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.

"El Pato" is Spanish for "the duck;" you can imagine what kind of ball Angel Cabrera hit off the tenth tee.

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

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?

    • Day 200 3-4 Wider back swing, arms up a bit higher, and added in some flow work to start getting a since of a full swing. Still focusing on arching wrist through downswing. 
    • It's going to be very difficult for the 2026 Masters to match the 2025 edition for storyline. I honestly don't know that anyone else in the field could match the story of Rory finally winning after so many years and the blow ups over the years, not to mention the career slam being completed. No one this year that I can think of is remotely close to that kind of story. Combine that with the attempts at blow ups last year (Double on the 1st, 13, 18 on first try) and the stunningly good shots that he hit in the final round (7, 15, 17, 18 on second try).  Full gamut: https://www.masters.com/en_US/watch/2025-04-13/17445961638226475/every_single_shot_from_rory_mcilroys_final_round.html
    • Let's kick off the 2026 Masters talk with… a look back at 2025 (coming soon):
    • Wow, so Europe named Luke for a third term. Luke Donald named 2027 European Ryder Cup Captain Luke Donald named 2027 European Ryder Cup Captain Who will the U.S. name? I hope not Tiger Woods.
    • I am playing Arrowhead for the first time and I am pumped.  What are some things that I need to make sure and appreciate, for those that have played it before and love it? It has been a pretty dry winter so I am expecting rough to be forgiving which is nice and it will be playing much easier than it does in the late summer (I am assuming based on other colorado courses).  What should I make sure to not miss?
