    One over through seven, the good scores seem to be on the back nine so it could be a good day yet

    Bird on the 8th

    They played this course in 2005. Paddy missed the cut on +13. Seen an interview with him last night saying he has no recollection of the course and had to look up his score.

    That was around the time his Dad died

    +1 for the day.

    Not a bad round by any means.

    Leading Irish player after day one. Nice one, Padraig.

    very tight leaderboard at the moment, that double was expensive...at the moment he's looking over his shoulder to the cut line....had he parred it, he's on the verge of top 20....hopefully he plays solid and makes it to the weekend....seems to be playing solidly at least...fingers crossed!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,991 ✭✭✭sword1


    Par,par start, 16 more like that would be good, never that straight forward though


  • Registered Users Posts: 743 ✭✭✭Dayor Knight


    Currently at -1 for the day after 13, even overall. Keep it going, Paddy.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,622 ✭✭✭Ruu


    Sank a monster on 3 to get back to E. Cut at +2 (floating between +1 and +2).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,847 ✭✭✭Armchair Andy


    Is he finishing on the 2 par 5s?

    No, on holes 8/9 (par 4 & 3).

    Probably for the best

    Dropped one 7 to go +1 overall, should be around for the weekend.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,722 ✭✭✭abff


    Sank a nervy 5 footer for par on the last to make sure he'll be around for the weekend.


  • Registered Users Posts: 20,341 ✭✭✭✭Rikand


    Holes the putt on live TV. Clutch!

    He'll be delighted with that. A good week so far.

    Splendid from Padraig - great to have an Irish player for the weekend.


  • Registered Users Posts: 21,096 ✭✭✭✭PARlance


    Peaking nicely for Olympic Gold!


  • Registered Users Posts: 743 ✭✭✭Dayor Knight


    Padraig up to -1 after 9. -2 for the day so far. Going along nicely! One or two more birdies , and no mess-ups, on the back nine would be a really good day.

    He's had one more bird on the twelfth, and shaved the hole for another on thirteenth. We're actually getting to see a few of his shots now. As I say that, he's just hit a wedge dead on the 14th. And sank the putt! This is quite enjoyable. He looks quite relaxed.

    All of a sudden he is nearly inside the top 10. -3 overall (-4 today). 2 par 5s left.


  • Registered Users Posts: 743 ✭✭✭Dayor Knight


    And finishes with another birdie on 18. Round of 65, up to -4 and into top 10, at least for now. Great day, feels just like old times! Well done, Padraig.


  • Registered Users Posts: 22 Steve2016


    Fantastic round today....without trying to put a downer on it I'd be pleasantly surprised if he's still top 20 by the end of the day....


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,074 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Good man Padraig! Great he got his round over before any weather delay which keeps threatening.

    No downer, he was outside top 60 at beginning of play. Great to see him to low in a major again.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,775 ✭✭✭Panrich


    If they get no play for the rest of the day, then he'll have a bit of an advantage tomorrow. A good chance to have a high finish.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,074 ✭✭✭✭vienne86


    Play abandoned for the day and the course is flooded. Huge advantage for the players who have completed their third rounds already. Sky giving Padraig a huge plug now - great to see.

    he can have a longer lie on tomorrow. Play gone for the day, 2 full rounds for most of the leading pack
