John Daly is -7 through 11. The dude is putting the ball anywhere he wants. It's absolutely amazing. Tiger is -1 through 3, and just missed a 12 footer for birdie by coming up an inch short. Leaderboard

Rory McIlroy on -5 after 11, I see him as golf's next big thing.

Play has been suspended once already, and they might oo it again, do to high winds. Once again, the early starters got in before it got crazy, but these guys can't even putt because the wind is so crazy.

Went to St Andrews about 18 months ago, stunning spot but seriously exposed to the elements.

How do Americans typically view The (British) Open, seeing as the other 3 majors are US based?
