If they start at 3pm R2 should be finished by 5.30pm. Back out in 3 balls off two tees at 6.30pm might get 9-12 holes in and then 7am start tomorrow and play to a completion?

Spieth basically having a whinge as he came off at 15 Grant to the officials

By:
first it was early/late with best starting times. then back to late/early. then early/late. then late/early.
and now probably best for spieth/johnson |

This is the same as last year when Rory's mum was setting the t off times for her boy when it was a bit windy get the f back on the course and lets see how good you are
|
|
By:
Still going to be windy when they get out there later but tomorrow looks dead calm which is why I think they might try and cram it in
|
|
By:
Get round 2 done today.
Give everyone a break. Round 3 tomorrow. Round 4 Monday. SIMPLES. |
|
By:
A plan would be nice if the R&A could tell us though Ski? I think they want to finish it Sunday as Monday would be a total anti climax
|
|
By:
Whos to say weather would be any better tomorrow or monday. Betfair should void all bets complete farce
|
|
By:
its abit hard for them to tell us when they dont know what weather is going to do

The Open retweeted
The R&A @RandA 20m20 minutes ago Saint Andrews, Scotland Weather update: We will provide further information at 2pm. #TheOpen |

Their updates consist only of telling us when the next update will be

Sounds like Stevies picks have had a mare.

Me having a cynical mind, I'm betting that all those who want it voided have a nasty red book and all those who want it completed have a nice pretty green book.
Me, I'm in the 'Void it camp'.  |

Admit it frames you clicked on his name to see if he had put up any selections on The Open thread
 |

By:
Never knew you could do that ,honest.i'm in the void it camp myself but the trouble with majors is it ain't happening.

the scourge of modern Britain,the elf and safety mob surely have something to do with this,force em out in a hurricane imo

Super Hans, re your 1020 post, Garcia is on the 16th green in two; difficult putt from (perhaps) 20-25 ft.

By:
what a farce of a tournament, the rain I can undertand but the wind, GTF, its the british open not the p u s s y USPGA
|

Wasn't the open at Carnoustie played in very strong winds?
|
|
By:
grant - you cant play whilst ball is moving on the green pal
|
|
By:
I can vaguely remember when greg norman won in 1986 it was torrential rain and gales for the whole 4 days
|
|
By:
1999 Carnoustie was as bad
|
|
By:
Everyone should calm down cant play if the ball is moving on the greens.Wont start until 3 .00 at the earliest so only way it can finish on Sunday is if they dont do a redraw after round 3 as you cant play 2 tee start at St Andrews.
|

Just updated the spreadsheet. Can escape with a £30.00 loss, amazed considering I have 11 out of 19 available at 1000.
I think I'll stay in, haven't given up yet. Got 5 of the top 10 and don't fancy 4 of the reds. Might back Rose and Matsuyama a bit later, to give me 7 out of 11. Good luck with yours.  |
|
By:
They play a two tee start tournament at St Andrews every year.
|
|
By:
no way they play 2 tee start for a major too far from practice putting green at least a 15min buggy ride plus you cant have buggies flying along fairways etc when the other guys are trying to play. Guess it could be done but cant see it happening.
|
|
By:
I favour 2-tee start
in the meantime horse racing |
|
By:
bbc puts tennis on.no doubt the golf will start just after the murray brothers game has finished.just a coincidence?

the 10th tee is about 11/2 miles from the clubhouse

use a sand buggy along the beach

By:
Monday finish
|
|
By:
mini buses like they this morning

There is another golf course between the Old Course and the beach, there is no problem at all getting the players out there if they want to. I personally hope they just play 18 on Sunday and then final round Monday. |

I was joking,but I'm willing to try anything
