They said what?

Rain, wind, and a bit of chat. There's plenty to mull over at Turnberry...

Some snippets from Friday at Turnberry – it’s getting spicy…

I hit my last good shot on the 3rd – yesterday. Seriously, there were no decent golf shots out there. Ian Poulter sounds about as bright as his trousers

If you’re going to play as bad as I did for two days it doesn’t matter what golf course you are playing. It could have been the easiest municipal down the road and I would have missed the cut. It was horrible… Poulter again

I’m off down the M6 now... And again

I am hoping to sneak in on the cut line, to get out nice and early tomorrow morning, in beautiful sunshine, shoot a good score and then the weather to come in. We can always dream, can’t we? Padraig Harrington seems to have rediscovered some confidence…

Very much so, yes Colin Montgomerie when asked if Sandy Lyle’s comments had affected his week

I thought it was rather funny when he said he hopes it doesn’t jeopardise his vice-captaincy position. I thought that was very, very funny Monty on Lyle, again

I can’t tell you Mark Calcavecchia when asked what the wildest bet he had ever made with Phil Mickelson was
