I take issue with you Sir !
The parallels you draw between a journeyman winner of nothing else of note but those two tourneys, probably the lowest level winner/waste of a major in recent times, with a multimajor winner on the all time list, winnner of the money list, and umpteen titles on the major tours, are most unfair to Ireland's second greatest golfer ever. The Hamster is not even in Harrington's (former) league.
I demand a retraction and apology.

It should be a roller coaster Tom

2 weeks of links should be interesting after the promise of the first 2 rounds in Down.

Tied 34th - that'll do nicely.

ronjo

Nice start this afternoon birdieing the first two holes.

Ruu

Currently at -2 for the day -4 overall.

paulie21

Birdied 9 as well. 5 under now. Think Sky would show some of him

ionadnapokot

Currently T18th after 10. Wud be great to see him give it a good rattle at the wkend.

Ruu

Still at -4 for the day with 3 to play, in it for the weekend anyway. Current leader at -11 though so lots of work to be done.

gladrags

Birdied 16 to go to -5.

Ruu

Gave it back on 17.

paulie21

Another 68. Up and down round but at least he's there for the weekend

Getting some good practice for next week in St Andrews too.

Ruu

Remains on -4 going into the final round.

2 over par 72 to finish T60

Interesting stat from this week was that Padraig birdied each of the par fives in all four rounds. A while back there was a lot of discussion about his relatively poor scoring on par 5s.

Anyway, roll on next week. Hope springs eternal!

Ruu

At least it wasn't a missed cut. Good prep for the Open.

Followed by 3 pars, so out in 35. That's OK.

Ruu

Up and down round today, still at -1 thru 12.

paulie21

Even Par 72

Fairways: 56%
GIR: 39%
Putts: 24

Looks like his putting kept him going

MarcusP12

Didn't see very much of the coverage at all but would it be fair to say that conditions were a bit tougher for the afternoon players and generally speaking all the decent scoring was done during the earlier rounds?if thats the case then I'd be interested to see where level par would be amongst the rounds that started in the 2nd half of the day...I suspect a lot better than it is now....does anyone know what the forecast is for tomorrow....paddy out early so fingers crossed the wind blows but that the better weather is during the morning...a good round in tough conditions could catapult him into a decent position...but to be honest,I'd take making the cut right now....!

Mr.Goodman

Padráig is teeing off at 10:52.We should get to see loads of him this morning since not many are out yet.

pistol_75

Ken Brown has said he was in parts of the course yesterday not visited by many but was saved by having 24 putts. Hopefully a better day ball striking today. Making the cut would be a good result for him.

Just drained a great putt for birdie on 6.

That was the 7th Vienne, par to the turn.

not following on TV, is the weather bad for the day, bad enough that the cut might be 0 or +1?
