Be the right club. Be the right club today.
Johnny, that's better than most.
How about him? That is better than most. Better than most! Expect anything different?
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the No Laying Up live show presented by Titleist 54 holes in the book at the Open Championship. I am Solly, joined by Mr. Neil Schuster. Hello, Icarito. How are you?
Greetings, Solly. I'm thrilled to be here. Yeah, let's get it going.
Thought about you today when I saw, you know, a big, strong, burly, athletic golfer out there airmailing greens and having rules incidents at Royal Brookdale. I was like, hey, I know that guy. I've seen that guy before.
I didn't see that. I saw an actor in his prime. That's what I saw. A true thespian. Thespian. Thez. I saw Thez, Deej.
Yeah, it was Fez Fest out there, man. It was good day. Good day at the Open. Sully, good to be with you. How are you?
That is the voice of DJ Pajowski. I am excellent. These first couple segments here are going to be presented read-free, ad-free by our friends at Titleist and the new GTS Drivers. Hard for me to mention the GTS Drivers and not get into my sales pitch about how amazing that golf clip is. But it's not even written in the script tonight, so I'm not going to do it. Deej, how we feeling? How we looking? 54 holes and after quite an eventful Friday, maybe not quite as eventful of a Saturday morning and afternoon here.
Yeah, one of those where you're chomping at the bit as soon as you wake up.
Who leads the 2026 Open after 54 holes and what are the leaderboard holes?
I couldn't get enough of it yesterday. Today is going to be just as good. I think we were due for a little bit of a hangover, right? And that's to take nothing away from Sam Burns, who played awesome golf, excited to talk about it. Takes nothing away from the great man, Foxy, who played great golf this morning, injected a little bit of coarse discourse and excitement into the morning coffee this morning. But yeah, it got a little flat. I feel like Scotty couldn't get it going. Tommy kind of sputtered. Johnny Rombo was nowhere to be found. The big names and then Bryson was kind of sputtering on that front nine. So it was a little bit of a hangover day, which I think is to be expected. But I think we're set up for a nice final round.
Neil, what say you?
Yeah, I mean, TC called out. He's probably somewhere over Virginia or something. Who knows? We don't know where he is.
Where is TC? We do not know.
You know, we can't really get a confirmation there. But there's some looting going on this morning. It felt like it. It was like, oh, my God, Foxy races out. And all credit to him, he played awesome. And I was concerned that, you know, the guys were starting to be freed up out there. I said yesterday, it didn't feel like those 62s like those guys were pinning their ears back. Early on today, I was like, man, the ears are pinned. And then the score – and then the course got harder. It held up. I thought both par fives on the back played hard. I'd call out Sam Burns. He birdied both 14 and 17. I thought that was kind of – I'd have to look at the numbers, but it felt like eye test-wise gaining on the field.
Everybody was struggling with that bunker on 14. So the course held up, but that led to a little bit of – the, the, you know, maybe some of this is the telecast as well. Feeling like you're stuck in neutral, like somebody do something, you know what I mean? It was a lot of like, and shout out to Bryce. He made a ton of big par putts, but felt it had a little bit more of a, um, I don't know, a grindy us open field to it today on that back nine.
Which I think is such a funny contrast with a lot of the commentary. And I hate launching immediately into just like commentary and reaction to commentary and reaction to reaction to reaction to reaction. Go on, Deej. But I just, I feel a little crazy at times this week where I'm just like, it's easy in the morning and it's not easy in the afternoon. And I'm like, I think that's like pretty, pretty cut and dry. You know, the 62 was, it was the best round of the day by three or four shots. I guess it was what three shots.
