This was our view of the practice range. Not much cop...

. Enthusiastic tournament staff. See you all tomorrow.

When IGWT Met Doug Sanders

16 Jul, 08 | Tags: European Tour | Golf Central | The European Tour | The Open Championship

Look who we bumped into on the practice range today... Doug Sanders, that's who. He was talking to Ian Poulter (who was dressed in exactly the same colour funnily enough), probably giving him some swing tips and thoughts on how to wear purple properly. Don't try and outsmart Doug when it comes to the fashion stakes, Poults, he'll only show you up...

Postcard From Birkdale - Wednesday

16 Jul, 08 | Tags: European Tour | Golf Central | The European Tour | The Open Championship

Dear Mum,

Here we are in Southport, home to the second-longest pier in Britain (Southend rules!) and birthplace of Marc Almond and Sophie Howard, owner of the Sexiest Breasts in Britain 2005, according to loaded magazine (yes, that's the one I used to hide under my bed when I was younger...)

We went to see the golf today. It was windy enough to take three layers of skin off your face. Everyone keeps going on about Tiger and Luke not being there - maybe they were going to bring the moisturiser, or something. The golfers seem to either wear 'this is my pretending to have fun smile face' or 'I'm concentrating really hard, leave me alone' expressions. It's well weird...

Found myself in the Bollinger tent, full of people with Today's Monthly World Of International Golf written on their jumpers. They were talking golf geek stuff with people wearing aqua-clime-cool-venti-proof jackets, who must be very rich and really kind, because they kept buying all the champagne at £58 a pop. I wish I was a golf journalist...

Love you lots...

Jack x
