I'll be there on Saturday.  Tent at the 17th looks like the spot to be.  Showing the Lions test on a big screen as well.  Does anyone know how long the train takes from Connolly Station out to Maynooth?

40 mins if you get a commuter train. 30 mins if you get a Sligo train.

Carton House would be a fair trek from the station if you're walking. It's probably another 40 mins.

Did anyone see Bubba Watson acting like a proper cu*t to his caddie when he had a triple bogey 6 last night ?

Mild enough, I'd say.

Seve was famous for giving his caddies the hairdryer. One day he took a club too long. Everybody was waiting for it. Surprisingly, Seve just said, "Is not your fault. Is my fault."

Then he added, "Because I LISTEN TO YOU!"

Dont see the problem, he gets paid plenty of money to do a job, if he does it poorly why wouldn't the player get pissed with him.

Although Bubba still is a tit all the same.

Do you think the caddy got the yardage wrong or that Bubba mishit the shot???  You can also hear bubba blaming the wind mid-flight

He over hit his 3rd from the drop zone as well... was that the caddy's fault as well?

Golfers will blame anything they possibly can - they'll only blame themselves as a last resort!

5 Iron huh?? Well you're fired!!

McIlroy 2+ after 3 holes

[cornerback]

Obviously early days but those starting on the back 9 seem to be getting it tougher:
Of the 8 players that are under par at the min only 1 of those started at No.9
And 12 out of the 17 that are over par started at No. 9

[Billys Boots]

McIlroy still on +2 after 13.  Lowry jointly leading after 13 on -4.

[cornerback]

Lowry finished at -5.

Wee e/w on Lowry, Rumford, Fisher & Luiten

Rumford finished level & the other 2 not out until the afternoon.

Weather similar to some of the days last year. It rained pretty solidly on til the afternoon of the Saturday we went.
