Shaun Norris revealed what he and his illustrious 14-time Major-winning playing partner discussed during the third round of The Open.

The duo started the day level and while Tiger Woods played his way into the mix, it was a steady 69 for Norris.

Woods has a very keen interest in Japan, possibly rugby and young South Africans’ school days, according to Norris.

‘Well, he’s good friends with Ernie [Els], so we typically talk about rugby and things like that,’ said Norris.

‘What kinds of things we did in our school days and that sort of thing. Basically, asking where most of the golf I play, which is in Japan.’
