what do you guys think about the online commentary following tiger, rich, and paddy? personally, i find them pretty damn funny.

Go Tiger!

Did you see the 362 yard drive on the par 5 seventh btw? Not Tiger, but another player, can't remember his name right now, but he had a 9-iron approach shot on the par 5, and still ended up with a bogey

Don't look now, but Ross Fisher is playing himself into contention at a major again. 3-under.

In fact, at the time of this post, there are 20 players under par. Tiger and Lucas Glover are the only two Americans in that group. Three Irishmen, three Britons, three Afrikaners, two Aussies, two Danes, a Fijian, a Spaniard, a Swede, a German, a Japanese, and a Korean make up the international contingent at the top of the leaderboard.

paddy is definitely getting some lucky kicks out of the rough on his approaches.

Trivia question I need some help with...how many players have won the PGA Championship in their first attempt? I know John Daly did, anyone else?

Ross Fisher is turning into a very, very good golfer!

Yes he is! But he is making some putts too.

The boos are going through the galleries at Hazeltine, which only means that Mr. Weekley just went eagle-birdie on 7 and 8.

Quiros had a 47-yard pitch approach to the pin on the 432-yard ninth.

and once again couldnt capitalize

TNT is using an ancient photo of Tiger for their graphics. He's still using a Titleist driver in that picture.

That pin position was a little too tight for anything but a full wedge. Impressive, but not very smart play by Quiros.

I've seen a lot of big hitters on the tour, JB Holmes, Sergio Garcia, but can anyone measure against Quiros? His short game is not good, but what the heck, he's fun to watch. If he keeps his accuracy and improve his approach shots, he could be hitting the pins.

He is pretty much the European, Right-Handed version of Bubba Watson.

He seems like a nice player, but I'm not sold on him around the greens and putting (as far as the Tour goes, obviously he's a lot better than me or your average player as a putter and stuff, I'm saying compared to the top wedge players and putters on Tour.) If he gets better from 100 yards and in, this guy could win some majors for sure. He seems like one hell of a ballstriker. It's been a g ood tournament so far. Somewhat figured this would happen - I don't think it will be very interesting over the weekend, I think Tiger's going to win by at least a few shots.

Fisher to -4 after driving the 14th green and -5 for the day, he's quickly turning into one of my favourite players!

[mcfc_nick]

btw, is it just a coincidence that poulter has a very good day when he is wearing normal golfing clothes?

[mcfc_nick]

i seriously cant help but laugh! Quiroz is waiting for the green to clear on 11!! his length is crazy!
