Very bad miss by Scott on 13, as he short sided himself after missing the green right into some thick rough.

After Scott’s disappointing finish last year, I feel that with the maiden major title now under his belt he will be much more stronger down the stretch today.

Mickelson’s approach shot to 15 was unlucky not to take an extra hop, but he’s still got a makable birdie putt to tie the lead.

What a close to the tournament this is going to be. 7 of the world’s top 53 ranked golfers are within 3 shots of the lead.

Mickelson Goes Boom! A birdie on the difficult 14th hole puts him one shot behind Scott.

Birdie by Mickelson on 13 puts him just one shot back at even par.

Now you can add Hunter Mahan back onto the list of guys in contention as he taps in for eagle on 9.

Very interesting stat coming though that Westwood hasn’t hit a fairway at all today through 9 holes. Certainly making it hard for himself to make pars.

Par is all that Poulter can manage on 18 and he closes with a 4-under 67 to hold the clubhouse lead.

Poulter finds the front edge of the green on 18, but still plenty of work left if he would like to make birdie.

Two straight bogeys for Westwood as he now drops into a tie for the lead with Henrik Stenson.

Westwood hit his approach shot to 8 fat and it ends up rolling into the cross bunker about 25m short of the green. The momentum is really starting to shift out there.

Poulter remains at +1 for the tournament after being unable to make birdie on the Par 5, 17th.

Good bogey save there by Westwood. His putting is keeping himself in the tournament at the moment.

Adam Scott is on a roll!! Makes his second straight birdie holing a 40 foot putt on 8 to move to even par.

From a plugged lie in the bunker on 7, Westwood fails to get the ball out but on his second attempt he splashes it out giving himself a chance of making bogey.

Stenson gets back the shot he dropped at 8 with a birdie on 9 to move 2 back. Mickelson has quite a lengthy putt on 10 for his par.

Finally!! Adam Scott holes his first putt of note on 7 and gets to +1 for the tournament with his first birdie of the day.

A birdie for Mickelson gets him in a tie for second, 3 shots back. Can Lefty back up his win from last week and win his maiden Open Championship?
