Just heard… Ernie Els has won THE OPEN!
Marvelous!
Shame poor Scott, 4 bogeys to end with and gift it to a SA favorite
Congrats Ernie
Ernie wins the Open. Well done Ernie. Have to say I do feel for Scott. What a miss there with a easy putt there at the end.
Still feel awesome for Ernie winning his 2nd open.
182 @ superBul:
Jees Super one has to feel for the young chap. He had it and lost it. He must feel awful. Still feel awesome for Ernie though.
Ernie here I thought his best has passed years ago he go and win the Open.
Gooooo Ernie – What an awesome w/end of sport, especially if you’re a south African
spooony @ 157
lmao … good one!!
what a performance by the proteas!!! magnificent!!! manificent!!
we have now taken 14 wickets on this “flat pitch” where the HOME SIDE managed TWO!!
game back on!! come-on guys, moer hulle!!
Hopefully the Ama-Blomme can put enough pressure on and bowl accurately enough to enduce the Poms into errors… and not just stand around for the day to prod at the ball here and there
Ball from Dale Steyn misses off-stump by 0.8mm…. eishhhh
#191
just saw the replay again … jeez, how did that miss?
Some of the Pommie Commentators really speaking a very kak version of English, if you could call it that… jeez!
192 @ ashley:
Daai was balhaarbreedte weg van ‘n wicket!
Wicketttttttttttt!
Inside edge… and GONE!
Bopara sien sy Parra!
wicket!!! got him!!
5 Wickets to go….
England 117 / 5 after 44.4 overs in the 2nd innings
WICKETTTT!
Damn good start to the morning. Go Proteas.
its now 15 wickets vs the two taken by england!!
Fark, Bell has scored only 19 off 96 balls… does one call that slow or what!
He must be careful not to fall asleep at the freegin wicket!
That is less than a 20% strike rate!
SA Bowlers MUST make Bell play at every ball… he want’s to leave everything wide of the stumps well alone
Eishhh, AB drops a ball edged…. off the bowling of Tahir
Asbak, is Vernon familie van jou?
204 @ grootblousmile:
Hope that drop does not come back to bite us on the backside.
202 @ grootblousmile:
Test cricet boeta. Trying to save his wicket and get a draw I suppose.
Proteas slacking a bit, have not had a wicket for 18 runs… hehehe
Low, flat pitch, certainly hasn’t broken up too much over the 5 days – Proteas going to have to bowl exceptionally well to bowl England out. But, it just takes 5 balls. All bowlers doing very well, except perhaps Morkel, who has been a tad wayward this morning. Eish, I hope we can do it after all the UK press about us being undercooked, blah, blah, blah.
Go Boys!
Howzit, Leather
Hope we take a wicket before lunch. Pity about that dropped catch. Could have set the rot in with us taking a early wicket.
Come on boys get a wicket.
