Tournament Discussion - The Barclay's

[Zeph]

Did they change course today or did it just dry up really well? Looks much better today.

Tiger demonstrating shaft flex after a drive yesterday.

Looks like his left knee has fully recovered as it is firmly planted.

I'm not quite rooting against anyone, but I just got very excited when I saw, for the first time, that Ryuji Imada is back inside the top 100.

Of course, fate is completely out of his hands at the moment. He's one of my favorite players, and, I believe, the top-ranked seed (90 to start the playoffs) without a top-10 during the season. I blame that on the lack of the TPC Sugarloaf tournament this year.

(I feel bad posting two consecutive times in a thread, but this makes more sense as a second post than editing my post from an hour or so ago.)


1. Tiger 3-putted the par-3 fourth. We've seen that before.

2. I just heard one of the announcers say that these yardage books have more arrows in them than Custer saw. One of the funniest things I've heard said on TV in a long while. Did anyone catch who said it? It almost sounds like a McCord-ism.

I missed that one earlier. That's pretty funny though. I may be the only one, but watching Marino makes me nervous! He's so fidgety, prior to his shot. Of course, who am I to talk, I suck, and he's on TV, contending...

[Shindig]

Just saw Tiger's second shot on the drivable par-4 16th. Great chip - he has a very short birdie left. I'm a bit sorry to say that my first thought was that Y.E. Yang would have holed it from there

(I'm slightly upset at the number of Tiger jokes that have come to mind lately, especially since I really like him.)

[Zeph]

Though it looks like Tiger won't make it this week either, it's impressive how he come back time and time again. Must be frustrating though to finish so close to the win two tournaments in a row.

Not over yet. How cool would it be with a playoff with those at 8:

Tiger Woods, Padraig Harrington, Ernie Els, Heath Slocum, Steve Stricker.

Jacobson in a spot now. If it's Stricker or Slocum, I'm rooting for Steve!

Slocum and Stricker preparing for bogeys on 18...

Playoff lurking...

[mcfc_nick]

please miss! i want a 5 man (at least) playoff

[mcfc_nick]

damn, oh well, good putt!

Nope Slocum for that par putt got it. I kinda was rooting for tiger this game.

[mcfc_nick]

without a hole out from jacobson, slocum has it

[Zeph]

Meh...that sucks

[mcfc_nick]

hahaha, slocum's gonna move from 124th to 3rd in the fedex cup!

[Range King]

Slocum with a Tiger style clutch put for the championship.

I was so hoping for a Tiger/Ernie/Paddie and others playoff...

[is2linda]

Man i was hoping for that too. 21 feet putt. I hate this guy.

[Shindig]

And ... 5 of the last 6 years have seen a victory on TOUR from a Milton HS alum.

[Chilli Dipper]

This result is exactly what the FedEx Cup has need for the last three years: an underdog, one of the last players to qualify, rises above the game's heavy hitters to put himself right in the thick of things for the big prize. Let's see if the good momentum keeps up next week in Boston.
