The quiet before the storm …
This very moment is maybe my favourite part of every Open week.
The course is empty, the light is fading, and everything's very still.
All you can hear is the soft flutter of the flags, the gentle metallic creak of the stands, and the keow-ing of gulls.
Until tomorrow… pic.twitter.com/KPQIgMBWYo
