Pretty impressive round for Phil given these conditions. He said the course/wind layout is good for a left handed player.

Oh Phil.....
Da **** does that mean...
late afternoon guys get the weather break today. We'll see what happens when it flips tomorrow.
Phil talking hook winds, slice winds, into and down. I can’t get enough.

Here you go. All about the winds as he goes out and back in apparently.

So Woods got a break and shot 79? (sarcasm)
"I'm sure that won't make a bit of difference for those of you who enjoy a baseless rage over the decisions of a few teenagers."
Confused, so the back nine has the prevailing wind and draw is better? RH golfers can draw too you know... Unless left is bad???
I'm beyond over Brandel Chamblee.
He's ranting again about how courses not being set up to penalize players who hit it longer and rely on their scrambling to win. Of course no one mentions that's probably because Brandel wasn't a long hitter and somehow thinks driving distance followed by quality pitching and putting isn't near as important as hitting 265 yard drive down the middle like he used to in order to set up that middle iron to the green.

Don't listen to him. He was getting into betting advantages and he has never gambled.AggieDruggist89 said:

Totally expected day 1 leader here.
So will he make the cut this week? He wouldn't be the first round 1 leader to miss the cut at The Open.
Oh no doubt...
He's talking nonsense jibberish. just pissed off he has to wear joggers after losing a bet to Grant Horvat.

I'll say makes cut but shoots significantly worse tomorrow, like 77.
Is it windy in the afternoon?
I hope it's gale force wind and they all shoot in the 80's.

Let's go for hurricane force winds and scores in the 90s.
Wind is only going up to 18mph... maybe gust up to 25.
They'll shoot in the 70's.
They'll shoot in the 70's.

We want pain and suffering with many players seeking out F golf to vent their frustrations.

Completely insufferable. I mute every time he comes on.
Tiger at +11 and on the day +3 so far.
He just can't do it anymore. Wishing he could be competitive.

He really is difficult to listen to and where he went to college explains his constant whining.

What he needs to do is play a tournament before a major. If he's feeling that much better then it shouldn't be a problem.
Lowry should get another penalty for taking so damn long on this drop
10% Diet Coke
90% Jim Beam

Brown to himself: "Piss poor shot, lad"....then gets an awesome kick out right into the fairway. Dude is living right so far.
Wish he'd hang it up at this point. He'd get smoked on the Senior Tour at point
No he wouldn't
Tiger would dominate the champions tour, imo. I remember Trevino, Jack, Irwin... Absolutely dominate the senior tour as rookies. Jack was winning a ton and said, this isn't fun and quit.

Colin Montgomerie "Aren't we there? I'd have thought we were past there. There is a time for all sportsmen to say goodbye, but it's very difficult to tell Tiger it's time to go. Obviously, he still feels he can win. We are more realistic.
Tiger -
"Well, as a past champion, I'm exempt until I'm 60. Colin's not," the 48-year-old Woods told reporters. "He's not a past champion, so he's not exempt. So he doesn't get the opportunity to make that decision. I do."
Justin Thomas hitting the eject button. +6 through his first 6. +3 total

I thought Brown might do that but he is hanging in well.
Hang 'em up Tiger, it's over.
I'm not sure that would be the case.AggieDruggist89 said:

However, if both he and Phil did join full time it would completely reinvent that tour. (yes I know the PGA wouldn't let Phil).
Yep. Time for promotional events and ceremonial tee shots unless something drastically changes.AgOutsideAustin said:

Watch The Open on days like this (ie normal Scottish weather) makes you wonder why do we have the game of golf. I would have given up after a couple rounds.
Rory's having a good time
Tiger just looks miserable every time he plays. As the round goes on he just looks beat down……..like an old man. I just can't see him competing at the level needed to win for 4 rounds.
