Anyone want to guess who will win the British Open this week? I like to hear what others are thinking. I was hoping for Tiger to win (I’m a fan of his). I just read online that Tiger did an interview and said Turnberry is a lot harder than people are letting on. I didn’t realize that it’s the 1st time he has played there. The British Open has not been hosted by Turnberry since 1994.
I’m still cheering for Tiger. Who are you cheering for?

I would just love to see Tom Watson do it again, his 65 today was a damn good round. At 59 it would really be nice to see an "old guy" (he's younger than me) win it for the rest of us and he has always been one of my favorite pros.

I'm with Fred but I don't know that he can do it 4 straight days. We'll see. I do think the course lends it self to the experienced golfer who's played links style and in the weather they play. So if he has a chance, it's at a course and conditions like this and not say the Masters.

Steve Stricker has stayed hot lately so maybe he has a chance. But I think he missed the cut last year...What about BOOOOOOOO????

Likely will be someone who can play a low shot to stay under the wind. Lots of bump and run. You figure the guys from GB have an edge with their experience.

I'm also with fjjra. As I watched some of the Open today, I found myself almost nostalgically wanting him to win. I'm not really a fan of Watson's, either. He's just been there so darn long. It would be nice to see a real veteran of the sport win.

Watson came out strong, just read an update that the weather is horrible right now. Terrible winds and a lot of the players are struggling. Tiger needs to pull it together if he has a chance. I do like the come from behind wins though.
