According to this: http://www.tigerwoodsfoundation.org/news/article/2011120126069636/twf/ there is no wind so far. Scores are going to be low if it doesn't change.

-4 thru 5. He's got some mojo going so far.

Apparently, the wind died down all of a sudden.  Oxnard airport to the east had issues early in the morning but is running smoothly now.

The wind is picking up a little bit now.

And Tiger just hit out of the rough, advanced the ball perhaps 10 yard, this makes me feel better about my game.

Any one know why Tiger changed his shoes after 9? Am I imagining a slight limp? Hope not.

[Zwick]

In the post-round interview he said he had a broken shoelace.

Thanks, still not convinced he was moving that well. A few grimaces on the back nine, hopefully because of the golf he was playing rather than any flair up of the injuries.

That flop shot was incredible. So close for his third eagle. No doubt Tiger is looking better than he has for a long time. Shaping shots both ways, hitting the long clubs down the middle. Still some iffy shots off the tee here and there, but his current form is reflected by his current score. He's strutting again.

Matt Kuchar had a nice day ...  5 under

Tiger is playing much better but still too many silly mistakes. He could be leading by 5 or 6 strokes....

He could be... but it's nice to see him leading...  I think with each tournament he is getting better and better and this maybe the one he finally wins... I sure hope so because if nothing else it'll help stop this "when will Tiger win again?" crap.

He needs some practice to do it as well as Rocco Mediate (assuming Rocco still does it).

Speaking of practice, I was thinking about the current "No Practice" thread and pondered the current down cycle in Tiger's career. Golf isn't really that hard considering with very little practice hackers like me can maintain our current level of excellence (as low as that is), so why wouldn't a healthy Tiger win this and many more events? To suggest he couldn't (versus "probably won't" because there are so many other good players in the field) is ridiculous. Not suggesting for one second you ever did suggest that, but I think I may have at one point and flawed logic. Just throwin' that out there.

[Kieran123]

Considering there are only 18 players in the field. His chances of winning are a lot higher than any other tourney.
