Practically everybody on earth expects you to fold. All of the roars are for someone else, not you. You know what they're thinking: "Who is this guy, and how do you pronounce his name? What is he doing here, and why doesn't he get out of the way?"
So what do you do? You hold up.
Lodewicus Theodorus Oosthuizen is something of an inconvenience in the British Open. No one can quite deliver the correct inflection in his name, or explain how the gap-toothed South African has managed to outscore all of the European Ryder Cup team, as well as Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson. All around him are more popular players -- the entire United Kingdom no doubt wishes he would move aside and let Englishmen Paul Casey and Lee Westwood have the glory. Everyone keeps talking about who the real leader is going into Sunday's final round at St. Andrews.
