Tommy only 2 off the lead now. Been so impressed with how he's handled the pressure and expectation this week. He's having the time of his life.

What a birdie putt from Tommy on the first, must have been over 50 ft. Young absolutely flying and Scottie finally found his touch on the greens Things hotting up nicely. This Open deserves a classic finish

If only....

Madness!

This is bonkers

He's a joy to watch

Yes, the Mike Flowers Pops version

Disappointed with Tommy's back 9, I really thought he had it going at the turn. And if Scottie would have putted just half decent this week he'd be winning by miles. Unless someone shoots the lights out early doors tomorrow you've got to fancy Sam Burns. He's probably in the top 4 or 5 best current golfers to not have won a major yet, so it could be his time.

Rory bang on as usual. It is all performative and attention seeking when it comes to Bryson. One of the most insecure sportsmen of all time.

I see the winners all get a Super Bowl type ring. How very American.

He's stomping around like an Elephant on the grass behind the ball as soon as he sees it. He knows he can't get a club on it. Definately helps his swing path to the ball so no doubt for me.

2 shot penalty for improving his lie. Looked to me like he was dancing all over the fescue to flatten it down but maybe I'm saying that because I've always thought he's a fake **** (and he's a Trump lover)

Nice to see him bogey the last for a 62. No one wants to see an Aussie hold the lowest ever major round, never mind a LIV Aussie.

Can't remember the last time I saw crowds this big at The Open. It's absolutely heaving at Birkdale.

This Open is going to be epic. Got a feeling we're in for a classic for the ages.

Give it Anthony Barry. I don't care anymore

Close thread. Bin.

Fvck off Tuchel. Join Ericsson and Capello and get in the bin. I want an English manager next and his name is Wayne Rooney

And here's the BBC unlucky loser montage. Fvck off

We've tried everything else so why not him

I've done a complete 180 on Rooney after this evening. I'd walk through a brick wall for him
