    Rory wins, great eagle at the last. -3 for the last 3 holes when he had just lost the lead is good going.

    Looks like he has won.

    Two of the greatest fairway shots ever slightly overboard from Ewan Murray

    Jordan Spieth has recovered his mojo

    Some incredible putts/chips on the back 9 gained him victory at the Colonial

    Should be a good tournament this coming week at the Memorial with Spieth, Day and McIlroy competing and all last time out winners

    Thanks :) come at good time cause off on holiday at the weekend for a week.

    Yes I do seem to be going well golf is my main betting outlet outwith football.

    With golf I tend to back people who have gone in the right direction in tournaments the previous two years or have course form for an event that moves around.

    Wood was moving in right direction from last two years of PGA.

    I thought the greens at Wentworth looked terrible, some were very patchy to me, looking something like the effect you get with fusarium.

    Even some short putts "bobbled." With all the money that club must have, can't they afford a greens iron?

    US Open this week although will be a bit overshadowed by the euros.

    Bets on Westwood, furyk, casey, schneteker

    oakmont has a reputation as being one of the toughest courses in the US , will depend how much they "trick" it up this week but could see around level par winning

    Not good for the spectators or TV companies but it will help scoring if you can keep out of the long stuff.

    I asked an ex player for his winning prediction and he reckoned even if it rained, +2 - +5 if it stayed dry. I don't think that'll be far away.

    2nd round started now. Dustin Johnson in a tie for the lead.... how he hasn't made a single bogey yet is beyond me! Definitely the man to beat at the moment.

    Seems a bit random how the second round is underway is Westwood today or tomorrow for his second round

    Half of the field played their second round yesterday and the other half this morning (afternoon UK time). Third round to start tonight and finish tomorrow morning with the final round tomorrow afternoon.

    Lee Westwood now in the lead! Could we have an English major grand slam this year?

    5 bogeys in 6 holes unfortunately for Lee. Not out of it though at Even par.

    Keep forgetting it is only round two, still a long way to go.

    Sky Sports are covering the end of round three from midday.

    Good luck to Shane, Sergio and Lee. I'd be over the moon if one of those three won.

    Dustin winning wouldn't disappoint me either.
