got it back on 8...

scoring isn't nearly as good today... throw out sneds, and two 65's this morning were the best rounds...

yea, but Tiger, excluding 7, is throwing darts; he needs to score today.

he certainly appears to have control of his iron play today... that's good to see... putts aren't going in though... the magic wand isn't as cooperative today... :-( can't believe that one on 9 stopped short...

For what it's worth, you can watch it online on Golf Channel Live Extra if you have the right cable subscription. I have Comcast and was able to start watching it online.

That Rick Smith commercial is hilarious because, not only is that guy a known dipshit, but in that commerciall, his own students name is misspelled. Brendan Steele is spelled Steel. Christ.

Good to see him playing well this week. Continue to feel he'll get some of his game back and will rack up more wins and another major in his career. I don't think he'll ever get to the level of Jordan or Rory ever again, but he doesn't need to reach that level to win more tourneys and at least one more major. Maybe Zach Johnson level....that'd be good enough.

Christ.

How the hell can they misspell his name?

You're right, that's hilarious.

I haven't seen anything of the tournament, but how is the rough?

Tiger's driving accuracy is not very impressive, hovering around 50% of the fairways. Still hits 80% of the greens, but it feels like a course where he can get away with poor driving.

    • Shot of the Week for me was definitely this drive that set up my second birdie of the back 9 yesterday. It’s a longer par 4 but usually the prevailing wind is with you (the slightly longer hole to the right is a par 5 that usually plays into the wind). I don’t usually hit driver on this hole and honestly couldn’t think of the last time I did when I was standing on the tee. Yesterday, the wind was in the opposite direction so I had to hit into a headwind. I decided I’d need the extra length with driver on the tee and absolutely piped it. It was perfectly launched with low spin that just penetrated through the wind. Technically the approach shot was worth more in SG (I hit it inside 4’), but this drive set up the entire hole.

    • Rory and Bryson are two of my favorites for some time.  This was a great watch.  Poor Rory looked gutted and (heat?) exhausted at the end there.  Bryson play US Open golf - Captain Scramble.  Avoid the blowups and accidentally find a birdie on occasion and it goes far,  
    • 2nd shot into a short par 5. I had ~185 left but was just off the fairway to the right with some low tree limbs in front of me. Aimed at the water and hit a punch slice 4 iron that started low under the trees, rose higher as it kept going, cut towards the middle of the green, carried the water and rolled to ~25 feet for an eagle putt. Lipped out the eagle putt but never going to complain about tap in birdies.  It was one of those shots that I've done before and was a perfect yardage gap. I have a punch 4 iron swing that I know goes right at 185, and I can cut the ball much easier than I can draw it, so it was actually a much easier shot for me than it appears to be in the picture. I would have been fine if it would have over cut too, rough isn't very penal here so it would have been an easy chip from short right.  Although to be fair I didn't realize/remember that the water cut in as far into the fairway as it did, I thought it stopped right around the left edge of the green. 
    • I absolutely LOVE my new Titliest U505 3 iron.  It was slightly chunky looking at first, but I don't even notice it anymore after just a couple rounds with it. It's super easy to launch it high and I have no issues flighting it down either.  Perfectly fine to hit off the tee for tighter tee shots and for 2nd shots into par 5s. Even the mishits go much further than I think they should, it's quite forgiving.
