If you look at the leader board Woods is listed in the third position behind Rose although they are both tied for 2nd. Eventhough they are both tied don't you think Rose should be in the last pairing? We all know that most of the Masters winners have been in the last pairing of the day and are they putting Woods in the last pairing because they want to make it more dramatic for TV? I don't know about most of you, but I am a little disturbed about this and think they should have been paired as the leader board shows. Seems they are trying to stick to tradition of the winner being the last pairing and putting Woods in it seems unfair and I am a Woods fan.

I know that I may be just statistics but it is as much a mental game and I think this could favor Woods. Any thoughts on this? Am I making too much of an issue?

Tiger was the first one in the clubhouse with +3, thus he gets the highest seed for all ties at that number. That is a standard fromat. If Rose and been playing ahead of him, then it would be Rose in the final pair.

Exactly. Nothing to see here. Standard practice.

Tiger has his work cut out for him today though.

Yeah, for some reason I just didn't realize that was the case, my mistake, that is a legit.

I'm fairly certain that's not true. Also, his "12 for 12" thing is still alive. He wasn't leading after 54 holes.

I heard that on Golf Channel It could be wrong. It does sound right.

      I have an update… I don't have much of a response, because the fact that they would ADD the numbers for the lead and trail shoulder together… I mean, wow. I was giving them too much credit. Nobody would think to assume they were doing THAT. That's beyond comical. One of the biomechanists I talked to put it this way: "So if I squatted down and went from 180 to 90 deg knee angle, then I would say 180 deg range of motion because I have two knees?" I'd type more (maybe), but honestly, I'm laughing a bit too hard. 🤣 Update: Mini Manavian blocked me on Instagram, so I cannot see his post showing Bryson with about 50° of range of motion (with a driver) from P4 to P7, and 75° only if you go out to the mid-follow-through. What a terrible loss for me. 😉

      Thanks, interesting to read. The swing is definitely very timing dependent. I hit it consistently I guess but consistently bad.

      I've shot 91-74 on the same day before. Couple of years ago played a two round tournament on Bethpage Black. I shot 72 in the first round and 90 in the second. First round I played very well. Second round I played okay, but had about 5 shots that hit the lips of bunkers and bounced down into them. A couple of those wound up in footprints - I was unamused - and I failed to get them out. Anyway - lots of bunkers and my bunker play isn't great and then add a couple of footprints and me getting pretty tired and it added up to a lot.  Only you can really tell though what's causing the variance. It might be that your swing is very timing dependent and when it's timed well you play well and when it's not then it goes all over the place. In that case, some lessons and working on your swing could be the key. If it's more that you tend to feel like you hit it fairly consistently, but you have days where the shots come off and days where they don't, then that's more likely a course management issue. If that's what you need to work on, then you could read Lowest Score Wins and build a plan of attack based on that.  Rest assured though that a pretty big range from high to low is fairly common. Even PGA Tour players often have 18-20 shot spreads from best to worst rounds in a season. It's a common affliction among golfers.
