That's because Mark Calcavecchia is fat and out of shape. I'm sure Watson probably works out. How else is he still competing at that age.

No disrespect towards Tiger, but I have trouble feeling sorry for him at all for missing the cut.

cabrera cant really be a weird champion at the masters seeing as he was already a major winner before it can he?

Yeah, I was debating this before I added his name....but then I thought

"what else has Cabrera won except 2 Majors?" That makes him even goofier.

i bet anyone 50 bucks tiger doesn't play in a tourney two weeks before the PGA, and if he does, he's gonna try not to win.

is that because he'll be playing the week before the major instead seeing as its the bridgestone :)

I really like this course. Missing the fairway can leave you with a terrible lie. Makes the tournament a lot more unpredictable. Many players on the PGA Tour take the risk of finding the rough since it's cut fairly short and easy to play off. Here however, you do not want to go far from the fairway, or you'll be in deep grass.

Makes the accurate players blossom. Just finding the ball can he a huge problem, we often see spectators looking around for the ball. Too bad for the players of course, but exciting to watch for sure.

When was the last time Tiger missed a cut?

"

It is the first time Woods has missed a cut since the 2006 U.S. Open at Winged Foot, where he was playing for the first time since the death of his father, Earl, in May of that year. " Source: http://sports.espn.go.com/golf/briti...ory?id=4337152

    • Played Musgrove Mill GC today. 72.3/155. First round in 4 weeks and shot 44-39. 2 triple bogies on the front and horseshoed 4 putts today. Overall, 10 fairways, 8 GIR and 31 putts.  Set a goal today to par the 3 toughest holes (4, 18 and 9) and birdie 10 or 12 (which I have never birdied). Parred 4, 9 and birdied 10. Crushed my drive on 18 and had 139 left, but in casual water. Dropped back a little ways and took an extra club. Hit my 8-iron well but it came up short. Bunker shot from wet sand left me an 18’ for my goal. Read the break well but perhaps an inch too much break, and a touch heavy on the speed. Ball circled the hole 270* and tapped in for a bogey. Handicap dropped 0.1.
    • Day 143: 5/18/24 Practiced prior to round today. All aspects of the game.
    • I’m sad that no player got arrested this morning. It should be a feature now for every tournament.
    • Played around with this a bit. Not getting the spin up. This was even on a green that is pretty severely sloped towards me, clean lie, and a soft green. Maybe higher spin is just not my thing. 
    • Why are they showing almost every shot by Theegala? Burmester also gets a lot of TV time. Then suddenly someone at +2 or -1 missing a putt. At least throw in a shot now and then from the others in the top 20.
