Golf Central

So what’s it I hear about the lack of punters at the event?: It’s reportedly pitiful, with hardly 300 people on course by the close of Day 1, all while an estimated 80,000 people gathered 20 miles up the road in Tullamore for the National Ploughing Championships.
You're making it up…: No, for once, it’s the truth.
So what happened today?: Big fightback from Faldo’s boys to bring it back to five points each.
Who as the star of the show?: Probably Marc Warren.
Didn’t he and Monty receive a drubbing at the hands of the French connection?: Yes they did, but Warren had the excuse of having received half a dozen stitches after bringing a chandelier in his hotel room crashing down on him while practising his swing with a 5-iron.
Should have taken a 7: Very funny.
