Playing for second, Monty?
Though Jack and Tiger are understandably getting all the headlines after day two at The Open, I think Colin Montgomerie's showing is perhaps the most surprising story of the championship at the half-way point. But, sadly, this AP article suggests Monty does not have the fire needed to really give Woods a challenge over the weekend: "Montgomerie said, if Woods plays like he can 'second place is what we are doing.'"
C'mon Monty, how about a bit more intensity? How 'bout saying: "Winning my first major by chasing down the world's #1 player would be especially gratifying."

Monty is a bit sharper than you give him credit for. He knows Woods is the man to beat, but he's not going to bring the heat down on himself publically (on home soil) by voicing his intentions to specifically beat the world's best golfer in his persuit of the Title. That's a given! Monty knows what he's saying alright. Let's hope he knows what he's doing on the back nine....
The back nine killed Monty...good call, John.
