He doesn't need to play at his best all four days to win. The way he's been grinding is a good sign, since it will keep him from dropping down the leaderboard on the off days.

I never noticed this moment during the 1997 Masters final round. After the shot, this kid goes right up to Woods and taps him on the shoulder, Woods is oblivious, upset at the shot he hit.

I pointed that out to my wife the other day when I watched it, too.

I don't think that would happen today. I wondered what the kid said, but kids say silly things. Maybe if Woods didn't have the extra layers he might have noticed. Anyways, that was a cool moment. I bet that kid is a Tiger fan for life.

His short game is elite now. Maybe Top 5 short game in the world once again. That allows him to not always have great ballstriking and still be able to post solid scores. If he stays healthy, I think he will win #80 this season.

On a side note, which Masters did all of you watch first? I went to the 1997 Masters :-D

I was thinking, man, I wish they had all the rounds of 1997. The second round, the announcers were all like Holy Toledo what is going on?

And I love how he had to take a drop because he was in the crosswalk.

I'm starting with 2001. The fourth in a row. I've never seen 1986 before, so likely will go with that one after.

Man, 2011 was a ripe opportunity for TW's first comeback after 54 holes to win a major. Shot -5 on the front nine and was tied for the lead after 10 holes, but only shot Even par on the back. 3-putt from only 30 feet at the 12 hole derailed his momentum. The putter killed him on the week with at least six 3-putts. Schwartzel finished 4 ahead of TW.

The golf gods were smiling on Schwartzel that day with an impossible chip-in birdie at the first hole followed by a holed iron shot for eagle at the 3rd hole. Probably gained 3 shots on the field with those two holeouts. He took full advantage of his opportunity with 4 straight birdies to finish the round. Spectacular stuff and surprising that he has done very little since then.

Not up to date on commercials, but there has yet to be a Woods TaylorMade commercial, right?

Quote

“We know Tiger’s brand strength,” Mr. Ilagan said. “Whether he does play or not doesn’t really matter. That’s just icing on the cake.”

With Mr. Woods apparently close to his previous form — he is the betting favorite to win his fifth green jacket at the Masters — that icing is already tasting sweet. Already in 2018, Bridgestone’s sales of golf balls have increased 115 percent over the same period a year ago. 

TaylorMade, which signed Mr. Woods to use its clubs in January last year, said it saw no need to build a marketing campaign around the star, because the mere fact that he plays with the clubs or talks about their performance in interviews does the selling job.

:-P I mean like a commercial commercial, a highly produced 30 second spot for national tv, like the Nike ones, where he's breaking windows, tackling a thief, juggling a ball, or telling us golf's not hard, or the one with Yo-Yo Ma playing in the background.

    • Day 159: did a stack session.  
    • Day 84 - 2024-12-23 I hit balls for 20 minutes after lessons and after getting down a BodiTrak for resale. Hinge. Path was weirdly consistent today at 1.6° or so ± like 0.8° only.
    • Day 13: 12/23/2024 A lot more mirror work today. Using my same swing thought. Some slow motion, some full motion, some in between. Today I made sure I took every swing all the way to the finish. 
    • Day 234 (23 Dec 24) - Mystery Monday - what to do today….pretty straight up as I spent time with the 58 and a series of pitches (lower flighted all the way up to high fliers over the tulip tree).  Wrapped up the day going lower ball with the 9i and easy bump and runs.  Again as always the setup was key - case in point, got lazy and casually set up, feet straight and promptly hit a couple of nice heely shots hard right.  Knew it immediately, as next couple I went through the routine and flew the balls promptly too the target point.  Setup - setup - setup…
