    Ye had to feckin say it lads didn’t ye! 3 putts just after you both posted. He is playing very well though

    Rory has a good chance with this one. Probably his favourite course and a less than stellar top of the leaderboard. But still a long way to go.

    Nice turnaround from yesterday.

    Anyone see much of his round. His driving was atrocious yesterday. Was he hitting his irons close or was he just making some 20 30 footers.

    Mainly good iron play. I was watching it on and off. He holed most of the putts in the 6-8 foot range. Missed one alright when he three putted. Made one nice putt from 20 foot I think. He had a couple of wild drives but even though he didn’t hit many fairways he was often just off in the first cut.

    Rory leads

    Let’s ****ing Go baby!!! Playing beautifully tee to green and he is banging in the putts.

    Love that he going to stick with a fade off the tee with driver. It’s what the majority of the other top players is such as DJ, brooks and Rahm. More control and more consistent and still have the length.

    Seen the updates on twitter, turned it on to see him miss the bogey putt, turned it off :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,582 ✭✭✭Dr. Bre


    Ouch !


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    Really nice start. 1 under thru 3 but still 2 behind. Poor wedge on 2 alright after the longest drive on that hole since 2017!!!

    Solo lead now at 9 under.

    Mitchell losing his head . Rory v wood


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,901 ✭✭✭blackcard


    Amazingly, Rory has hit only one out of eight fairways, rest of his game is very good. Woodland has hit 7 out of 9 fairways


  • Registered Users Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    Getting tight at the top now. Still holds a one shot lead but plenty of holes to go.

    Look at Ancer or Hovland to set the clubhouse lead.

  • Registered Users Posts: 17,787 ✭✭✭✭Mantis Toboggan


    Big par save there at 13.

    Gets to 10 under now with the par 5 to come.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,901 ✭✭✭blackcard

    Starting like look of Anser more and more


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,787 ✭✭✭✭Mantis Toboggan

    He’s not hitting many fairways but he’s not missing by miles either. This course is very easy to be blocked out by trees if you’re wild but he hasn’t had that once today.


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,298 ✭✭✭✭lawred2


    Gorgeous iron shot


  • Registered Users Posts: 384 ✭✭rooney30


    I thought Rory stinks when in contention on a Sunday . This can’t be happening !!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 346 ✭✭frink


    Looks a different player this week. Some lovely iron shots and brilliant par saves. Tidy up his driver abit and hopefully he continues to get his game back
