Nice 2nd shot into the par 5 Woods.

Wow great shot right there by Tiger with a 4 iron. Shame it ran off the edge.

[zipazoid]

OMFG - a 4 iron from TWO SEVENTY ONE - and he he hit it OVER the green...so that's what, 290?

[Infamous 273]

nice bird tiger.  that's E for the rd the hard way.

[weswaitman]

That place explodes if Tiger holes that eagle chip.

Haha, yeah, that would have never happened under butch. :)[/quote] Butch spent time on the range with Phil on Thursday evening, and helped him to a smooth 78 on Friday. I think Tiger and Phil should see if Chamblee has time to coach them. But there's not much to complain about the way Tiger has played the last few holes. Looks like he's settling down, and the chances are good for a Woods-Scott final group tomorrow.

Woods to -7

[nevets88]

Scott pulling away...

[Pudderdubber]

Woods is creeping up to tying Sneds.

Scott can't miss a putt right now!

That sounds like a good idea. :P

Scott has been hoisting that putter for several years. And he's proceeded to bend over with a long putter?

Works for him. But don't expect immediate results.

[nevets88]

I love these camera angles. Scott watching objects getting smaller on his rear mirror.

[Jmdmbike]

Man, Adam Scott has an incredible golf swing. If the putting holds up, he's looking tough to beat. Pulling for him to win this thing.

Have to say, I think ESPN is doing a great job with the coverage. Camerawork is good, like the production, not too much or not enough of any certain player (though it certainly helps that the leaderboard is pretty well-defined). Good mix of announcers.

Agree. Azinger, North, Strange, Browne...guys we don't usually get a lot of, and Tirico does an excellent job orchestrating it all. It's a nice break of the somewhat steady diet of Miller/Feherty/McCord/Faldo we usually get.

I think Olin Browne has a second career ahead of him in broadcasting.

Scott is putting up quite the distance between himself and the rest of the field. Only three bogies so far this week.
