[Other Sport] The Open....(Golf)

[Monsieur Le Plonk]

Modest stakes, all E/W (6 places plus full pay out for ties) on Fowler at 16/1, Rose at 25/1 and Lawrie at 300/1

Currently in 2nd.
That and the Goose bets are looking quite tasty.

Long, long way to go yet.

Its one of those, where if it comes in I'll be simultaneously delighted, yet GUTTED that my stakes were so low!

Match Bet: Mickelson to beat Woods 10/11 at Laddies (nice way to double your money

Thought at the time this was virtually nailed on - good stuff pal

 

[DavidRyder]

I've got 10p each way on Streb at 250/1 - can cash out now at 87p [bead of sweat rolls down my forehead]. I think it's called an 'interest' bet rather than a 'get rich' bet!

 

[Prince Monolulu]

Just how long has Mark James been waiting for the chance to use 'more bite than Luis Suarez'?

 

[Bry Nylon]

Gutted that there aren't any late night (10:30 - midnight type of thing) highlights on BBC2. That has always been one of my Open Championship pleasures on day one and two - family in bed, me sitting up with a cold beer, Open Championship on the TV.

Play suspended. Greens waterlogged. Could be a very different day today if the wind carries on as it is at the moment.

 

[Prince Monolulu]

Gonna be a long day......

 

[dazzer6666]

Modest E/W punts for me on Rose, Schwarzel, Snedeker and Jiminez. I'm not very good at gambling.

 

[Nathan]

Danny Willett? Leads the open.

 

[sydney]

looks lovely there now....bit of breeze to bugger the late starters up hopefully looking for a good round from rose , kuchar and furyk ....,jimenez and jaquelin are gone berger still got a shout i suppose....the way lawrie played yesterday he was a damn good bet , like the saffer contingent also.

Great reception for Faldo coming up the 18th.

[MENTION=1416]Ernest[/MENTION] causing disruption, showing people where the 19th hole is...

The end of an era. The Open will not feel quite right without Tom Watson.

Play suspended. Dustbin and Speith on the 15th - very high winds forecast for the morning, so hopefully they will fritter loads of few shots away tomorrow. Willett, Lawrie, Warren, Donald and Rose all up there for the Brits and Paul Dunne, the Irish amateur is at -6! Good lad.

 

[Bry Nylon]

I'm going up there for the week, can't wait now as we booked the hotel 4 years ago!!

Hugely envious but I hope you are having a great time.

Yes, I know what you mean, but you can watch the day befores play (if it's not been rained off!!) via BBC iplayer, I've been watching it since 5am this morning, just fast forward it past the "rain stops play" bit at the beginning.

 

[Prince Monolulu]

Nice early start on the tele, a bit Mork and Mindy out there though

 

[Vegas Seagull]

Joke, stopped again, can't believe the mollycoddling they are giving these guys, get them out & get on with it

Its not mollycoddling.

The balls were being blown all over the place on the greens.

 

[Prince Monolulu]

Agree it WAS windy, but as pointed out by Mark James, to be proactive wouldn't hurt in times of adverse conditions.

Matey could have marked his ball whilst it was a couple of feet away very easily before just standing over it and watching prior to gesticulating wildly as it moved away.
