anyone know if you can watch live on the website? they have a "featured group" up on their website, with Jason Day, Tiger Woods, and Patrick Reed; however, it doesn't say anything about watching their round.

Walked the front nine of the pro-am with Tiger. Talked and walked with Chris for a few of those. Got some high speed video from wherever I happened to be (so camera angles are not as I'd get them for students). And that's about all I'll say or share of that. Except that Tiger's equipment guy confirms his driver shaft is 70g. :-)

Almost a perfect angle on Fleetwood, the 1/4 speed chirping of the birds is cool too, chokes up about an inch:

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Tiger with a horrible start. Bogey's the first, and put's the 2nd hole in the water.

Not that it means anything, but here's a take from a volunteer marshal.

Volunteer marshal on Tiger Woods: "He looked real bad on the range. Like he's going to miss the cut."

I love to watch Tiger play, but the constant analysis of his golf swing and where his mind is on every bad shot is getting so old. I mean, I get why because he was so great, but enough is enough. This morning I heard "Tiger Woods is smiling...he never used to smile." The guy is trying to find his game, we know. thanks.

When one has not really played consistently since 2010, and then undergoes 2 swing changes, I think it's tough, even for the best.

When one has not played consistently, has missed cuts, and then goes into golf hibernation for 2-3 weeks at a time, I question the strategy.

Would it not be better to immerse yourself into tournament play so you can constantly play in competitive conditions?

How did he not play consistently as recently as 2013, played 16 events & won 5 (btw 16 events is a full year for Tiger).

He has never immersed himself in playing tour events - even when he dominated the tour, he did it playing about 20 times a year

Players play, tough players win!

I don't like the driver swings I've seen so far. Weird swings like he's trying to steer it. And again...That high right shoulder on the follow thru. Not smooth and loose.
