I'm not on instagram so cant link this properly, assume it was during the Open build up...?<br><br><a class="bbc_url" href="
Thought it might have been Rory's 6 shots to get out of the bunker but was Daly with a pint! -

I've watched a fair bit and yep go Henrik!<br><br>
Course isn't overly long but so susceptible to the conditions. First 3 par 4s are under 400 yards and Jason day (and a few others) were firing the drives right up there. There is a 100 yard par 3 too! -

<p>The Two da Fronce per chonce? That's on now too.</p> -
<p>Yeah the hours aren't great for it hey. Over here the leaders don't tee off until around midnight, which means a long night if you want to stay up. I have watched a fair bit of the earlier groups though.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>It's been hugely affected by the draw - the late/early guys had a big advantage. 10 of thecurrent top 11 were from that half of the draw.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>All of the Aussies have bombed out, and really the two-horse race doesn't interest me a huge amount. I'm cheering for Henrik, obviously, but not enough to stay up until 4am doing so.</p> -
<p>Extraordinary last day of which I saw none but 2 leaders are 4 shots clear going into the final day and shoot 63 and 65 - talk about dominance! Next best score was Rory's 67 on the final day and most struggled to break par. Oddest major leaderboard I've seen in a long time.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Stenson -20</p>
<p>Mickelson -17</p>
<p>Holmes -6</p>
<p>Stricker -5</p>
<p>McIlroy</p>
<p>Hatton</p>
<p>Garcia -4</p> -
<p>I don't think I would have mind if Mickleson won it in the end.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Talk about wisdom of age. Taught the young ones a lesson in conditional play.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Also when you have a lead over the pack like that it can be dull but it was one of the most exciting final days play I can remember</p> -
<p>Just watched the final round replay now. Never seen anything like that, two blokes going toe-to-toe for 18 holes in a major with daylight 3rd.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Stenson... wow. And Phil shot 65! Just phenomenal. They will make a documentary about that round someday, truly memorable stuff. And they walked off the 18th green together, arm in arm.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Find it hard to keep my totally irrational hate of Mickelson up after that.</p> -
