I do like the odd game of golf and there's some great courses near here on the Devonshire coast.
I'm not really a fan of golf on the telly, it's a bit boring but I do enjoy watching the masters as it's such a pretty place |

"When will they show it on bbc1?."
Sky has the exclusive rights I think. So no BBC coverage. Same for the British Open from next year I think which is a real shame. |

"The last two rounds are both live on the BBC, there are highlights of the first two days on tomorrow night, I believe and there's commentary from all four rounds on 5Live."
I love BBC golf coverage. |

Trivia fact : Did you know that Patrons (ie their paying customers) can obtain an on course sandwich and coffee for the princely sum of £1.50 (equivalent dollars ob.)
nb you don't have to eat it off the grass, though that in itself would be a priviledge.

Possibly my favourite of the Majors to watch. Such a beautiful setting. Love to see Rory make a career grand slam, but Justin Rose well worth an each way bet.
I will be pretty much glued to the telly until Sunday night, so please can everyone stop pestering me for sexual favours until then!  |

"Jordan Speith is destroying the course. -8 after 14  "
A friends dad once said to me 'there's always one guy who goes out on day one and hammers it, they never win' and he's right |

Day 2 underway and Speith already extending his lead, I think this chap could be a bit special, does he have the temperament to lead from the front? I guess we are going to find out. |

Even at 21 years of age, his last three results have been 1st and 2 seconds. Had a very good Ryder Cup too so i guess he can handle the big match pressures.
Not sure how good he is at spitting all over, throwing his clubs, crashing cars and cheating on his women yet.

I will have a tenner with you that he doesn't! If he wins from here I would expect him to go on and pick up several majors. If he loses it might just finish him mentally. Big day for the young man today. |

Remember Mcilroy blew it in 2011 from such a position as this and won the US Open straight after, Gary Player once said anybody who hasn't choked never had a chance to win anything.
Anyway this guys the real deal reckon he'll do it. |

I think the young lad will wobble today and it will be alot closer than we think by Sunday!.
He's rode a bit of luck for the first few days, with great skill as well but that luck never lasts forever! |

speith actually a very good "first 3 days" player.... and actually has this habbit on blowing up on sunday..... so at this point, if you can get a bookmaker to back against him tomorrow... that wouldn't be the worst bet in the world |

Yeah I was thinking the same but then I thought, I just think Saturday at the masters might be like Sunday in the other tornies.
He's cool as a cucumber though and very young, so he might just shoot another round in the 60s.
I think ultimately it will depend if the guys at the back can apply the pressure to his round |

"Rory on a roll. But surely no chance of catching Speith....is there??"
The way the course is playing, plus Speith, i can only see him adding to his birdie haul.

see above "
Can't see anything other than another under par round from Spieth, so there is going to need to be some super low scores to make it competitive tomorrow. |

Speith is looking nailed on despite Mickelson and Rose giving it a good go. |

Wife asked last week, "have you put a bet on anybody."
Na, i said.
"Why not, you usually do", she said.
"I just said i have."
"Huh"? she said.
"No, he didn't qualify."
Been sleeping on the sofa since, at least the golf is on.
Q : For a cyber birdie, is the wife : blonde, bald or both. |
