A bit poor driving today too, but better than yesterday. His irons are still a bit out of wack. He hit a couple of close ones today and made some putts, but nothing consistent. Missing a lot of greens, which makes birdies hard to come by.

Amazing how lucky Tiger was.  The players were greater back in Jack's day, then Tiger won 14 majors against weak competition, and now the players are great again.  Just let Tiger get on a major roll a

This is ridiculous. Seve was a great player, but to be showing a retrospective on him instead of LIVE coverage of a major is stupid.

CBS doesn't dictate how much live coverage we get; Augusta does. At least it's about golf, and at least it's not a basketball game that will run 20 minutes long.

Nice interview from Tiger considering the end result of the round. Gotta be in a good place mentally to interview and still come across semi-happy.

Was that on TGC, or one of the live feeds?

Tiger seems more tired of his game right now than angry. He knows he can play a lot better than this, but isn't able to get there this week. He'll have to go out there the next two months to get his swing ingrained better for the US Open.

I know that brocks. It still sucks.

That's how I've always interpreted his swearing and club slamming. I swear when I miss a shot that, honestly, I can hit the way I want to maybe one out of three times. Imagine how mad you would get if 1) It's a shot to stay in contention for the Masters, not to break 90, and 2) You can hit it perfectly all day on the range

Was on Sky Sports in the UK so not sure which feed they were using to show it. :/

As an aside and totally off-topic -

I just watched the tribute to Seve & they spoke of his 3-wood from the bunker on 18 at the 1983 Ryder Cup. I witnessed that shot. I was following Seve & Fuzzy all day & when we got to his ball in the bunker, both me & my buddy Gary said he's cooked - he had a lip about 10 feet in front of him with water to carry to reach the green. He has to lay up.

He didn't. And when he hit the shot my first thought was, that's ridiculous. It's in the water. When it landed on the green, there wasn't cheering...it was more shock. I looked at Gary & he looked at me, our mouths open in awe, and we just started clapping.

I just checked YouTube & there's no video of this shot. Too bad, cuz you'd see this 23-year old punk with a 'fro right behind him when he hit it. That was me.

My club should arrange range tournaments.

It's an even-numbered year....

9 straight pars and then a birdie is "making a move"?

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

And it's starting to look like we might get the Rory-Tiger Sunday pairing we all hoped for. Rory is six over through nine.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      By mdl · Posted

      Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
