It was a bit like all our yesterdays at The Open today as The Great White Shark spent most of the day at the top of the leader board. What with David Duval back in the running and playing well, we could have a real shock over the weekend. Still reckon Tiger would’ve pissed it if he’d been here.

My pick Jimenez had a ‘mare and my other hunch Garcia needs to go well tomorrow to get any where near winning. Should be interesting to say the least.

It’s been said on plenty of occasions , that the draw is vital if the weather is bad. Everyone toiled in the morning but there were some decent scores in the afternoon. My two picks, Garcia and Jimenez ( I got 28-1 for Jimenez) are there or there abouts. Tomorrow should be interesting when the draw changes it all around. It’s still a wide open Championship.
