Lowry on quite the charge. Even with a four shot lead though, I still don't feel comfortable for him given how some players did on the first round.

 

[Anil]

The weather forecast for Sunday is heavy rain and strong winds, it will be challenging for Lowry but a 4 shot lead should help...

 

[Niall]

That was awesome from Lowry especially the celebrations.

 

[King Pietersen]

Shibuno is a ****ing stud. 31 back nine on Major debut to win her first Major, absolutely slammed that final put into the back of the hole. Sucks for Lizette, really wanted her to win it but Shibuno has been great all week, what a character!

They have the upper hand in the foursomes too so far, we may be headed for a rout at Royal Melbourne...

 

[Anil]

well done to woods and the u.s team!

 

[andmark]

Boo!

 

[Anil]

don't worry, you guys will get to beat us next year at whistling straits...

 

[Magrat Garlick]

fair to say they should have shut down the sport after this

 

[Anil]

Anyone watching golf after they restarted? Nick Watney becomes the 1st player to test positive for the virus...

 

[Lillian Thomson]

Denny McCarthy tested positive for the virus after the first round of the Travelers Championship and withdrew. Brooks Koepka and Graeme McDowell withdraw from a tournament because their caddies tested positive.

Ryder Cup postponed for a year.

 

[grecian]

Ryder Cup postponed for a year.

Sensible move, it was wa postponed for 9/11, so not without precedent, these team events are all about the ebb and flow of the crowd reaction, would have been spectacularly pointless without it.
