Walking the back nine in -3, impressive. Solid performance so far, very curious about the weekend.

Anyone see that grimace from Tiger after his nice approach?  He was removing his glove gingerly to reveal a bandage on his left index finger. Have they mentioned an injured finger?


Happened on the first hole this morning.

He hit approach shot left on hillside and slipped and fell on his butt.

He then shook his hand like he scraped it or landed on something sharp.

I know he's been battling vertigo and dizziness spells recently. They aren't looking at his knees, so that's good.

Many are going to disagree with me on this, but majors don't feel like majors with Tiger missing from the weekend...maybe I should get used to it though

Louis Oosthuizen might make the cut after a +7 start with the Fowler/Woods group.

He is -4 today (all on his back 9), at +3 overall, which is likely going to be good enough to play the weekend.  Just needs to finish out strong.

Yeah...I think this is one of the big problems with golf at this exact moment.  Nobody wants to admit it, or get used to it....But right now Tiger is just another golfer...actually another below average golfer...I think people need to start looking at the younger rising stars of the game right now....If tiger ever gets some kind of form back then great.  But as much as everyone wants him to be the face of the game, frankly right now he is a bad pro golfer....

Let's hope it's exhaustion for Day, and nothing more serious. Maybe get some fluids in him after the round, and check into the hotel early. He'll have a late tee time tomorrow, so he'll have plenty of time to gauge his fitness. Inevitably, there will be comparisons to Ken Venturi at the '64 Open.

Vertigo it looks/sounds like from the announcers.  Fell down on 9 near the green

Also a nice crack from Butch on Sky: "Would you change anything about Jordan?" "Maybe the route he takes to the bank each week so he doesn't get robbed."

I hope Day is okay, pretty impressive how he gutted it out.  Who says golfers aren't tough?

    • I'd just get the Stack Radar. I've never been totally comfortable with how it measures, those things. I think people put them in the wrong place. I think it's highly sensitive to where you swing… if you swing the tip end through the radar "beam" (it's not a beam, but you know what I mean I think), you get the true speed. But if you swing the spot 6" up the shaft through the beam, you get a much slower speed. For the wedge stuff alone I recommend the Stack Radar. Plus data entry is SOOO easy.
    • Does anyone else have the swing speed radar and had the experience of it going completely haywire? It’s been decent for me until the last 2 weeks. I’m now getting readings on back to back swings that are 20 mph off. I’m getting absolute garbage from it - I have to swing many times to get something close to right. The only thing that works (sometimes) is taking the batteries out. Here's the radar I'm talking about: Amazon.com : Swing Speed Radar - Achieve Longer Drives - Delivers Precise Golf Club Swing Speeds from 20 to 200 MPH. Master Consistency with Our US Made Doppler Radar Training Tool for Instant Speed Results : Golf Swing Trainers : Sports & Outdoors Thinking about just biting the bullet on a stack radar at this point.
    • Sorry, I missed your original post. Glad things are looking up with your wife's cancer. That's scary. Hope you can get back in to swing of things this year. I travel to Richmond quite a bit for son's soccer. I will reach out to see if we can get out together during one of the visits.
