(Note to Publisher, please don’t release this until after the British Open)

At age 53, Greg Norman has again won the British Open. An amazing final round of 70 (fix this later) gave Norman a comfortable five-shot win in what must go down as one of the great sporting achievements of all time . By winning, Norman’s reputation as a choker is gone and the icky stench that emanates from his recent divorce/remarriage is somewhat lessened.

On a different note, what kind of shoddy camera work are we witnessing with this broadcast? Norman just hit a 108-yard wedge on 10, and the cameras didn't follow it at all. With Harrington's wedge we only saw the strike and the landing. It's been a problem the whole four days and I've never seen anything like it.

Judge Smails - the British camera work was just as bad at the last Open. Compensation for me is that as it's BBC there are no adverts at all, so at least I get to see every strike and landing if not everything inbetween.

UPDATE: Norman double-eagles 18, Harrington doubles 18, four-hole playoff to begin momentarily.

MINOR UPDATE: Wolfrum admits qualude abuse.

Crap.

Crap, crap, crap.

Yes, he shot a 77 on the last day, but is it fair to say he choked this time? I mean, the guy is not exactly in his prime anymore.

(Crap.)
