Yea I am diffently going to be watching. Will be interesting to see how Watney holds up against Tiger.

They say golf is like life, but don't believe them. Golf is more complicated than that.

Is anyone else laughing at the announcers because they can't figure out what the "S" on Ryan Moore's hat stands for? Every time you get a close-up of his head the announcer says, "I can't figure out what it is. I think it stands for the San Francisco Giants.I bet the people in California are hating this. "

This is turning into the sort of showdown we've wanted to see for years. Too bad it's happening while 90 pct of American golf fans are asleep. Nice treat for me, though, since I work late and normally watch golf reruns at this hour. It's cool to have live golf on.

It should be an interesting final round later tonight. Woods and Mickelson, plus a few of my personal favorite players (Moore, Westwood, Kim), all in the mix for the win.

I had to look up the meaning behind the "S" myself.

The answer only further solidifies my opinion of Ryan's awesomeness.

I was a bit surprised that they wasn't able to identify the Scratch logo.

Tomorrow will be a great round, Phil seems to be in great shape and mood. Hope both he and Tiger bring out their A game tomorrow.

It's running live from 4AM here, I might just get up and watch it. Sending a rerun at 2PM, but it's not the same. If I need more sleep it's finished by 8-8:30, so I can get some hours in before noon.

Did you fail to read two posts up?

Ryan Moore's fortitude to play what he wants and dress how he wants is looking to be a great move for him.

Personally I couldn't stop thinking about how big an idiot he looks like out there. I guess that skater/pothead look appeals to some people, but if you ask me, he looks like a real dope.

It appeals to me, I think he is a great breath of fresh air. Every young person who sees him is pleased to see someone chill'n. Women my age think he is adorable. He is not thugged or tatted up, he seems the personification of a focused young man doing his thing. Kim, Gay and Poulter are the ones who look like a circus sideshow. Phil Mickelson is still one of the creepiest people on the tour, I really do not like watching Phil play.

Wow, what a crazy last day.

Starts with Tiger +4 on the front 9.

Then within 5 minutes:
Phil sweeping completely under a flop shot on 16, failing to advance the ball.
Ernie after a marvelous round to get into the lead by 1, hits it into the water 50 yards short of the 18th green.
Tiger duffing it into the trap right after Phil's blunder.
Phil holing a 30 footer for a crucial par on 16.

Can't wait to see how it finishes up. Still to come: Can Ernie drain his long par putt to hold the lead? Can Phil birdie the par-3 17th or par-5 18th to win? Can Tiger finish birdie-eagle to tie?

Man, if this was on a Sunday afternoon on CBS, even if it weren't a major it would go down as one of the most dramatic final rounds this year.

Well, this certainly was entertaining. One of the best finishes I've seen this year. Lots of players in contention, I would have loved to see Ernie take it home with a great 9 under on the last day. Rory also with a -9 today, great golf, he's really the real deal. Nice to see Kaymer, Westwood, Quiros, Molinari and Kjeldsen up there.

    • I'll say again… you have a different definition of "temporary" and "speed" than I do. For your handicap to go up FOUR shots means you were through the soft cap and approaching the hard cap. If you did it over 15 rounds (leaving five potentially lower scores), then you played REALLY bad golf over that stretch because it's likely that only three or four of the best of those 15 rounds were actually counted, so if the three or four best scores RAISED your handicap five shots (three at 100%, 2 at 50% once you hit the soft cap), then that's some BAD golf over an extended (not temporary) period of time. And here's the thing… play 15 good rounds, or even just EIGHT, and it'll DROP again, even faster. Handicaps still drop faster than they rise, not only because of the way we calculate it (best 😎 but because of the caps. Right… it's not like you're not needing the shots. You're playing really badly, and your handicap is still lagging behind your play.
