I understand the difference in him coming off the lead and shooting 62 and playing poorly in a final pairing. However, that was his lowest round in 2 years, not to mention his lowest round on a Sunday ever. Consequently people get excited, some people took it a little far saying he would win majors in his 50's however most of the sane people said that IF and only IF he can manage to play around that level, he could win a few times and maybe a major. Obviously if any golfer played at that level they could win, so I don't see the big deal.


Anyways, who's excited for golf today?

Agreed, Tiger tees off in a few minutes, hopefully he hits his irons better today, outside the approach on 1 and a few others, he was off with his approach shots

Toms right behind him on number 10 at 50 past the hour. Wonder if the winds will howl today?

It was a par 70. Has Tiger never shot a 64 before on a par 72 on Sunday before?

The golf channel was asking where that round ranked among other rounds of Tiger's career. Anyone that ranked a round where he started the day 9 strokes back, and still lost the tournament one of Tiger's best rounds ever is just ignorant.

Gonna try to follow the LSU game today until the game is out of hand. So at about 12:15 I should be ready for some golf.

I agree with that, it was fun to watch, but not even crack top 25 in his career to be honest.

I'm not even bothering with the game, if it gets interesting I'll watch. Coverage doesn't start till 12 so you're in luck

And to show that I'm not a bad guy...

As opposed to what Threeputt said last night, Tiger is not out of this tournament yet. Two good rounds could have him on the leaderboard. Or, just one super round like last Sunday.

Honestly the same can be said about any golfer ever. I thought it was interesting Rory said he was just flat yesterday, I wonder if he rebounds today

Eta: Tiger birdied his first hole, hopefully he fares better than yesterday after the first hole

The great thing is going to be watching the Rant if LSU pulls it off. Trent will save his job and the rant will explode.

The Rant: "Worst win of all time!!!!!!!!! ARRRRGGGGHHH"

He is just overpowering the course right now, he hits the ball so damn far

A lot of people shooting low numbers today. Tiger isn't putting for shite missed Makeable birdies on the last 2 holes. He seems very tentative on his putts instead of hitting with pace and knocking them in

Same as last week. They said then there was an issue with the swing changes leaking into his putting style. They fixed it on Sunday, but this week looks like misreads all the way.
