Title: [SPOILER] Open Championship- Thursday [SPOILER]
Post by: Aske on July 19, 2007, 06:41:00 AM
woods with another disappointing opening day
few drivers, few made putts boring -2

mcginley blistering early start falters a bit coming in  down from -6 to -4 after tussling with #16

brier (who??) -3

els with some great ballstriking but horrid putting

vijay hangs a birdie bid on #1 on the edge, but gets a birdie @ #2

garcia about to tee off

mickboobs looking skinnier yet.  maybe harmon has him on a bigger diet

As much as I'd like the Mick to keep it up I don't think he'll continue to make 20 foot putts like they're tap-ins.

Tiger's striking the ball very well and is on the first page.  Disappointing?  Boring? 

Els needs to start hitting some greens.  I left home after 5-6 holes but it seemed the scrambling was keeping him in it.

Nice to see all the cheers for Lawrie.  Disappointing career after the '99 victory.

yes, i want to see the usual 'dumb' woods golf-  spray n pray with driver, scrambling up and down pars.  where did this 'smart'  golf come from again?  did he watch videos of his last few opens ?

LOL
it does make you wonder what his career *could* have been with some discipline and focus.   accomplishments- probably a ton. personality- none

The belly putter's working well for Garcia, and putting has been his downfall for the most part.  Maybe this is his breakthrough year.

i'd love nothing more than to see garcia finally step up to the plate and win one.  I think that confidence would propel him to challenge woods a lot more often

I think it would be great for the game to have a colourful, charismatic challenger for Woods.  The fans would benefit.

That don't do *feces* for me winning a prize.

He'll have to wait for next year.
