Anyone else looking forward to the toughest challenge in golf starting tomorrow at 2pm exclusively on Sky Sports??

Should be a rip-snorter of an event, this event seperates the men from the boys and is a true test of a golfers quality and skill.

Got to be Tiger for me to win this, after the vile racist comments made by Garcia it would be fitting that he once again proves his place as the very best there's ever been in this sport. I do worry for the reaction Sergio will get from a very angry American audience, perhaps if he has been given a 10 tournament ban it would have allowed the situation to be diffused.

Who is your money on??

But Tiger likes fried chicken, he's even said so in the past.

European winner for me this year. McDowell maybe.

I am reliably informed by the American experts, I listen too.
This Open will be soooo low scoring, the 63 score record is in doubt.

Apparently it's so wet there, the rough won't come into play, and the greens will be like dart boards.

With that in mind, I couldn't get 'lowest score' odds from Sky, so I had a very small bet on there being an Albatross (the odds were shockingly low), and a small bet on Tiger getting an Albatross, as that was 100/1.

Fill you boots, chaps, Stat has spoken.

Yup, been laying on the sofa with my foot elevated since Friday.

I'm going insane being housebound. I never sit still for more than an hour at any time, and it's driving me mad. Stupid weak foot. Fine for a couple of months then my ligaments just give out. Been happening for the last 5 years now. NHS won't do naff all to help. Just get sent home with anti inflammatories and told to stay off it. Doesn't help with work though. My boss is doing his nut too.

Ah. One thing about working in IT, I can do it anywhere, so I have to be really sick not to be able to work (although, if I'm working at home, I do it lying on the sofa with my laptop, with Sky Sports on anyway).
