Tiger, Jack Tied For The Open (For The Ages) Lead At St Andrews
/Seve and Nick Faldo are just a stroke back! Louis Oosthuizen is just two back with a tight grip on low nightmare. This board is stacked! Golf Channel has the broadcast from 6-9 am ET Sunday, with TheOpen.com and YouTube also options.
The game story writer is already prepping us to not expect a Tiger-Jack runaway.
While much attention will focus on Sunday’s final pairing, a host of star names remain firmly in contention just behind Woods and Nicklaus.
The penultimate group will feature Seve Ballesteros and Sir Nick Faldo, the Champions at St Andrews in 1984 and 1990 respectively. Ballesteros and Faldo are only a shot off the pace after round three, along with five-time Champion Golfer Tom Watson, who is out in the third-last group with Louis Oosthuizen.
The Champion Golfer of the Year at the Old Course in 2010, Oosthuizen is two behind the leaders with 18 holes to play. John Daly and Jordan Spieth will also start the final round on 10 under and play together in another intriguing match-up.
Rory McIlroy and Ernie Els are the other feature pairing, although both sit nine shots adrift of Woods and Nicklaus.
