Its just a fabulous event - a few oddities I picked up from various sources.
A winner's master's jacket was found in a thrift store (pawn shop) about 40 yrs ago. It was from a genuine winner - they are all tagged etc. The buyer paid $3 for it - sold at auction for a v great deal more. ike $60k if i recall.
Some 800 media staff cover the event. U can go into a free draw, which 3% get to play on the Monday after the event. They say its one of the only ways u would ever get to play.
A guy got arrested for trying to take away a cup of sand from one of the bunkers in a beer cup.

Unfortunately he's holding it together fairly well considering. I've laid him not to make a top 20 finish so hopefully I can sneak out the back door on that one if he puts it in the water somewhere tomorrow.
I've made enough already on Rose and Fleetwood to order an extra topping on my pizza dinner tomorrow night
Great tournament... Rory is reminding me of Tiger in his prime, how many green jackets does a man need!

Bryson cost me. Rory on fire and has set a new record of leading by 6 after 36 holes. Pleased to see Justin still up there.
