Maroon Sailor Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 19 players within 5 shots of the lead going in to the final round. Could be another dramatic final round at Carnoustie Best course on The Open rota imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruyff Turn Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Should a cracking day tomorrow, if the wind players a part, anyone in the top 20 is in with a chance. 4 shots could be dropped pretty easily, especially for those last out, might be hard to gain though. It's been the best open in years. Best open course as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victorian Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Hoping for another Tiger charge but not likely. Spieth cannot lose this in this mood. He's virtually the complete, all round links player. Very similar to Seve Ballesteros in that it really matters not a **** where it goes off the tee, the various recoveries are just sublime. Seve, Tom Watson and a carefree club player all rolled into one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alwaysthereinspirit Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 I think anyone in the top 12 hitting a 66 will win. If the wind kicks up as expected. A few will be going backwards or not moving. Could be a great final day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 With three players on -9, in decent conditions you might expect one of them will score pretty well. Maybe a 67 or 68. That would set a target of maybe -12 or -13. The guys on -6 and -7 would need a 64 or 65 to get on terms. The guys on -5 would potentially need to be 63. The conditions could become trickier whereby none of the leaders score in the 60s. There's 10 between -7 and -5. If the target becomes 65 or 66, maybe a couple of them will challenge. Hopefully we don't get one of the leaders making lots of progress early and everyone else to stay still. Spieth is the player who could win this with 9 holes to play.

Cruyff Turn Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 No one will want to hit lofty clubs today, if you 're into rough or a bunker 100 yards plus, you're probably going to bogey the hole in this wind. Doubt anyone will be playing flop shots around the green either. It'll take greatness to shoot sub 70 today. Hopefully see Tiger hit a few Stingers. A 72 for Spieth could probably be enough to win it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
