Update from first 5 groups through the first hole:

7 pars
3 bogeys
3 double bogeys
1 triple bogey
1 quadruple bogey

by skully Thu 20 Jul 2017, 07:43

Poor old Mark O'Meara, 6 over (he had the quad on 1) after 4.

My man Phachara Khongwatmai all pars through the first four.

DeChambeau will need a provisional too... That mound on the left seems to be a decent place to miss the fairway.

by tricycle Thu 20 Jul 2017, 08:08

Won last week on the PGA tour, now DeChambeau starts with a triple. Noren went with a driver on the first, and didn't get in trouble either.

by tricycle Thu 20 Jul 2017, 08:17

Birdie on the opening! Alex Noren gets it.

So has the bleating started yet?

I should learn to start shutting the f*ck up. His second on the sixth was one of the worst we'll see this week. Can't call it approach. 40 yards right and behind an electronic scorecard from the fairway

I would call that an approach.

Provisional for me. And put the provisional 40 yards the other way.

Will only be able to see the golf in another hour and a half, but the scoring looks to have improved.

by tricycle Thu 20 Jul 2017, 14:02

Dougie Donnelly and Sam Torrance in commentary. Perfect

by tricycle Thu 20 Jul 2017, 14:13

Conditions definitely eased off. Unfortunate for the very early starters.

by tricycle Thu 20 Jul 2017, 14:38

Bloody hell Koepka's on fire

by tricycle Thu 20 Jul 2017, 17:55

Charley Hoffman now at 5 under and a share of the lead. He's led each of the majors this season at some point.

by beamer Thu 20 Jul 2017, 19:33

Proverbial round of two halves for Rory, seemed a hopeless cause for even making the cut at the turn but back in 32 to finish +1.

by skully Fri 21 Jul 2017, 00:10

Kafka looked good as did Speith.

Sigh - poor Tommy shot a +6 in the first round.

Ugh - all the Aussies are going backwards so far today.

I should just give up. Rahm's had a 3 bogey start too.

by tricycle Fri 21 Jul 2017, 11:03

It was a good thing I didn't mention anything about my dark horse picks cos one of the two was ryan fox... 7 over

by tricycle Sat 22 Jul 2017, 15:20

Grace in the history books! Stupendous round

by WideWally Sat 22 Jul 2017, 15:34

First 62 in major history.

by beamer Sat 22 Jul 2017, 15:53

Debate over whether it was right for the announcer to reference "Beef" Johnston by his nickname yesterday... not sure what's new here, I don't remember them ever introducing Tiger Woods as Eldrick...
