I think Tiger is very likely to make the cut since he knows Augusta well and has won four green jackets.  However, I do not see him coming out of a self-imposed hiatus due to a pathetic short game and being sharp enough to win.  I do believe that he has respect for the Masters and will not witdraw if his game goes south.

and some easy money to be made if he simply shows up. I mean why wouldn't he.

That's how you categorize a top-20 finish coming back from an injury and no competitive rounds for 9 weeks? Okay then.

Watched some coverage last evening. El Tigre looked relaxed and ready. He'll make the cut and finish in the top 20.

146 is too low for the cut, remember it's low 50 and ties and those within ten strokes of the leader... not way out of line, if you said par (144), was going to be the cut... I would say you are nuts.

I hope he does well ... but I really do not hold much hope ... I just hope he does not really really suck; otherwise, I will have to listen to that in the media. The best I can hope for, is for him to be in the upper third.

This has the makings of something great. A sports story of the decade.

Tiger doesn't have to play. He made it clear he'd come back only when he was good and ready. The 66 worst ball score suggests he's good and ready. He isn't showing up to miss the cut. If his game was still off he could wait and come back at the British or whenever he chose. Neither is he showing up to be an also-ran.

He's gonna win this thing.

Tiger makes the cut, has a look at contenting but in the end doesn't.

Personally, if he makes the cut and has an average round, I hope he takes it as progress and doesn't go mental on himself for not contending.  To be honest, I just want him to make the cut, that's my only expectation "right now."

I'm pumped.

Although I really, really want him to make it and contend. I voted misses.

In similar news, Tiger should be arriving to Augusta soon for a practice sesh.

Rory has apparently been there all day.

Tiger just arrived. Looking a good bit slimmer than before. Not sure if that's a good thing or bad thing.

Dammit, he arrived just a little bit after we left. I wanted to watch him play.

He missed a few iron shots (on 12 it took him three to hit the green), but the driver was pretty solid.

How's the short game? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

I don't think he'll make the cut, but the Masters has traditionally the poorest filed of all the Majors so he could sneak in. I doubt he can contend over 72 holes. Too much rust and his short game problems would be exaggerated at Augusta National.

His chipping/pitching looks fine on the practice area...listening to his ipod while working.  Will have to see how it translates on Thursday.

Can’t make this up - his first tee shot was so far left it was near the ninth fairway. Hits approach over trees to 4 feet. Makes birdie.

he snap hooked his first official drive as a professional at the Masters'97 - think he bogeyed the hole though.....he hooks a lot on #1

I've got a pile of dead rotting crow out back that I'll eat if he makes the cut.

Post a picture for proof ... love to see a grown man cry. :-P

After the 1st hole...

Jason Sobel ‏@JasonSobelESPN  7 seconds ago

Tiger then chipped about six balls from three different locations around the first green. And you know what? He looked really, really good.

The only problem is "it's practice." The issue with Tiger has been he's chipped it great on the practice range and at home, and played great, but on the golf course, he can't do it. A lot of that is just plain mental. He needs to fix his mental game, and we'll find out Thursday if it's fixed or not.

      How Much Water do You Need to Drink?

      By TN94z ·

      I don’t measure my intake either. I generally have a black coffee, a bottle of soda, some sweet tea at home, and anything in between is water. An ice cold bottle of water is one of my favorite things. It feels like an immediate refresher for my body. I’ll admit that I need to drink a little more though.

      This Guy Is Blatantly Sandbagging!

      By imsys0042 ·

      For such a nice membership, there have been some bad incidents in the past few years.  We had someone voted out a couple of years ago over something he did and he harassed the board members for three months until he moved out of the area.   Generally they’ve tried to do things like tournament handicaps and identify certain people who they know should be lower and adjust it somehow.  I can understand not wanting to go thru something like the guy who was voted out again i emailed the pro who forwarded it to the handicap committee.  They are going to see what can be done.  I walked someone thru what happened and they are going to nudge him to post the score from the match and see what he does.  Since he didn’t put anything in the electronic scoring past 13, based on how he played 14 and 15 plus having to take bogey on 16-18 for after he left, he should post 83.  We’ll see if it’s even higher,   Since he was really even thru 13, then doubled 14 and parred 15 my guess is he really shot 75 being generous and giving him 2 pars and a bogey on the three holes he didn’t play.    i shot 88, getting 16 shots for my course handicap which is net even and I lost on 13.  We do brackets where handicaps should be within 4-5 of each other.  Most matches only have 1-2 shots as a difference between players  neither of us posted the score yet.  There was something in the match play rules about whether or not to post your score.  I couldn’t remember if we were supposed to or not.  I don’t think he was going to post that, because even with his inflated score it would be the lowest score in his recent 20. Lucky I didn’t because they want to see what he does post and they don’t want me posting so he can try to calibrate his score.

      Got your hopes up a bit too high only to have them dashed today? A feel "expired"?

      This is why you should never have any expectations when you play golf even when you think things are starting to click together. In end golf will just curb stump you.
