Taken him rather longer to bounce back, though, hasn't it? Plus, there's a lot of golf left to be played. Great to see for now though.

Astoundingly alliterative acclamation, Rossa!

And I take it you mean the gopher?

I am not as familiar with the film as some, so if the badger thing is from the film please excuse my ignorance, but my avatar is the gopher from Caddyshack.

Class! clap

The "Bjorn Again" and "Re-Bjorn" jokes were getting a bit tired but that one is excellent

I think that his odds on having the most ridiculous accent make him joint favourite with Peter Schmeichel and John Barnes.

Isn't it so weird when a non-Brit develops a regional accent?

A year ago I posted on 606 that I had a strange feeling that Thomas would win the Open and asked the question 'am I daft'.

A year to early obviously.

if Clarke could win at 42, so can Bjorn win at 40 or 41. Don't rule him out. I'm sure we will see more victories from Bjorn in the future.

sharrison, did you ever wonder if Schmeichel and Bjorn came from the same country? I wonder what your Danish accent would sound like.
