I dunno. T13 is still +3. Some players are moving. Most of them are backwards.

Neither Tiger nor Rory were able to post a lower round than Sergio Garcia, and he drove the ball out of bounds three times in a row on the same hole.

Given you couldn't even predict his second-round score, I don't take muck stock in that prediction.

Oh, Boom.

Justin Rose still in it, come on man!

I think you have to be inside 4 shots of the lead today, because there probably won't be a low score (like 66) out there tomorrow and someone of the leading group will at least get a round around par.

And you won't be right until Woods stops playing. So with that reasoning it's better not to make predictions, because they're in fact worthless.

I also predicted that he wouldn't win this week, so I'm 1/2.

I predict Woods, McIlroy & McDowell won't win this week. So I'm 3-for-3. Boom.

So Tiger said yesterday he was happy with his game??   Really?

Vonn looked smashing btw.   Who cares about golf if she's waiting for you to hole out at 18?

Lose the babe and 3/4 billion dollars and get hungry again? Is that the winning formula for Tiger? He did look more relaxed than ever before after today's round horsing around with McIlroy.     Has he lost something, the Tiger edge maybe? He's been in this game for 30 years. Look at other athletes who were pushed by a parent:  they long gone.

But you can't say that.   He's won 4 times this year, he's serious out there, he feels it.

    • Our home course would be very interesting.  It is short from the black tees (around 6000 yards) and very few holes are considered not reachable in GIR for golfers who drive max 250 off the tee.  But there are two difficulties.  Only 3 holes don't have an OB though admittedly in some cases it is just behind the green.  The harder part is almost all the fairways slope away on both sides from the centre meaning if you hit a draw or fade, you are likely to wind up at the edge of the fairway or off into the rough if you bounce in the wrong place.
    • I assume the 3 iron in your iron set would do the job.  If you don't have the club, you should be able to buy it as a single club
    • Day 45 (16 Jun 24) -  Happy Father's Day all - got in a few swings with the clubs, focused on alignment for chipping and pitching.  For me if the target it 12noon, I need to have my feet somewhere around 11 for a solid dead on line pitch/chip.  Worked from about 5yds out to 25yds.  Worked through a series of clubs - 54, PW, 8i and 6i - noting flight patterns of each.  
    • day 94. Realized I’m getting a little too handsy. Worked on getting the club into good places and much shorter, slower swings to learn the movement. 
    • 16th was a bit of loss of concentration and 18th looked like a low percentage putt from get go. I thought he ran out of mental gas those last few holes.
