Who do you have? I think Louis oosthezen or koepka will win. Green speeds aren’t like lightning should help louis putting but I’m going with Brooks

Morikawa is on a run this morning.

Morikawa is a bad *** talent.
Good spokes person for golf.
He's young.

No wind, No Rain, No Elements...
..64 is impressive, no matter.

Looks like San Diego not England

Those courses depend on the elements to make them hard. Green speeds are 10 in case there is 30mph wind. Without weather, not as hard. Now, those that went off yesterday early will go off later today when the tide shifts, the winds should come up.

Played in the British Mid Am at Muirfield once. Went off late first day then early next day. Played same tees as pros did, shot 155. Came out later the second day to see if I was going to make match play, the weather was dead calm the last three hours. Missed match play by 0ne shot. Would have loved to have had three hours of calm either day. Did get to play some really nice courses after that. Gullane 1 is where Fowler won the Scottish Open and still has tank traps at the edges of the course. North Berick is the home of the original Redan hole.

Congratulations..


If weather is perfect, British Open can easy for the pros and more boring for TV.

But I'll watch more closely Sunday, like everyone.

Morning Golf is wonderful TV

I don’t mind Louis at all he’s been playing great lately plus I love that UPS logo he sports. I don’t mind Spieth or Morikawa either, but I’m hoping DJ makes a run

I said my top two were Louis and Koepka. Might shape up as a tremendous final day

Anyone ever seen better weather at the open? It’s been basically calm conditions so far.
