Dirty dozens for Elso and Otto
Ross Fisher's 61 was in a whole different world to Jamie Elson and Hennie Otto at the Irish Open - they both had a 12 on one hole.
Elson's came on the 211-yard sixth, where he put four balls in the ditch short of the green, while at the long seventh South African Otto blasted four shots wildly right and was forced to dip back into his bag each time.
They finished with rounds of 84 and 83 respectively, Elson signing off with a triple bogey seven just to make matters worse.
It was a bad day too for former US Open champion Michael Campbell, who is now going to fly back to his Sydney home for more treatment to the shoulder trouble that has contributed to a shocking slump.
The New Zealander's 77 means he has made only one halfway cut in 20 events since last October - and that after missing 14 in a row not long before.
