Apparently, the wind died down all of a sudden.  Oxnard airport to the east had issues early in the morning but is running smoothly now.

The wind is picking up a little bit now.

And Tiger just hit out of the rough, advanced the ball perhaps 10 yard, this makes me feel better about my game.

In the post-round interview he said he had a broken shoelace.

Thanks, still not convinced he was moving that well. A few grimaces on the back nine, hopefully because of the golf he was playing rather than any flair up of the injuries.

Jeez. 2 eagles for Tiger....-6 for the round

It took a long time, but it seems his game is back

That flop shot was incredible. So close for his third eagle. No doubt Tiger is looking better than he has for a long time. Shaping shots both ways, hitting the long clubs down the middle. Still some iffy shots off the tee here and there, but his current form is reflected by his current score. He's strutting again.

Tiger is playing much better but still too many silly mistakes. He could be leading by 5 or 6 strokes....

He could be... but it's nice to see him leading...  I think with each tournament he is getting better and better and this maybe the one he finally wins... I sure hope so because if nothing else it'll help stop this "when will Tiger win again?" crap.

He needs some practice to do it as well as Rocco Mediate (assuming Rocco still does it).

Speaking of practice, I was thinking about the current "No Practice" thread and pondered the current down cycle in Tiger's career. Golf isn't really that hard considering with very little practice hackers like me can maintain our current level of excellence (as low as that is), so why wouldn't a healthy Tiger win this and many more events? To suggest he couldn't (versus "probably won't" because there are so many other good players in the field) is ridiculous. Not suggesting for one second you ever did suggest that, but I think I may have at one point and flawed logic. Just throwin' that out there.

Considering there are only 18 players in the field. His chances of winning are a lot higher than any other tourney.

    • To flog this subject even further, if that's even possible, this article from Golf Monthly just appeared today in one of my news feeds. Written by a golf writer in the UK who I never heard of, he's basically saying that there should be only 3-5 rounds from the most recent 20 that should count towards the average and only competitive rounds should count. He claims the erratic scorers would have less of an advantage than they do now. He makes a lot of references to "club golfers" in the UK being the ones who are mostly dissatisfied. https://share.google/qmZZBEoJvOxHxJGil  In my experience with my league where we have golfers with indexes ranging from 5 to 40, looking at the weekly results from the past two years, I can detect no pattern that would substantiate the claim that the current system gives an unfair advantage to either erratic golfers (aren't we all?) or higher handicappers. Apparently though, at least in the UK, this seems to be "a thing."
