How do you come about an observation like "F*** he's good"? What about Sergio? What about the rest of the guys that are -9, -8? Are they terrible?

Yes.

Are they terrible?

I dunno...maybe because he's good?

Maybe if you stop being so butt-hurt by things you don't like, you could stop seeing everything in a negative light?

Because Sergio doesn't have 3 wins already this year.

My prediction for today is that Tiger goes nuts and breaks the course record and has a comfortable 6+ shot lead over 2nd place.  He's still hungry for what could have been at the Masters. Making up for it at a place he hasn't been stellar at.

Exactly...nobody said the other guys were terrible- they are very good also, but none of them has Tiger's track record.

It does seem like the kind of round where we've been accustomed to seeing a listless 18 holes from Tiger over the past few years.

He's certainly not shooting 62, as one poster suggested after I provided my two cents. To further elaborate, the big difference between "vintage" Tiger and the one we've seen these last few years is that he hasn't been able to make those big moves into the lead on Saturday that made those "14 of 14 majors won after leading 54 holes" statistics so notable. Really, we saw signs of this going as far back as 2007, when he had opportunities to put the Masters and US Open away on Saturday, didn't do it, and ultimately finished second both times. At this point of his career, Tiger is less of a "win the tournament on Saturday" player, and more of a "assume one pedestrian round on the weekend, so he has to be clear of the field on Friday" player. Let's see if he changes that perception today.

Garcia isn't going to handle being paired with Tiger well.  He's collapsed under even less pressure in the past and I expect he'll just about be in tears when Tiger is done with him.

Just coming off rain delay and I have to leave -- will they carry coverage on NBC through the finish, or will they move to GolfChannel at 7 pm?  Anyone know for sure?  I am guessing they will go to GC

Thanks -- I can only DVR one station and want to get as much as possible

For those that didn't see today, Sergio put his second shot on the par 5 2nd into the trees and ended up making bogey to Tiger's birdie. He looked over after the shot and seemed upset about a sound that came from somewhere else on the course. During the delay he seemed to accuse Tiger of a little bit of gamesmanship.

Garcia's complaints - the reason he will not win a major.

He's got to man up.
