Oosthuizen keeping calm
South Africa's Louis Oosthuizen had reason to be cautious on Saturday, despite holding a commanding lead in the weather-delayed Open Championship at St Andrews.
Oosthuizen added a second round 67 to his opening 65 for a halfway total of 132, 12 under par, giving him a five-shot lead which was never threatened once winds gusting over 40mph whipped around the Old Course on Friday afternoon.
But with the prospect of further bad weather today, Oosthuizen was well aware of the need for patience and concentration, and said: "You've just got to get your head around it and enjoy it."
He added: "I was very frustrated the last four years on the course because I knew I could win a tournament on the European Tour. I'd won five in South Africa but it just never happened.
"Then I kind of got my head around it; just have fun. You're not enjoying yourself, at least do that. For the last two years I got my head around that pretty good.
"Life isn't just about golf, there's a lot out there, and the win in Spain (his maiden tour title) got my confidence going quite a bit and I've been playing well all year."
