    I haven't noticed it, but if you can please take Paul McGinley back and bury him in a swamp somewhere that would be much appreciated.

    He's one of them at it, and Rickie Fowler was another earlier. The main commentator mixed it in a couple of times yesterday too.

    On the latter point, nobody wants him back. He's fucking brutal.

    Also, 'play' instead of 'shot'. That's even more rife.

    Is that some Augusta patrons type bullshit or just plain wankery?

    'Play' is just American bullshit that they seem to use to describe anything in any sport for lack of a vocabulary.

    Patrick Reed pulling on the XL green jacket is the worst outcome imaginable here, someone needs to dock in a 64 tomorrow and get in amongst it.

    The Mrs just looked up at the TV from her tablet and asked why hobos (Tommy Fleetwood) were playing golf now.

    He is fucking phenomenal. So are all the others. Course is a little receptive today but rarely seen a better standard from so many players at one event.

    McIlroy will shoot 62 or something if he wants it here.

    Fuck off Reed. If he went back to 9 or something it would be a classic Sunday. 15 is too many, he won't melt down.

    Why do you hate McIlroy? Just because he's from up here?

    Not really, there's plenty of British golfers I like. It's a combination of the media hype train about him here for no justified reason, and mostly because he's a really odious unlikeable little worm.

    He won four majors by the age of 25, I think that's a fair justification for media hype.

    You're misunderstanding, they treat it like he's an Irish golfer (by 'here' I don't mean your media) and it's just endless fawning. Little cunt even flashed his visa and took our home tournament away from us.

    He gives loads of money to charity too. He seems like a nice lad.

    When has he ever seemed like a nice lad? He's the epitomy of a spoilt brat, every bit of his demeanor and attitude sings it.
    I can understand you all liking the home sportsman and all, I'd do the same myself, but there's no point in fairytales.

    The charity money. He funded the building of some respite centre for kids with cancer up here.

    Like all sports people, his management and PR will have done that. I wouldn't pat any of my own home golfers on the back if they appeared to do similar either, things like kids with cancer don't exist inside a top sportspersons bubble.

    Anyway, it's all irrelevant really anyway. I don't like him and others do like him. If we all had the same opinions then sport wouldn't exist.

    He's like a friendly child in a gigantic body.

    I don't often take the Lewis approach on this subject, but Tiger Woods really needs to get one of those hair transplants.

    Reed is such a prick that a Spieth win would be blessed relief.

    Spieth could post 13 or so here which would make life interesting. Think 15 wins it.

    I'm not the only one. He's just known as an arrogant prick by everyone in golf. It started when he won some tournament and said 'I'm in the top five players in the world', which has never yet been the case.

    He's going to be jacketing up at this rate sadly because Rory is a careless midget.

    It's weird that in golf there are frequently guys who win the majors who I've never heard of. I barely watch it but the same goes for loads of other sports where I've at least usually heard of the winners/challengers of the big tournaments.

    We haven't had any real surprises for a few years. There was a brilliant period in about 2002-04 when Tiger went off it for a bit and we had luminaries like Rich Beem, Ben Curtis, Shaun Micheel and Todd Hamilton scooping up the big prizes.

    In golf you have to beat everyone in the field to win, which is a lot harder to do and more random than tennis where you just have to win 7 head to head shootouts.

    It's less about me considering them to be surprises than there being a bigger disparity between my level of golf knowledge and golf's popularity than other sports of a similar level.

    That said I just read an article about Reed and he sounds like a fanny so I'm all about the Anyone But Reed bandwagon. Not that I'm actually watching it, you understand.

    You can even tell from the muted roars at Reed birdies that everyone there hates him.

    If he gets to 15 I reckon playoff at worst. Even 14 has a chance.

    Course record if he gets one more birdie.

    Cameron Smith tying for 5th at 100/1 has done my tipping credibility, and bank balance the world of good. Spieth also making me a bit but that's hardly a bold call.

    I was at Turnberry when Stewart Cink won the Open beating Tom Watson in a playoff in 2009, and the gallery (sorry, patrons) reaction here is the same, crowd clearly gutted.

    I didn't know all this family stuff about Reed. Having the police escort his mum and dad from the premises while watching him in a tournament 4 years ago. Sounds a proper wrong un.

    Is Bubba Watson on there because he's just really boring/ostensibly a simpleton or is he a dickhead as well?

    I would imagine the harder pick would be a collection of interesting people from 'the world of golf'.
