Set the Over-Under on Tiger's first 36 at Augusta National in 2015

I will vote later after I think about it for a bit.

[Club Rat]

I'm guessing a stroke over par, voted 145.5

[dkolo]

This is so weird; I never think of multi-day tournament scores in terms of raw numbers but in relation to par

[ChrisP]

He's playing? I must have missed that news.

[Golfingdad]

I chose 145.5 but was really tempted to say 142.5.  It certainly HAS to be one of those two.  In fact, to make myself feel better about it, I'm gonna say the magic number is 144

EDIT:  A reminder to people foolish enough to guess "WD" or "136.5" ... the question isn't "What do you think will happen," it's "Where do you think the dividing line falls?"  Going to either extreme is silly.

We will know the answer to this one by Thursday morning.

[dkolo]

If he doesn't actually play, is that a push, everyone loses,  WD selection wins, or do we just assume for the hypo that he's playing?

[Wally Fairway]

Interesting question - If I was setting the line I'd probably pick 142.5 (or even 139.5) because I think a lot of people would bet that he comes back and he plays well.

If I was betting I would likely take the over on anything up to 148, and I would hedge my bet by also taking the he WD's before finishing 36 holes

[tiger19]

143-144 range. Which is roughly what the cut line will be. I think he makes the cut and makes a charge on the weekend.

[Avalanche]

It wouldn't surprise me to see Tiger play better than his last two starts, but still miss the cut.  And head on over to Augusta a couple days early.  But who knows?

[Ferguson]

This is a tough one - trying to be objective. He'll play okay. 142.5

[kpaulhus]

I bet a friend $100 he doesnt make the cut. If he continues to chip the way he has, Augusta will eat him up.

Over his career, Tiger had averaged 72 on Thursday, 70.737 on Friday, 69.944 on Saturday, and 70.722 on Sunday (which basically lined up with my intuition). That's an average of 142.737 the first two days. Given how he's played this year (or not played), I'll say the next option up from here: 145.5. Then again, if I'm setting the odds to draw even money, as the question says, Tiger is probably the golf version of a public team. People might put a little down on the under for fun. Or the Tiger haters might load up the over. Really, I have no idea.

[bjfox10]

I'm feeling optimistic I went with 139.5. However, I am still not convinced he is playing. I cannot think of a reason why he would wait to announce whether or not he is playing other than he is still unsure if he is ready. If that is the case he is not ready which also means I have completely contradicted myself. I guess that is part of being a fan.

[David in FL]

I like 144.5, but that's not an option, so I'll take the over at 142.5......

Huh?????

This thread is asking what his first 2 rounds at the 2015 Masters will be...

[NJpatbee]

I chose just over par at 145.5.  My guess is that he will play better than his recent outings and he is likely to make the cut (if he shows up).

So I guess my 145.5 vote in the poll should have been followed up by a post that only said the word "145.5".

Wow, the topic of this thread is narrower than the #18 fairway at Augusta.

Don't sweat it. Weird response.
