Briefly....

A wonderful quote I picked up from the BBC Sport website.


"Poulter punches the air and screams like a man who has just rolled over to discover he spent the night with Jessica Alba."
BBC Sport's Mark Orlovac at Royal Birkdale.
(Alex, Hong Kong)
(In the interests of transparency, BBC Sport would like to point out that Mark Orlovac has never spent the night with Jessica Alba - Ed)
