    Some tee times here for people interested:
    (1st tee)
    9.22 (McDowell, Hearn, Broberg)
    9.44 (Lowry, Gallacher, Manaserro)
    10.50 (Garcia, Fowler, Moore)
    11.01 (McIlroy, F. Molinari, D. Johnson)

    (10th tee)
    9.11 (Clarke, Kuchar, Mahan)

    I know there are many more there that are in contention I just picked some players Ive been following. So latest tee off is 11.01, going to be a morning packed for golf. Not going to be allowed sleep in now ha.

    Looking at the rain radar- the course is going to be absolutely soaked over the next 3 hours or so. It's going to be a real test for them this morning.

    Not on BBC until 10. This "U draw" is a load of balls. They say it's done in the spirit of fairness.... how is it fair that the middle lads tee off first and get the bulk of the bad weather and the guys who just scraped into the cut ... Tiger.... gets to tee off last!!

    Poor Shane really has been screwed over this week. Just about to tee off now.

    Rain shouldn't be a big issue. wind is the killer and on bbc it seems to be pretty calm. i see shane has got a birdie on 2 so up to -2. he should be aiming for top 15/20 finish and anything else a bonus.

    Seems like there's birdies to be made, whether theres enough of them to catch up is another thing.

    Great shot by Johnson.

    Could well be a 2 shot swing for Rory... not the start he wanted!

    Poor putt by McIlroy.
    Woods has lost that aura. Sad to see.

    Was there any reason given for this 'u draw?'

    The only thing I saw was a re-tweet from The Open twitter account...

    The Open ‏@The_Open
    "RT @iaincartergolf U draw today provides equity so players on same score don’t tee off 2 hours apart. Coincidence Woods last off 10th."

    Thankfully.

    Only reason I don't like this u draw is that it'll be over too early. C'mon rain delay!
