Calc finished T60 at St. Andrews in 2005....Lehman T23...Lehman may have better vibes there and has played better lately.
Thx for sharing.... |

I like both of those man...go for it!
I still don't think Tiger is all there...although he has two Top 5's in the Majors this year. And he's tore up St. Andrews in the past, but that WAS the past.... |

James Morrison 3
Fredrik Andersson Hed 3
Luke Donald 3
Graeme McDowell 3
Alajandro Canizares 3
Danny Willett 3
Raphael Jacquelin 3
Stephen Gallacher 3
- Most Consecutive Cuts Made (Current)
Charl Schwartzel - 17 (from 2009 Madrid Masters to 2010 The Barclays Scottish Open)
- Course Records
Martin Erlandsson, 64 (-8) (equal) - South African Open Championship
Tetsuji Hiratsuka, 62 (-10) - Avantha Masters
Louis Oosthuizen, 64 (-8) (Blue) - Trophée Hassan II
Rhys Davies, 64 (-8) (Blue) (equal) - Trophée Hassan II
Paul Waring, 62 (-8) - Open de Andalucia de Golf

Kim Do-hoon 64 (-8) (equal) - Volvo China Open
James Kingston 65 (-5) - Iberdrola Open Cala Millor Mallorca
Christian Cevaer 65 (-5) (equal) Iberdrola Open Cala Millor Mallorca
Robert Karlsson 62 (-9) - BMW PGA Championship
Graeme Storm 64 (-8) - Madrid Masters
Alvaro Quiros 64 (-8) - Madrid Masters
José Manuel Lara 64 (-8) - Madrid Masters
Rhys Davies 62 (-9) - The Celtic Manor Wales Open
