Maybe the networks continue to cover Woods' rounds to see if he can turn things around and start contending again?

Yesterday's round was pretty bad, but he showed on the back 9 that he's still there, still wants to make it for Deustsche Bank...he needs a great final day and I'm sure TV coverage will be on him in light of this.

Tiger's swing is much better this week. Like he said, he's still got some of the old swing in him, which we saw on the first tee yesterday. Such a hole obviously affect the entire round. Once he gets these changes incorporated, watch out.

Yep, and that was exactly his comment after the round: it was his old swing coming back.

His performance is a big story, as would the world's #1 when going through a stretch like this, regardless of who it is. Like said above, if he had put together the kind of magic he's capable of and he hadn't been shown at all, people would be pretty upset. So if he falls apart, it's news, and if he puts together a miracle, it's bigger news. Plus, they showed one stroke every now and then while showing pretty continuous coverage of the top groups. Seems reasonable to me. Tiger coverage amounted to a lot less time than the commercials they showed, so what's the problem?

That whole Furyk deal with missing his tee-time by a few minutes, and getting DQ'd was just crazy. Even Mickelson was frustrated about the entire thing, because and he said it wasn't very fair.

Woods had a roller coaster week.

After 27 holes: -8
After 45 holes: Even par
After 72 holes: -7

So he had a brutally bad 18-hole stretch of +8, but he also shot -15 on the other 54 holes of the tournament. Pretty crazy up and down week for him, haha.

No, I think it's great. Why would you watch or post in a thread about it if you hate it so much?

And, it makes the season last longer.

Which, is definately a good thing; if you're a golfer.

    • 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.
