    Ten years ago Rory McIlroy's dad and three mates placed a £400 bet at 500/1 that Rory would win the Open by his 25th birthday, today could be collection time...

    And if Rory somehow ****'s it up, I'd imagine he has enough dosh to give them the cash, red-faced, anyway.

    The BBC must be really disappointed with Tiger Woods playing ****e.
    This means that they have to give extra coverage to British white players.

    You talk bollocks mate
    I just dont understand why the BBC think that the British public would rather support Woods than British players in the open

    The attention paid to Woods may be overdone, but why do you bring skin colour into it?

    Great to see the IRISHman at the top of the leader board.

    Go on Rory, keep it together.

    He would never of got so much coverage over the years if he was white.
    That is the point that I am making.

    He's probably the greatest ever golfer, black or white. That's why he got so much coverage over the years - he was winning everything.

    I disagree with that.
    There are plenty of players from the past who where better but never had clubs to hit the ball 350 yards.

    Pity he didn't stop for 3 seconds to sign an autograph for the young fan. Gone down in my estimation.. I hate when sports people don't give a little time for the people who support and make him
