    US Open golf 2011

    http://www.majorschampionships.com/u...ring/index.cfm

    Rory McIlroy is leading by 10 shots at the moment! A lot of players haven't started their second round yet.
    Hopefully this won't end in tears again.

    McIlroy leads YE Yang by 6 shots after round 2. Rory doubled bogeyed the 18th.

    3rd place is 9 shots behind McIlroy on 2 under.

    Britain will be delighted with McIlroy's form. He has afterall stated he will represent Britain when golf is played in the Olympics.

    They're likely to be the two highest ranked Irish players but not necessarily the highest-ranked in Britain. Comonwealth Games should be sorted though:

    Not like this would be a big deal, sure he is entitled to play for whoever he wants too

    Why do you bring this up? What relevance is that to the 2011 US Open?

    I hope he finishes the job, I think he'll shoot low again today -
    Course playing very un-us open like.

    Barring some incredible 7 shot collapse; as it stands he should be fine. All will be known come the back-9 tomorrow.
    DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?

    Ya saw that before, funny considering he is from the green side of the fence up north.

    Back to more important matters, he is home and dry now with 2 to play. Well deserved, particularly after the Masters, breaking records all over the place this weekend.

    Think McMahon is a director of that International Sports Management company that Rory uses.

    Anyway, great win for Rory and good to see NI produce back to back open champions!

    I'm sure Britain are happy with this. One of McIlroy's goals after all it to represent Britain in the 2016 Olympics.

    I bring it up because everyone going on that's it's a great result for Ireland. I'm just putting things into perspective. Hat's off to him anyways, it was a fantastic result and a great win for him.

    No-one was going on about it being a great result for Ireland on Saturday afternoon, when you originally brought it up ( for no reason ).

    Golf is organised in this country as a single Union - so it IS a great result for Ireland. Same as if the Irish rugby team won something. I coudnt care less if he considers himself was Irish, British or Greek.

    What do you mean by "from the Green side of the fence"?

    Anyway - superb performance from Rory.

    Him and GMac have made many people in Northern Ireland very, very, proud.

    Absolutely magnificant stuff - unlike my hangover today.
    The Englishmen came over in the year 2005
    But little did they know that we'd planned a wee surprise
    Sir David scored the winner, and Windsor Park went wild
    And this is what we sang...

    And people in Ireland, and people in Britain. And people in the US etc etc

    Luckily for them its an individual sport and they don’t have to ‘be’ any national

    Seems like a nice guy, so good luck to him
