He's gonna have to "golf his ball" to have a chance at six straight...

UPDATE: Tiger got it down to one-down, but now it's back to three down with eleven to play. Not looking good...

I am glad to see that Mike Weir is 3 up on Adam Scott after 31 holes, that would be a big win for Mike...

Monty said it would be nice to have one of the Europeans beat Tiger this week to give them more confidence going into next week (like they need it). However, it looks like Monty hired a henchman by the name of Shaun Micheel to do the dirty work for him.

Tiger's probably excited and motivated to play this week, but something tells me he will be a little "extra" motivated to play next week in the Ryder Cup.

I wanted to see Luke Donald/Tiger Woods in the second round too. Get it together Eldrick.


Edit #1: I just checked out the leaderboard for the first time. Is any favorite winning his match? Other than Cambo and Donald, I would say the underdog has won or is winning all matches. It's crazy.

Paul Casey shattered Retief Goosen, and Robert Karlsson is whippin ol' Jim's rear end with less than nine to play.

The United States might not score a point at the K Club next week now that I think about it.


Edit #2: Micheel defeated Woods 4 & 3.

It probably doesn't mean a whole lot that Tiger lost, but it certainly isn't the greatest news possible. I'm sure the media will get a kick out of it though and use it to their full advantage.

I see this as a "Take one for the Team" strategy. See Tiger loses to Micheel to boost Micheels confidence. Furyuk loses to give the Euros a false sense of "see the Americans will choke" feeling. It's a great ploy....I hope.....

Looks like ol' Lehman shoulda picked Micheel for a captain's pick. Really, it might not have been that bad of a pick. Of course, hindsight is 20\20.

    • Day 85 - Played 9. Driver was solid, approach shots were pushed, chipping/pitching was better, putting was rough. 
    • Day 514, March 28, 2024 Quick ten minutes while waiting for the wife to come home for our trip.
    • Day 262: did a stack session. Worked on rehearsal swings during rest breaks. 
    • It's been a little more than a year since I can last remember hitting golf balls and today I just got my second cortisone injection in 11 months. I thought maybe shortly after the first injection I was going to be able to start playing again with therapy but the pain while doing my backswing past halfway just didn't subside like just lifting my hands up in the air did. So today the Orthopedic surgeon put more in the backside of the shoulder than before to address the tendon more. I'm going to try therapy for another 3 months and if I  can't swing the club without pain then I think surgery is going to be my next option.
    • I was just down visiting family in southern California and we played a couple rounds of golf. I hit my ball into the deep rough near some tree's and my cousin's husband offered me his Sim 2 Rescue Hybrid to try out. And I felt the same way, wow! I loved it, it also had a Pure DTX grip on it which I loved. As soon as I got back home, I ended up buying two used Calloway Rogue X hybrids, 3 and 5. So far I've only tested them out at the range, but I love them. They're much more forgiving than irons for me.
