across the US

ESPN might have the worst golf coverage of any network. They only show shots of about a dozen golfers, and most of those are putts. Then every 5 shots interrupted by a commercial, then some kind of story on Tiger or Phil. I understand that they try to cater to the casual golf fan, but it ain't the casual fans getting up early to watch this, or watch at work/take off work to watch. And the commentary is by far the worst. Can't imagine FOX will be worse than this next year

 

[Gandolf]

How about the Molinari brothers shooting matching 68s? Bestball score of 63.

 

[crawdads]

Rorys first round scores this year have been historically great.

Solid start by Tiger, surprising.

 

[KJ]

On to day 2, it's still early here and my ambitions are high to watch this thing overnight

Tom Watson is the man

 

[Canes1]

Interested in how the afternoon groups play today. Appears yesterday AM was a bit of an outlier.

 

[KJ]

Conditions just perfect for these afternoon groups right now

 

[B.A.R.]

Conditions just perfect for these afternoon groups right now

Yup, they got the best of both days so far.

 

[Gandolf]

Rory doing his Martin Kaymer impression.

 

[crawdads]

His top gear is like no one else on tour

 

[Toronto_Mike]

hahah well if the players can't bet, the dads can.

[crawdads]

Rory is putting on a clinic, unreal talent.

 

[Streakin]

Dustin Johnson being himself on a Sunday.

 

[crawdads]

 

[KJ]

Ridiculous scoring in general today

 

[Toronto_Mike]

craw,
that pic when I saw it live was just the most hilarious thing ever.

 

[crawdads]

Rorys swing is starting to look out of sync, his timing seems a tad off. Now he is also missing a couple putts he didnt miss all week.

 

[crawdads]

<s>@</s>shanebacon <small class="time"> 2m </small> Are there any houses left of the 10th hole? Asking for a friend.

 

[crawdads]

Sergio is another all timer talent wise, its unreal that he hasnt won more

 

[takeit]

is rory going to blow this?

 

[crawdads]

the last few holes should settle him for sure.

 

[crawdads]

lol be good? It was like 40 feet dude. cmon son.

 

[takeit]

the golf god is on sergio today

 

[Gorgolon Lives]

Fowler always chokes late. Horrible shot there ... might be the start of another collapse

 

[orangemonk]

would really love to see sergio make a real run at this

 

[orangemonk]

ruh roh rory

 

[Gorgolon Lives]

This course is so whacked

 

[crawdads]

Fowler has shown some nice toughness and a real competitor. Hes been exceptional in the majors this year.

 

[crawdads]

Great sunday by Sergio. Shot 66, just going up against an all time great golfer.

 

[crawdads]

Anyone see that Wozniaki won today also, first time this year..

 

[crawdads]

That Nike investment is looking pretty good right now. $$$
