    Amazing performance. He could win the whole thing, and he mightn't win the top amateur medal!

    He was saying he was getting mistaken for Spieth earlier this week, it will be the reverse if he keeps this going

    Nope, for consistency you can't beat Brett Rumford - 71/71/71. He might be tied 57th but he's the only player to return the same score on three days.

    Lovely interview there on the bbc, he didn't realise he was in the lead until the 10th hole.

    The top of the leaderboard isn't going to change now - Oostie , Paul Dunne and Jason Day joint leaders on -12. Does that means that Dunne will play with Oostie again tomorrow - because they would have submitted their cards more or less at the same time?

    Between Dunne and Harrington in the mix I'd love head on home at lunch time tomorrow and slob out on the couch to this.
    Stupid weather :(
    Stupid work :(

    C'mone Dunne!

    That should help the nerves, not that he has shown any so far

    Brilliant for him to have led The Open........that's bragging rights for the rest of his life.

    He has been very calm so far and let's hope he keeps that up and doesn't let the occasion get to him.

    Today will surely help him to decide to turn pro.

    Nerves don't seem to be a problem for him so far, but I'm glad he's out with Louis again/

    He did look nervous towards the final couple of holes, but he didn't play like he was nervous. Great to see. Was he interviewed after it?, would like to see what he had to say.

    He was by the BBC, seemed very calm.

    Basically said it was about getting the ball to do what he wanted it to do, that he will come out tomorrow and set himself a target in his head and aim for that.

    edit if you check out this link http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/golf/33586835 and scroll about halfway down the page there is an interview with him

    Interesting alright. 66 gives him a nett 71. Definitely in the buffer you would presume but would be nice to know what css was.

    Does this count as a handicap adjusting tournament?
