My fav major, just ahead of the masters.
The first tee is pretty tight. Not many finding the fair way. Really interesting course. 5th is a super short par 5, only 480yards
As always with links courses, you need to take into account the prevailing wind. I played Royal North Devon once when the wind was opposite to the usual and a couple of guys drove a par 5. Normally lucky to get there in three.

Yeah mate, I’ve played a bit of golf before and my local track is links.
It’s a funny hole the 5th with second shot often longer than the first (I hate holes like that!).

It was a lovely golf course to play. I used to enjoy Formosa as well, but that's gone too

He had an amazing bit of luck chipping from the rough. Hit the flag pole and dropped within a few feet.
Previous hole missed a birdie from ~ five feet.

John Daly spotted at a Hooters in Liverpool after missing the Open cut
After an abysmal showing at the Open Championship at Royal Liverpool this week, John Daly decided to cure his sorrows by visiting a Hooters on Merseyside.
John Daly is a pro

@canefan he has a deal with Hooters US, so no surprises he visits them in the UK

I just thought it was because he likes buffalo wings
-
@mariner4life and now he sits 5 clear on -12 after 3 rounds.
Rahm, in 3rd sits 6 back on -6 after shooting 8 under, so he will be a threat if he can get going again, some quality behind Rahm too with Day, Fleetwood and Hovland on -5.
Fox had -2 to sit at +1 and move up into a T41st
