Default Tom Watson

Leads The Open after 36 holes. We may be about to witness one of, perhaps the greatest, accomplishments ever in sports.

I have been glued to the couch watching what I hope is history in sports being made. Unbelievable what this man is doing at 59 years of age. Can't wait till the final round.

Do not follow where the path may lead.
Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

I love it! I love that he's winning at 59 and I love it that it makes him emotional that he can still do it! You go, Tom!!

Now leads after 54!!! I remember in the 70's, the owner of the NBA KC Kings complained that the Kings were the 4th franchise in KC, behind the Royals, Chiefs, and Tommy Watson.

Hold on, Tommy!!!

Tough luck, Tommy. The legs, the concentration, after 72 tough holes, our age catches up and they begin to waver. But the way you play, you'll be back next week at Berkshire for the Seniors and one more shot at St. Andrews next year. Well played for a Daisy.

And congrats, Stewart. Bring the Claret Jug with you next time you visit your folks here in TV.
