Ricky Fowler looks like he's heading to a rave in Craigavon.

Not exactly sure...just a hunch

Clarke having a rip roaring start, birdied first and has a tiddler for birdie on the second.

Ah crap I put the scud on him, misses a sitter!

Throughout his career Clarke has been infamous for missing those short putts, there seems to be one every round! Hope they don't come back to haunt him. Would love to see the big guy win it.

Though I don't think there would be as much debate regarding his religious/political/national belief's as there was after Rory's win

I think it's a debate we have to have though.

Clarke should be 7 or 8 under right now, needs to hit the putt putt course.

Puff piece on Mc Ilroy on ESPN here with an interview with Mickey Mc Donald and some scenic pictures of Holywood (however they managed that). As only the americans can do though, now it looks from the coverage that Fowler is playing on his own.

Might it not just be part of a munfacturer's badge? I have a GAA umbrella bought in Dublin, made in GB with union jack on label.
