    Anyone watching the golf?

    McIlroy leading by two (through 16), Woods three behind him (through 13). Would love to see them two be the final paring on Sunday.

    What happened to Wild Thing!?

    Thought McIlroy was too short at 16s but would like to see him prove me wrong.Ominous that Woods is playing so well so early,on a course he loves!6s might look huge on Sunday.

    Only 8 other rounds of 63 in any major.Its some pressure for the lad to be leading this early.

    Had he got 62 which he very well should have, it'd of been the best score in any round of a major ever - v impressive. He is 3/1 now.

    Unreal.
    Calm weather suited the early tee-offs...not sure if the conditions were more difficult as the day went on.

    usually I would agree about the pressure but this lad is different, he loves it.

    Nothing seems to faze him. I havent backed him unfortunately but i would love to see him win.

    3 days is a long time though, especially at st andrews if the wind gets up.

    Will be interesting to see how McIlroy reacts to Oosthuizen going three shots clear of him

    if he gets around level par today with that wind it would be a fantastic result, no need to attack today or tommorow.
    3 shots is nothing on a Friday.
