You know what, I love watching golf with or without Tiger, but having Tiger back and not sucking it up hard makes watching golf a little more fun.  Im always interested in how hes playing.

That was awesome watching, i think the tension of the camera's following Woods and the excitement of what he will produce made it the best round ive watched this year,

couple that with the tension between him and williams, if thye get paired it will be fun to watch.

also everybody chasing down day, can he hold it together?

IMHO anybody could take this with a good run of birdies, Watney seems very consistent at the moment

LOVE IT!

Oh and my predictions

1) Watney

2) Woods

3) Fowler

4) Scott

A bit much Tiger and Darren coverage yesterday though. With the odd shot of Harrington and Rose hitting it all over the place. They did show some shots of Scott, which was good, even with his broom.

I am not sure what people were expecting, Tiger hasnt played since May and people dont want him to get camera time?  Never happen.  Just wait until the weekend.

A handshake on 1 and 18 is all you would see.

Tiger might cup his ear a couple time to see what Stevie is saying

Not much of a Tiger fan here.  Although I won't be cheering for him, sure am glad to see him back in the field.  Do find it a bit ironic that Stevie is in first place with Adam Scott right now.  Drama keeps it interesting!

Tiger is playing so bad that he's only 1 shot ahead of Padraig Harrington

[Kieran123]

back to back birdies, now at -2 again

[deasy55]

In non-Tiger news, Rickie Fowler just holed his 2nd shot on the 3rd to go 6 under for the day and 8 under for the tournament.

[michaeljames92]

did he miss like a two footer for par on his front nine? that's what shotlink said anyway?

[Kieran123]

I saw that too. I guess he did.

Ricky ticky tango making a move with another birdie. Ryan Moore also playing well

[Zeph]

Well...Tiger is nothing to see here, move on. Good thing he played early today so we get coverage of other players in the broadcast. Phil is looking...fabulous today.

Please explain the tension between TW and SW?  All I have read is the reports that it was a parting of the ways between two friends and it was very civil.

I'm excited to see what happens the next few days, he was like his old self out there today.

A media guy pointed this out to him and he refuted it.  He said he's hitting his 8-iron 180, yet to be verified by shot link...  His claim is that adrenaline and heat cannot account for this.  His stock 8-iron a few years ago was 155.  Who knows what it is at this point.  I do find the continual spew of the phrase "I'm just compressing the ball so much better" funny.  He said this is different than hitting in the middle of the club, whatever that means.  Originally I thought it just meant delofted with a less negative angle of attack than he used to have.
