Hoping that the smoker falls apart. Watched him discard a cigarette butt on the course yesterday. Not a good look.

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

My favorite part of the tournament so far is watching Levin plumb-bob with his 8 foot putter.  I bet that extra length really helps the plumb-bob accuracy.  Snark aside, it seems to be working for him this time.

Sabbatini throwing darts, he really looks in prime position now. Expecially after Levin's shot into 12. 8 under may very well win this.

Woods' 3 wood is a weapon, if he can drive the ball like this at the US Open, he will be right up there again. But today, he needs at least 2 birdies coming in.

It wasn't quite 16 at Augusta circa '05,  but man I can't believe he tried that with the tourney on the line.  UNREAL.

Fowler just got a very good look at what makes Tiger Tiger. Probably the highlight of his day, since he's 10 over on his round. So far. And the lumps on the pregame show were actually talking about Tiger passing the torch to him, like Jack did to Tiger at the 2000 PGA.

Do these guys reallyhit an 8 iron on 16? 205 par 3 and they said tiger put an 8 like most others. It then said sabbitini hit 6 whih would make much more sense. 205 8 is ridiculous and I doubt anyone can really hit that

The wife thinks I hurt myself I screamed so loud when that went in.  That's what some people don't get..how many people do you think did the same as me watching this...ALOT.  No other player on the planet has the same effect.

I'm surprised that Levin and Sabbatini are keeping pace with Tiger, but Sabbatini appears to be cracking a bit especially after hearing the roar on Tigers chip in.

    • Ooh, I don't know about that. I've hit flop shots that are 6-7° down. The more you widen the spin loft the less ball speed you put into the ball.
    • Re: your graphic, ‘ I expected a little more from a varsity letterman.’ Lol…just another one for @boogielicious
    • Can't brag about a 50 last night but it was the best round of my season (4 rounds of 9 holes) so I am not as upset as I could be.  One thing I am noticed is that I got a little more confident in my long hybrids and I attempted a couple longer shots that typically I would just lay up and those holes were a big part of the lower score.  Not every shot was great but good enough that they helped.  I even shot par on a Par 5 after taking a drop.  On that hole I would usually lay-up to @ 100 yards and often miss the green altogether with my 3rd shot (or worse chunk my approach and put it in the waste area).  Yesterday I went for it from @ 200 yards out with wind in my face and landed in the waste area short of the green.  My drop left @ 40 yards in and I stuck it to 3 feet for my par putt.  If I had laid up I would have avoided the penalty stroke but likely would not have been on the green in regulation and may still have been working for par.  By going for it I gave myself a chance at birdie and still saved par. I do not plan on being crazy aggressive but I think I tend to be too conservative at times so I will "go for it" a little more often going forward. 
    • Day 14 (15 May 24) - Worked with the SW in the backyard, short pitches from 10yds up to 30yds.   Focused on ball placement in stance - ball back, ball forward, ball center.  Afterwards moved to inside the shop to work on putting pace on the rug - putting one way gives about an 8' putt, going the other a 6' before bumping onto the adjacent rug.  Focused there on the line - picking a target point about 18"-24" out and making sure the ball rolls through that point. 
    • When someone is trying to validate their choice, statements concluding with "right" are often the MO.  Too bad he thinks he has to keep defending his decision, just do like guys like DJ and HVIII - take the money, play the tourneys and keep quiet.
