I agree, depends on Tiger.


Camilo and ZJ with good rounds today. If Tiger shoots 1 or 2 under it should be a fun weekend.

On the other hand if he shoots 4 or 5 under today, it could be a solo run.

Did anyone see the Tiger interview w/ David Ferhty after the tourny was over. He kept calling Tiger a loser. The first time it was kind of funny but after about the 4th time even though Tiger was smiling I'm sure he was ready to kick him in the nutz !

I think Tiger and Feherty are buds and he took it just fine. And he'll use that as a reason to push even harder this week.

Tiger has never seemed so irrelevant. All he has to do is shoot 69 to win and he does not even break par! A 3-putt par on 14!

It is nice for Glover, Watson and O'Hair, but Tiger did not deliver the expected drama on Sunday. What a let down!

I'm not sure I'd say "irrelevant." He was "in it" all day and has finished top 10 or so in every event he's played this year.

But I agree with the sentiment. He's not consistent. His driver is terrible, but even with that he could still score if his irons were fine. Tiger has always said the secret to playing good golf is to be pin high, and he was anything but all day on Sunday. I think he tried to force that one on 14 a little too much.

It's nice to see someone other than Tiger winning, I think. I've been finding myself rooting against him lately, to be honest.

Two Tiger comments:

1) He's clearly a bit frustrated at the moment but he's keeping his composure and doesn't get defensive or whine when it's all over.
Who does that remind you of, NOT?


Faherty's ribbing was a tribute of course and Tiger knew it. Nice touch.


2) That bunker shot on the par 3 17th (35 footer, with backspin, into a downslope towards the water) was pure genius. One of the best sand saves I've ever seen - not a hint of luck to it, just pure skill, confidence and guts.

Tiger's still got the magic.

    • Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.
    • Is that the current generation Gamer? Another old standby for a firm and inexpensive ball is Pinnacle.  There are two models, the Rush and the Soft, but I don’t know what compression they are.
    • Good advice, but according to DSG website it is a 45 compression ball. My current ball is the Top-flite Gamer at 70. 45 is too low for me to go.
    • The 3 piece Maxfli Trifli is 2 dozen for $35.  The Trifli does not feel as soft as the Maxfli Softfli, which is why I like it. Other options would be one of the Srixons, which have a buy 2 get 1 free offer.
    • I have been carrying a 7 wood more often this year.  It’s especially handy if you have a downhill lie to an uphill green.  It’s also handy if the rough on the course is deep.
