If it was, he would be shooting lower numbers even with his putting he wouldnt be missing too many inside 10 footers.

Actually I don't think the irons play has been all that bad. Not spectacular, and certainly not what it needs to be to win, but not bad. He's had a few terrible tee shots, and he's just missing putts. I think the worst part of his game is the goatee.

His putting has been fine from 20+ feet....some of his 40 foot putts were great. His putts inside 12 feet suck....and his driving...well...44% of fairways speaks for itself.

I agree with Jamo, his irons have been O.K...definitely not bad. 72% of greens, and some have been pretty close

Oldest player's last name is Senior...

Francesco Molinari has played very well so far, two rounds of 68s, only one bogey.

So I'm working ShotLink on the 16th fairway tomorrow.  The first pairing tees off at 8:30.  What time would you estimate they might get to me on the 16th?

Ah you are the biggest hater without even knowing anything about the swing he is trying to perform. And no he wasn't with foley then, his two bad pop ups were at the masters, and at The Players, both before the PGA championship which they started working together.

I have most of foleys teachings, I like some of foleys stuff. I just dont like the attitude where Foley thinks hes got all the answers. On the popups, I remember him hitting a popup towards the end of a round with a three wood after working with foley. I will look it up later.

No way dude, the goatee rocks :-P It means his evil, FU, "heel" turn might be starting, Because goatees = evil. Like this

We were actually talking the other day about how funny it would be if he did pull a page from pro wrestling and turn heel. Basically say screw you to everyone and get his mind back on world domination. To add to it, arrive to the course with a entourage filled with hot girls, and even call out a few players in interviews, or even his ex-wife. Yes, I come up with some flat out stupid ideas sometimes, but tell me every time he played wouldn't be must-see TV! You can't deny it wouldn't be!!

Tiger and Phil will be paired up again on the third round, both at even par for the tournament.

Kaymer and Mahan played in the WGC Match Play a couple of weeks ago where Kaymer won two up.

They are sort of similar players I'd say, consistent play, just keep grinding. Not making a lot of mistakes.

+1

Bit like a prime Tiger Woods.

[mcfc_nick]

more like it from AK today, still needs to sort himself out quickly though!

[Kieran123]

This tournament is being dominated by the young guys. Vijay and Paddy holding their own though

[Camo]

So I just an instant message from one of my managers, Dennis,, you watching the PGA ? Me,,,, yes Dennis,,,, did you see my house on that last hole ? Me,,,,, WTF ? When did you move to doral ? Dennis,,,,, awhile ago.... When are you coming to FL ? Let's play Me,,,,, on my way..... Lmao

[Kieran123]

Anyone sick of Miller yet? He bags Tiger swing and questions why hes changing, then goes on to say how great Mahan's swing is, saying it's one of the best on tour....

They're slightly different. High up in the list of differences... Hunter's got the exit down better than Tiger.

[xxsoultonesxx]

I've had a couple people tell me my swing looks a lot like Mahan's. If only I could get those results. Looking like a great day for those Butch Harmon students...

[Thrash13]

It's going to be a great final day at Doral, and there are several young guns who will be battling it out for the win.  I'll be pulling for Mahan of course, but I like Dustin Johnson and Nick Watney as well.  McIlroy and Donald can always go low as well.

I never get sick of Miller to be honest.  He is by far the best color guy in golf, and I've felt that way for a number of years.  He is so much easier to listen to than Faldo it's not even funny.  That's my opinion though.  I've always been a fan of the entire NBC crew.

He said something really stupid at one point today (~3 o'clock), but I can't really remember what it was...
