Good morning Acid. Keep the sunglasses on man! Those some big dials you have going on there. You feeling a bit hoarse mate, need a g-up with a beer? Ha-ha. Very funny. That appetite suppressor worked a treat mate, so much that I've run out of gear, you know, you know... help us out would ya?
Woah back there big fella. Reign it in cowboy. You can only lead the horse to the water... Alright with the horse jokes. Wheres that beer anyway. You have the best job ever, following the players around, insulting them and getting drunk on the job. So are you going to ask me about the golf?
Nah I guessed it was rubbish, as usual. It was wasn't it? Actually no Dick, I shot a quite incredible, not sure what happened round of 61. Felt like I was floating actually....
He-he. Or he-haw rather. I warned you!
Shoe off Acid, I've got you and your cousin booked in the 3rd stall in the stables... err I mean room 3 at the Lodge! Good luck for tomorrow, and for sleeping! Thanks.... I think.

Acid, over here mate. I got a nice cold brew for you and your caddy. No charge. Thanks Dick, really appreciate it. It was hard work out there today. Why you being so nice?
Truth be told Sid, can I call you that? No. Steve will be fine.
Well Sid, I get paid by the interview. And I'm not looking to be retiring anytime soon, you know? Its like a desert here. It is the desert Dick. Its Africa man.
True. Lets get some actual golf questions in then. How did the course play today Steve? Any highlights? Thanks Dick. It played long today, the floating sensation has left me, and the walk today seemed longer.. Ended up carding a respectable five-under par, I'm happy with that. The highlight? The three hole stretch, hole five through seven, they were my favourite holes right there. Hole five, not a long hole, but a delicate par four with a small landing area - required a nice fade off the tee, driver being too much club, leaving a nice nine iron for a easy birdy. Accuracy off the tee being paramount. This is followed by a dog-leg left par-five, a blind tee. I love this design work. If you are not paying attention and your caddy is drinking beer instead of advising of course layout, it would be easy to drive through the fairway here. Suits my draw too. And yes, my caddy was drinking, but I was still sharp from the horse diet pills. Hole seven rounds out this three-hole leg with a long par four that requires a solid drive with favourable winds to clear the creek to be left with an uphill green, plays a club longer than the distance.... throw in some wind and scoring par here is a fine score.
Wow. Just wow man. Where did that come from? That horse tranquillizer man, its rewired my brain. Thankfully its wearing off.
Don't be a stranger Acid, its a bit quiet around here this week...

Thoughts on your first two rounds? ugh.
Disappointed? Yes, cant be too far down in the dumps. Right now t25, which is respectable, but was hoping to contend top 10 this week with the big hitters gone.
Highlight? Holed out with a 5 wood into the wind on the long downhill par 4 on the back 9 for an eagle. Played it absolutely perfectly.
Hopes for the weekend? Hoping for high winds to derail some scores and hope to stay in the top 25, but I doubt it. Money is money though and I just have to keep moving up the money list and try to move into a good position now, and get above 50% made cuts at some point this year.

Hi Brad, welcome back to the European Tour, a respectable equal 12th finish in the WGC but a very slow start here, you looked liked you had some issues in round one, what happened?
Thanks. I was hoping for a top ten in my first WGC, but had a lot of problems over there, the course just didn't fit my eye.
The course this week I do really like and was expecting to go well here, but I had a couple of incidents outside of my control that cost me at least 3 shots possibly more?
I got an unfortunate bounce of the pin with a flop shot on the 13th which could have easily gone in for eagle, but I ended up with par.
Then on 16 I got a questionable contact, which resulted in a double bogie, where the worst I would have scored would have been par if the contact was as it should have been and maybe birdie if my calculations were correct?
Ooh, that's a couple of tough breaks there. Do you think you can come back from that?
Unfortunately the way the scoring is in these tournaments, one bad round and your basically finished. I'll give it my best and hope that the golfing gods don't conspire against me in my other rounds, I'll hope to get a top 5 by the end of the tournament if I can lift my game in the final three rounds.
Good luck with that
Cheers.

This is last weeks press tent Bradley. This weeks isn't put up yet. Lol. I'll just copy and paste my comments when that one opens. I just presumed as it was so empty, this must be the right place!
