Uhhh, your last sentence is unnecessary. He's not going to post -8 for six holes. Par on 13, water on 14…

I know. But... I'll take what I can get.

Tiger is -3 through 3 on the back (E on front), E for the tournament. So if he can just play the remaining six holes in -8 or so, he can post a number to really make the leaders think.

Alternately, whatever he produces might be too little too late, at least for this tournament.

Hate to break it to you, but he just tripled. I guess that sums up the year for Tiger so far since Augusta. Everytime you think he's taking steps forward, he takes steps back.

Did Chamblee just say that Bill Haas hasn't had his moment in a big event?

I'm not sure if Bill Haas or the PGA Tour (via the FedExCup) should be more offended.

He was probably referring to majors. Haas has appeared in 50 major championships/Players Championships and has not posted one top-10. That's pretty incredible. The Fed Ex Cup win was big, but I think any player that's already rich (which is most of these guys) would tell you they'd rather have a major championship over a Fed Ex Cup trophy any day of the week.

A few sage observations: -Justin Thomas, Martin Flores, Chesson Hadley, AND George McNeill all making runs today!

Soooo who do you guys think is gonna win this thing?

I think Ryo Ishikawa will win.

Chris Kirk. Kid's due for a bigger win.

Still wondering which of these guys sabotaged Rory's putter. He should be about 10 strokes ahead. Unreal.

I'm not sure, but I think it was the Monstars from Space Jam.

I do think Kirk of all the boring no namers is gonna win. Think this will take Kirk off the no namers list today. He is boring, but very impressive game.

Yeah Kirk is pretty solid. I'd prefer to see Thomas win but I'd be wonderfully delighted to see Rory Sabbatini just fall apart miserably.

Pat Perez has his own style, real California with the hair, looks cool.

Rickie looked better with the long hair too.

Charley Hoffman, no.

I'm down to a 10 handicap. At this rate, I'll get to scratch at 90 years old!

I don't know about that. Cool is definitely not one of the first words that come to mind. The word I would use is probably something similar to what many people think of his personality.

Wow ....Adam Scott just needs to start all over with his silly putting game. Ditch the ridiculous 10ft putter and just putt the damn ball. 3 putt from 3ft. Wow.

    • Day 133 (25 Apr 24) - Worked with the Divot Board today added a piece of cardboad behind the ball to help reinforce ball first contact. Contact improved through the round.   Added grandson's football goal posts about 10yds out to add a good start line visual Good session today. 
    • Day 120: 4/25/24 Full Speed Spectrum training session. Low energy today and my speed was lower than normal. Will see what I can do on Saturday.
    • Day 541, April 25, 2024 Ten minutes after lessons. Still not caught up, but should be by tomorrow evening.
    • Playing irons only may lead to some short-term gains, but you'll want to at least practice with the driver if you ultimately have some decently good goals.
    • He plays from 68.3 / 124.  A combo tee setup of normal mens and seniors.   I play from 69.7/127.   He left after taking a triple on 14 and then leaving.  Which plays to what I think his plan is,   He doesn’t stroke on 14 but would have to take bogey for non completed holes on the way in.   Maybe that’s giving him too much credit, but he found a way to add 4 shots to his score over three holes so….     I looked up his last 20 rounds in GHIN and he has a lot of rounds at easier courses (rating and slope) that are higher than his normal rounds at home.   Since I mostly have his front nine score during the match (36) to go on, he has three nine hole scores at our course posted that are 41-43. I wrote the whole thing up to the head of our golf association who runs all the tournaments.  Our pro is not involved officially in the tournaments because the golf associations are separate from the club.   He’s pretty well known for this, however I was pretty shocked at how well he played carrying a 15.   I think eventually they will do something, a lot of people have complained.  The golf association threw someone out a couple of years ago and it was a three month situation where the guy retaliated.  They probably are hesitant to go thru anything like that again.  That is a rather crazy story I might post about later.
