Anyone watching the British Open... Shiv Kapur -6 after 7 holes in round one.....whether he'll manage this form is a big question. but he is doing very well. He is the leader now....

Even this non-golfer has been sucked in - I am keeping my fingers crossed...

I was following it and came here to post and I see Omkara has already posted. Is there any link for live streaming?

It is very early and key is that Shiv take advantage of this good streak. Leading at this stage does not mean anything.

Shiv Kapur got a par on 8th

Looks like he parred par 5 9th hole. So -6 of 9

I don't have access to TV at this time. :(

Back 9 is tougher than front 9 based on today's statistics. And unfortunately, Shiv makes a double bogey on the 10th. :(

Double bogey on #10 drops him one off the lead now. I am only catching an intermittent glimpse, but I think he threw a club in anger during that hole.

Shiv shot three-under-par 68 and tied for fourth position at the end of day 1.

He started poorly, with a bogey in day 2...

Hole 2 he hits a par... :D now at T9

Shiv's 5th hole tee-off yesterday was awesome.....
There was some record that he made yesterday with 6 birdies in the first 7 holes.... and things went down from there... +3 in the back-9 and +6 today....

didn't see much today, but I hope +3 should be enough, the projected cut is +5 right now..... :goodluck:

The cut is +7 and Shiv should handily make the cut. +3 overall is a pretty good score after 2 rounds although looks disappointing after his blazing start. Hopefully, he'll have a top-25 finish here...

Looks like a treacherous day for a lot of people in Rd 2...

Shiv ended up at T24 going into Day-3.... :goodluck:

Some players ended up making it through with a +8 for the first two days....

Poor second day for Shiv but well done to have finished with +3 and tied for the 24th position. He is 6 shots off from the leader. Very good performance so far.
