63 by Tiger with two eagle putts that could have dropped, 66 by Mickelson (who got away with a few crappy shots). WOW.

I haven't seen much better play from Tiger since 2000. WOW.

My prediction tomorrow: Mickelson "wilts" to a 68, Tiger shoots 65 to win by one. Depending on the weather, mostly.

But WOW!!!

This is awesome. This is the kind of performace people want to see. I love seeing the best players trade punches.

Sometimes, living in Indiana really stinks. The Doral wasn't televised here because of the Big Ten basketball tournament on NBC. (Who wants to see I.U. versus Northwestern in the first round anyway?) I had to periodically check on pgatour.com to see what was happening. Its not exactly the same as seeing it unfold live

So who will win? My money's on Tiger. All Tiger talked about in his post-round interview was making birdies. All Phil talked about was playing with Tiger.

Phil will play in the same group as Tiger, but he won't play with Tiger if you get my meaning.

C'mon, chickens! Who will win? You have until 1:45pm EST to put your opinion down.

I predict Mickelson will win. He started with 65-66-66. I think he'll put up a 66 or 67. If he does, Tiger needs 64 or 65, and I don't think he will follow up a 63 with another GREAT round. If I had my choice, I'd like to see Furyk shoot 59 and steal it from them both!

He shot 64-66-66 and got lucky yesterday. Sunday will feature Sunday pin placements, too. Another 66 or 67 isn't a lock, especially when playing with Tiger.

But you've put your opinion on the line. Anyone else?

And I'd have had it if they hadn't bogeyed the easy hole, 16.

WOOOHOOO!!! That was exciting!!!

      Best Budget Golf Ball

      By NHpro ·

      Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.

      Is that the current generation Gamer? Another old standby for a firm and inexpensive ball is Pinnacle.  There are two models, the Rush and the Soft, but I don’t know what compression they are.

      Good advice, but according to DSG website it is a 45 compression ball. My current ball is the Top-flite Gamer at 70. 45 is too low for me to go.

      The 3 piece Maxfli Trifli is 2 dozen for $35.  The Trifli does not feel as soft as the Maxfli Softfli, which is why I like it. Other options would be one of the Srixons, which have a buy 2 get 1 free offer.

      7 Wood

      By ZenShot ·

      I have been carrying a 7 wood more often this year.  It’s especially handy if you have a downhill lie to an uphill green.  It’s also handy if the rough on the course is deep.
