I agree with whoever said Tiger is just sand-bagging. He must read this forum and doesn't want us to be dissappointed with a boring run away win tomorrow!

is it just me, or does vijay really suck at putting. i feel embarrassed for the guy. he's not even giving himself a chance.

vijay's confidence with his putter has basically evaporated... he used to be at least a decent putter but he's really struggling :x

tiger and yang? not really keen on that matchup. tiger and paddy would be infinitely better. i love to watch them go tete a tete.

I'm with ya. He really knows his golf but he wears me out watching him. He has some great tips on his show. "The golf fix"

Yes he does! I love watching the golf fix, he always has some great info. As far as his announcing goes, I do like him much better than Faldo (who sounds like me, doing a bad Austin Powers Impression), but there have been a couple times where I just wanna tell Breed to chill out for a sec, and breathe!! lol

Yeah, Veej has definitely had his chances, but the putter failed him, in a major kinda way. I'm like you, feel kinda bad for him. He

should have been in the lead by now, but blew too many easy putts.

I wouldn't say he sucks at putting. I've seen plenty of guys who SUCK at putting. Vijay had a bad putting day. Big difference in my mind.

ok... perhaps he doesn't 'suck' at putting, he's just really bad at it. honestly, unless you're putting consistently at all times, i don't think one can rightly be called a good putter. he missed four within 5 feet. not to mention he's in the bottom ten in putts per round.

I think the pressure to win another major will really tell on Tiger tomorrow and I predict a mild choke. Anybody within 6 shots of the lead can win tomorrow.

Stenson is a real contender if he plays well tomorrow....Lucas Glover could make a charge too.

According to ESPN stats, he's 168 out of 200. Certainly not great, but not in the bottom 10 either. That being said, his putting avg. per hole is 1.81 per round. No. 1 is AK with 1.741 per hole. That's not much difference. I still contend he had a worse day than his average.

VJ has always struggled with the putter. If he was a great putter there's no telling how many wins he'd have.

...I can't wait to see how he behaves when he's really in contention tomorrow....winning another major is a big deal for Tiger as he is not bothered about run of the mill tour events....it's nice to win them but majors is what he plays and practices for now.

If he gets off to a good start then he will be fine but if he starts shakily and Paddy birdeis etc then it could be very compelling viewing.

Tiger has never lost after leading through 54 holes or more. I will bet my house on it that Tiger will win and tie Jack.

I hit the ball farther than Corey Pavin, yet he's the one under par after three days playing a 7,600-yard course. How does he do it? (He gets his 260-yard drives in the fairway, while my 260-yard drives have minds of their own. It's a simple concept, really.)

    • Day 10 (10 Jun 26) - Played in the midweek shootout at my home course - on aerated and sanded greens - day of trying to figure tempo to get the best roll on the greens.  Approach game was decently solid as was shots off the tee.  
    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
