Vemodig å se vår i særklasse beste golfspiller gjennom tidene i sin beste turnering i livet. Droppen han her tar kostet han seieren viste det seg til slutt. Jeg tillater meg å klippe inn litt nostalgia fra tureringen, legg merke til navnene han nevnes sammen med...
"Henrik Bjornstad blazed to a new course record of ten-under-par 61 to claim a one shot lead over Australian Adam Scott after the third round of the Omega Hong Kong Open.
The young Norwegian amassed a magnificent eight birdies and an eagle at Hong Kong Golf Club’s Composite Course to set up an intriguing battle of the young guns in tomorrow’s final day.
Scott, 21, suffered a three-putt bogey on the 18th green as he shot a 66 while double Masters winner Jose Maria Olazabal of Spain shot a bogey-free 64 to loom as a major threat.
Olazabal, winner of the Novotel Perrier Open de France this year, and England’s Mark Foster, winner of the Challenge Tour Rankings, are two strokes behind the new leader.
Bjornstad, who has a total of 17-under 196, is the man to watch as he flirted with the magical 59 when he toured the front nine in 28, shooting five birdies and an eagle. When the 22 year old dipped to ten under at the 12th, a really hot round looked within striking reach but his putter cooled down soon after.
“Everything just went my way. I hit almost every shot good. After the 12th, I was really thinking about a 59 as all I needed was two more birdies. But I missed a three-foot birdie on the 13th and missed from ten feet at the 14th.
“Those were my only two mistakes. If I had made the putts, it would have been real good. But I can’t complain about a 61,” said Bjornstad, who shot just one more birdie in his last seven holes.

Har en her (og mange andre med samme tema):
Marius Thorp wins Silver Medal
Norwegian teenager Marius Thorp clinched the British Open silver medal as top amateur after firing a one-under-par 71 on Sunday.
The 18-year-old from Oslo holed a 25-footer to birdie the last and tie for 48th at level-par 288, seven strokes ahead of Italy's Edoardo Molinari.
Molinari, the only other amateur who made the halfway cut, closed with a 75.
Thorp capped a memorable day by finishing on the same total as playing partner and five-times Open champion Tom Watson.
"This is fantastic," said the Norwegian, who booked his place at Hoylake by winning last year's European amateur championship.
"I played really well all four days and today I played with one of the greatest legends in the game. It's been a perfect day.
"Now I'm going to take a few weeks off now, having played two months in a row. I'm going to play the European Tour qualifying school later in the year and get some experience."
Watson was impressed by Thorp.
"I think he's a very good player and he's fearless with the putter," the 56-year-old American said. "I remember those days. God I wish I could do that now."
Asked for his opinion on Thorp's future once he turned professional, Watson replied: "It is entirely up to him but he has the game to go far."

Hvor ironisk var det ikke at tre år senere var det Watson og ikke unge, lovende Thorp som stod med en putt for å vinne the Claret Jug? Skulle ønske han ville gjøre comeback, men det handler om motivasjon! Kunne han bare ha funnet en mer positivt approach til golf så hadde han vært på europatouren er min påstand.

Var for øvrig svært moro å se Thorp med Bjørnstad som caddie på CT på Hauger i høst. Hvor mye Thorp roet seg ned og spilte bedre med den gamle mester på bagen. Trist at han da la opp få uker senere.

Ikke mange i verden som klarer og samle sammen en amatør karriære som Thorp. Men hva man gjør som amatør viser jo seg å bety nada...

Det betyr ikke allverden mht utvikling av proff-karriæren.
Men bortsett fra det så var MT en knallgod amatør.
Det betyr en del.
