Surely it's a mental thing? He comes here and he dominates at times, makes our best players look pedestrian. That win at Coolum last year was done with complete authority. His iron play is superb. I'm not a massive fan of him personally but he has the tools to compete and win a major, all mental for mine with Allenby.

Agree
 
British Open this week at St Andrews(going there in January), surley we will have an Aussie in the top 5, Ogilvy I believe has been out of form, however if he can get the flat stick going he would have to be a chance, maybe its time for Princess Scott or maybe its Bobbys time :hihi thats right Tiger,Phil, Ernie and co are playing ::)

Love the British Open, think the locals are flying and a UK victory likely. Poulter/Casey/Donald to get their first major or McDowell to go back to back. Ogilvy did well last time at St Andrews so here's hoping but his form with the putter of late is not promising. Maybe one of the Molinari brothers to break through at odds.

Agreed, I think McDowell is a sensational player and now he has the know how on winning a major his confidence will be sky high.

Yep, the open chamionship is the tops for mine. Rose the most likely of the locals id say. Kaymer a chance also. As for the aussies looking for another good showing by Goggin, Allenby & hopefully Leishman. Not too confident of Ogilvy.

You may well be right re UK Lads and as Azzamoot mentioned Rose has to be a big show, speaking of Rose did anybody catch the bull *smile* that Jim Nance rolled out when Rose won in the US the other month :vomit.

Speaking off the Molinari brothers a good mate of mine was in the Italian amateur team with them both, anyway when the younger one won the Us Am he invited my mate for a game at Augusta leading up to the Masters , my dumb ass mate declined as he had a couple of pro ams on the Saphire coast :eek:

This is probally not as bad , however another mate played the Open a couple years back and had the oppurtunity to have a practice round with Villegas, Scott and Norman , however his "new" caddy said that was in his original plan....

Just watching it now, geez the crowds are so much better and apreciative, compared to the septics.

T Woo looks to have the swing back, not so squatty

Poor day for the Aussies. Sendon is 5 off the pace, Allenby 6 off the pace and the rest of the big name Aussies 9-10 off the pace.

Blistering start by McIlroy at -9. Woods hovering at -5.

Looks like another disappointing major for the Aussies
 
Big John Daly was on fire at 7 under after 11 but finished 6 under.

Don’t count him out, he looks very fit and focussed and knows how to win a big one.

Not yet mb, just wait til the wind blows in the coming days. McIlroy & Daly are in great positions but the good links players will rise to the top. I expect Allenby to climb & Goggin as well.

Jumped on Allenby paying 4's for top 20 before the start of the open.
