148th Open Championship

JB making a complete arse of it now.

JB Holmes clarting his nappy, Rickie OB at the first, Westwood missing 2ft putts, Koepka four bogeys in a row..... someone, come on, get a score on the board that at least forces Lowry to take notice.

[Guest DAVIDB69]

MacIntyre finishes with a birdie for a 68. Tied 11th and hopefully if the weather worsens he could get a top 10.

Top 10 is big automatically in for next year

Yip, somewhere in the world Jean van de Velde is coming out in cold sweats

Getting ready to whip the socks and shoes off

Lowry is going to win this by about 10 shots. Fair play to him but it's rubbish for the rest of us.

It’s a very subdued watch now

[Tartan Dave]

Wish Lowry was out with someone who was flying. If fleetwood gets it going lowry might panic but can’t see it happening

Looks like Tommy's challenge gone now.

Listening to R5 Live, some Irish lassie commentating and just pronounced this beaut....”And Fleetwood’s third shot has toppled into a pot bunker making his next shot much difficulter.....”
Dear Christ......[emoji20]

Sky always need these narratives for their coverage, interesting they are fully behind the non uk player

The island of Ireland might be a phrase that takes off in Brexit year

[Tartan Dave]

Bets all look humped. Perhaps get a top ten on bob macintyre if a few folk drop shots

Yeah, nice comments from G.Mac re an Irishman leading the Open.

[pozbaird]

G-Mac’s accent though. FFS.

[Florentine_Pogen]

Grauniad update loves Oban Boab......”The young prospect and etiquette firebrand Bob MacIntyre sinks a long putt at 18, and that’s a fine closing round of 68. He’s -5, the new clubhouse leader. Kyle ‘Fore!’ Stanley has ended the week at +2, for the record. A fair chance the 22-year-old Scot will have earned himself an invite for Sandwich next year, because he’s currently tied for 12th. He only needs a couple of players above him to struggle coming home, and he’ll be in the top ten, exempt from qualifying. JB Holmes is certainly doing his best to oblige, dropping his latest shot at 6. He’s got two bogeys and a double to his name already, and has toppled down the standings to -6.”

[Mark Connolly]

GMac is a good guy. Shame is accent is an absolute shambles.

[pozbaird]

Game’s a bogey, to keep our interest up, let’s stick a pin where you think G-Mac’s accent is from.
