Queries from mrs, didn't have the answers, help....!
Par is par.
1 under par is birdie
1 over par is bogey
2 under par is eagle
2 over par is double bogey, why doesn't it have it's own name?
3 under par, on this side of the pond, is albatross
3 over is triple bogey, so again, why doesn't it...
Great looking field at Royal Aberdeen this week, almost half the world's top 60, 10 major champs and 25 RC players.
Should be a great contest in it's own right but also a great warm up for the Open (as Phil will attest to!).
True links golf too, I lived in the area for many years, if the wind...
I did a couple of these last year that were good fun so I thought time for another one... :D

Shots on Front 9 / Shots on Back 9 / # putts / # FW hit / # GIR
See spoiler below for details.
Edited to add - this is...

Didn't expect to see Kevin Stadler at the event but great round to take the lead. He's entered for the Scottish next week too, doing some serious Open prep this side of the pond.
Steven Gallacher in good position...
Was sitting last night, read a couple of threads where different ball flights were discussed and I've never fully understood the variations/causes so thought I'd try and find an image that showed/described them.

Fascinating paper...
I've not seem many direct comparisons (which is not surprising as double the price) but I've stumbled on a deal where I can get some SR1 at near SS prices, anyone compared the two?
I've been seriously loving the SS but got a box of Project (a) that I also enjoyed but also preferred into the...
Couple of things worth noting I thought....
Richard green comes back in 28 on day 3.
Leader Pablo Larrazabal drops no shots in 3 rounds.
Kaymer misses the cut in his first "home" event since the US Open.
