Lets all take a guess at Smylie Kaufman's final score. I'm going with +11.


Good call

He’s 2 under thru 3

He keeps trying to kill it. Irons he has good tempo and rhythm. Driver and three wood he is trying to hit it as far as he can


this has always been tiger's game. and those few times when he actually is on with the driver, he does shite like win majors by 15 strokes.

i'm just wondering what happened to all the talk about the talent pool being so great now and there's no way Tiger would be as dominant in today's tour so i can lol at them

i don't think they were wrong


i'm not one to think that he can't win in today's talent pool, but no one in their right mind thinks he can "dominate"

It’s hard to talk with that Tiger D in their mouths.

Tiger has that killer instinct. He can turn off fear and trust his game to make the hero shots. There is a ton of talent out there now. Unfortunately, most of them are pussies.

Oh I know, he won't change. Before though, it was easier for him to get into that groove. He just doesn't have the flexibility anymore. He just needs to close off some and it might help.

The people who said that Tiger was done forever were just as wrong and premature as people like you saying he's going to be dominant. As of today, you're both wrong.

I don't think he will dominate as he once did but we do know he has the ability to.

The talent pool is better. Even Tiger would tell you that.

The thing is, if Tiger didnt exist in 1997-2005, and he was born later and jsut started playing today, the tour wouldnt have all the young athletic talent they do now. The depth and athleticism/length on Tour now is a result of Tiger IMHO

That’s not just your opinion. It’s everyone with a brain’s opinion. Tiger changed the game

I’m not sure I wholeheartedly agree with that


Training and athleticism has increased in all sports in the last couple of decades.

I’m sure he did inspire some of the young guys but I can’t give him all the credit

Pretty sure no one would argue that.

I give him 99.9% of it. The amount of money and fame he brought to the game made it more than a country club sport

I’m just saying

He has had a huge impact on the sport, but I do think it’s sometimes overstated.
