Tee times for Thursday

http://www.theopen.com/TeeTimes#!/R1

Not sure when the live TV starts tho. I believe SKY will be sending earlier than others.

I see at 8.33 am T Watson, Els & Snedecker will play together........the granddaddies will have to let some groups through according to St. Andrews course inspectors (NO SLOW PLAY).....LOL

If there's a tie, what about having a stroke round or two on St. A. to decide the winner, and maybe include handicaps for tier differences?

Free to view - BBC, Golf Channel & Sky Sports etc: golf channel live stream

TV Listings:

Great idea the tie thing at St. Andrews Dub ; )) although, it might be a little problematic if players do not agree a match game, after all it is not specified in the competitions "rules" and it is too late to "change" those rules.....lol

However, if there is a tie, I will ask the players to play the sleeves that way, if they do not like the idea, I will give the prize to the first one that posted its pick.

About the tv links Dub, there are not HD right?

I have installed AceStream in my pc and there are several links to watch it for free in HD quality. Here is a Russian link (possible to translate) and find many sport channels

There are also other AcStream channel list in the net to find those TV cannels sending The Open live.

It looks like the Scottish summer weather is going to have a big say in the outcome of the Championship. Not as windy as it could be but windy enough to cause problems.

Outlook for Thursday to Saturday

Mainly dry with some sunshine on Thursday. Wet, windy weather extending to all parts on Thursday night. Staying unsettled on Friday and Saturday with further rain. Also windy at times.
Thursday

Friday

Saturday

Sunday looking much the same as Friday with a slight drop in the wind speed.
