Quote of the day
"It was like a walk in the park today, and not like what we’ve been experiencing in the practice rounds. I’m sure there’s going to be some weather elements thrown at us the next three days so I’m just going to have to knuckle down and handle that." -- Adam Scott, after posting a score of 64 (-6) in the first round of the British Open

Daily blurb
The British Open is underway. The course is uncharacteristically green, the weather is uncharacteristically benign, and the scores are uncharacteristically low. (And after typing it three times, I just realized that the word uncharacteristically is uncharacteristically long.)

Steve Stricker is the carryover favorite in GuruGolf, on roughly 25% of active foursomes. Curiously, Adam Scott is not on any GuruGolf foursomes. Coincidentally, his current GuruGolf price is exactly the same as Tiger Woods’ price ($1510). How cool would it be if Scott and Woods were paired for either of the weekend rounds? And how impossible would it be for Stevie Williams to stay out of the limelight if that pairing should occur?
