It really is as simple as that. He knew he was good enough but has said plenty of times he just wasn’t getting the breaks. He was playing with an elbow that essentially had nerve damage as well which was affecting his grip and swing. He couldn’t take time off injured because he couldn’t afford to. He was fighting for every dollar and fedex point possible so couldn’t afford to take time away until he was left with no choice.

Great bogey free round, didn't see him on the TV but was only dipping in and out of it. A win obviously would be brilliant and with that start he has given himself every chance but even another top ten finish would solidify his world and fedex rankings. Such a treat to be able to think about watching him at the weekend with him being in the frame rather than where we were this time last year worrying whether he'd make the cut (when he was actually in the competition to start out with). Certainly makes Sunday nights much more interesting.

Didn't watch it all yesterday but didn't see any shots from spyglass. Should be featured over the weekend.

Its not simply a matter of signing up.

He needs to earn a card to play on the European Tour. He can currently play a number of ET events on invites, such as the Orish open.

However, if he maintains his status in the world's top 50 he should skate in as he would be playing in all the majors and wgc events. One big finish alone in any of those would do enough to get him a European Tour card. He then simply needs to commit to playing a few ET events outside of the majors & wgc events to satisfy tour requirements.

Wall to wall coverage of his group for the last hour on Sky Sports

PokeHerKing · 04-02-2022 7:33pm

Lips out for a bird, 3 putts for a bogey followed up with 2 birds. Leading on his own now at -10

He's top 50 in the world, he can play in any tournament in Europe.

PokeHerKing · 04-02-2022 8:22pm

Out to -12 now. He's playing absolutely superbly. Has the driver long and on a string and the putter is as hot as you could wish for.

loadwire · 04-02-2022 8:43pm

And another bird -13

Dr. Bre · 04-02-2022 8:45pm

Seamus in control here

eagle eye · 04-02-2022 8:46pm

He's on fire, he could be -16 by the end if the round the way he is going.

Mantis Toboggan · 04-02-2022 8:52pm

Another birdie phenomenal stuff

Mushy · 04-02-2022 9:10pm

4 ahead, another chance for birdie on 13 to make it 5 in a row.

Edit: lip out, par it is

Mushy · 04-02-2022 9:41pm

Birdie on the par 5 to get to -15

DellyBelly · 04-02-2022 10:02pm

Unreal display... I normally like a competitive final round but for this week I hope Seamus romps it home

Yeah I love it being close but I'd enjoy Seamus running away with it more.

PokeHerKing · 04-02-2022 10:13pm

Regardless of whether he wins this or not, he'll have raised the roof on his profile over there. Featured group and puts on this display. Phenomenal stuff.

Mushy · 04-02-2022 10:13pm

Extends the lead to 6

The Big Easy · 04-02-2022 10:18pm

Sadly only got to put it on half an hour ago, at least I'm getting to enjoy it now!

Conditions not quite like the 2000 US Open but a double digit win would be pretty special all the same! 😄

Deeper Blue · 04-02-2022 10:21pm

Some performance so far. Love it. Hope he wins by 10

Icemancometh · 04-02-2022 10:28pm

Did well to limit the damage there. Hope he finishes with a birdie.

Icemancometh · 04-02-2022 10:57pm

10 birdies, some round.

hawkwing · 04-02-2022 10:59pm

66-1 now for the Masters, got 100-1 last weekend. EW 6 places is better than throwing money away on the lotto

boardise · 04-02-2022 11:01pm

He's got an all round game but his short game in particular is sublime.

Lad GAGA · 04-02-2022 11:06pm

Another brilliant round, at least we got to see this one. His overall game seems really strong but his short game in particular was absolutely brilliant tonight. Here's hoping he can keep it going over the weekend.

rickis tache · 04-02-2022 11:13pm

Simply stunning round by seamus. Great to see and if I was honest I would say I expected him to burn himself out. Still delighted he's proving me wrong.
