    I can't believe it!  I just shot a 62 and currently lead the Open!  Would you believe my round included a double bogey on the 2nd!  If only I had got that one right.  

    Sure my score will be bettered but am pretty chuffed to be in the lead.  Loving the course set up by the way, some really nice flag positions, a real challenge.  Still not sure how I got a 62!  

    Sorry it didn't last that long Andy.... my flat stick was on fire!

    Wow, only just checked your score.  A 58 round there is incredible!  Very very well played sir.  Lets see if Bollux can match that!

    Great score with the 58.  I just played and managed a 71 after starting with 3 birdies.  30 putts after having 2 for the first 3 holes isn't good.  The new pins are cool but man it is tough to putt in some of those spots.  Three double bogies did me in, miss the green and then 3 putt isn't great.  Plus pars on both par 5's isn't what you are looking for.  All in all though lots of fun and glad to see new pin placements.

    We've already had a runaway Open Championship in real life, we don't need a second in the virtual Open.

    Interesting to see that the USGA Virtual Championship was won with a 61-63 (-16), and yet already in the Virtual Open Championship Avatar shot -14 in just 1 round :O.  Although i guess that's more a course thingy (ie: St Andrews is much easier apart from the odd hole or 2)...

    Also interesting to see a very mild wind (8 mph or so) in the first round. It was very odd playing around the Old Course in such conditions but i'm expecting the wind to speed up considerably in the final round :)
