Spieth seems to have steadied, 15 and 16 are both birdie opportunities so he's not out of it yet. Would help if Willett can turn that good drive on 18 into a birdie...
 
I'm going to Bordeaux for a few days for Wales v Slovakia and Austria v Hungary.

Looks like Willett will post -5 at worst. Spieth just about has time to force a playoff but unlikely. Johnson probably the best chance of stopping Willett.

Might see you there Wats. Bring your corkscrew, apparently the Vin is decent.
 
Four Englishmen in the top ten and Rose just outside.

Spieth with another birdie chance at 16. Not over.

If I could hand a major in golf to one player it would be Lee Westwood. What a player he has been during his career. Shame he looks like being 2nd/3rd yet again.
 
I am 2 hours plus of GMT so hitting the sack. I hope Willett wins it. If not, Westwood.
 
A rugby grand-slam, a Masters champion, 2 (two) world heavyweight champions, nearly won the cricket (!) - surely this will be England's time to win the Euros.

Again, really happy for an unknown to win it.
I just fed up for Spieth to tell us that the Lord helped him win.
I've often wondered if the Lord also let him lose other weeks ................ h'mmmmm.

Anyway, good luck to Willet.

Speaking of Faldo ................. I admit he was a good golfer but didn't like as a person.
The story goes ................ His caddie was so poor his shoes had holes in them.
The caddie mentioned this to Faldo one time so Faldo took out his wallet ( the caddie thought he was going to pay for a new pair of shoes ) ....... not likely.
Good old Nick took the thick rubber band holding all his pound notes together and gave it to the caddie, to hold the shoe together.
The guy is tighter than a fish's asshole.
