Augusta '09, Day 4: regardless of what was going on around, I thought watching these two go at it toe-to-toe was pretty awesome...

It's days like yesterday which make the 'rivallry' worthwhile...

it was a great watch and so entertaining! they kept bringing the best out of each other (eg. on 15 tiger knocking his about 15/20 ft away for eagle and phil knocking his to 5 ft)! and phils shot on 7 was just unbelievable!

It was an awesome day. I was so close to Tiger on one hole where he hit it left. I am thinking seven maybe. I was just outside the rope as he was walking toward his approach shot. Quite literally, we were side by side walking for about 50 yards with only about 3 feet separating us. I also saw his eagle on 8 and his approach to 1's green from "BFE" went somewhat slightly right over my head. It was an awesome day to say the least.

Simply put: if Tiger Woods makes that eagle putt on 15, either he or Phil go on to win. Tiger was sure that putt was going to drop, and he couldn't believe that it drifted right. That got him out of his rhythm, and even the birdie on 16 wasn't enough to relieve his frustration, avoid trying too hard off the tee, and pushing those drives well right. Tiger's miss broke Phil's concentration and made him leave his eagle putt left, and then missed makeable birdie putts on 16 and 17.

If either or both of those two made it to the club house at 11 or 12-under, I think their presence on top of the scoreboard affects the way Cabrera, Perry, and Campbell finish their rounds. Basically, the pressure of keeping ahead of the top two players in the world in regulation gets to them, and all three of them fall back at the end.

Agreed.

It was as if Cabrera and Perry were merely bit-part actors in a major show - neither of them did anything but grind away par-after-par.

      Eh. He broke ONE of Tiger's records. Youngest to be ranked #1 in AJGA. It didn't help that Tiger's birthday is in late December, or that Tiger didn't play many AJGA events before he was 15. Did he do any of these things? TIGER WOODS' AMATEUR VICTORIES YEAR WIN(S) 1984 10-and- under Junior World Golf Championships Boys    1985 10-and- under Junior World Golf Championships Boys    1988 Boy's 11-12 Junior World Golf Championships   1989 Boy's 13-14 Junior World Golf Championships   1990 Boy's 13-14 Junior World Golf Championships, Insurance Youth Golf Classic   1991 U.S. Junior Amateur, Boys 15–17 Junior World Golf Championships, Orange Bowl International Junior Look at some other AJGA Players of the Year. How many of these names do you recognize? A few, for sure. I assure y'all, I'm not trying to pee in your Cheerios. I just don't get what the point is. Okay. I get that, then. Thanks.

      Day 56: 4/19/2024 Okay, even though I'll be teeing it up in a tournament in less than a week. I couldn't find time to get to the range today.  I spent time on the indoor putting mat.  And I spent time in front of the mirror with my 7 iron. Then again later with the driver.  I also thoroughly cleaned all my clubs.

      Just stumbled onto the article.  Totally random and thought it might be interested to hear other thoughts. maybe I am tired of all the LIV crap and  this just caught my attention.
