For those who haven't seen the video: That is pretty bad. Not a huge fan of his "intent" getting him out of a penalty there.

Holy crap Tiger is playing well. When did he last lead a tournament?

Edit: And there's the bogey.

Tiger's bad putting (random bad putting) nips him there.

Yeah, that first putt was just way off. Would it have trickled down to the hole if he hit it softer?

Yeah. I don't know what he was doing there.

He must have read it wrong. Can't hit it that far off line.

Tiger's current game reminds me a bit of Bubba Watson.  Can make lots of under par holes and some over par holes.  Though I must admit last year was a lot more Bubba than this year.  He is grinding a lot better.  Am guessing the time off did him good

What's in the bag

  • Taylor Made r5 dual Draw 9.5* (stiff)
  • Cobra Baffler 4H (stiff)
  • Taylor Made RAC OS 6-9,P,S (regular)
  • Golden Bear LD5.0 60* (regular)
  • Aidia Z-009 Putter
  • Inesis Soft 500 golf ball

I think he just has a lot of adrenaline pumping in this tournament. I think that is helping his driver but is hurting the finesse shots.

Crap... 68. 2-over over his last seven holes must be frustrating for him. Oh well. Still 7-under overall and lurking!

It's going to be a great weekend to watch!

Haven't been excited about a non-major tournament in a long, long time.

I think the most impressive may have been the chip on 8. Spieth was in almost exactly the same spot and hit a much worse chip. Spieth's happened to be straight enough that it clattered the flag and went in, but Tiger hit it close and Spieth got lucky. I think his chipping is fine. He'll sort his putting out tonight and go low tomorrow!

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Clemsonfan ·

      Day 113: 4/18/24 Stack training progress check after finishing my 6th program, and 4th Full Speed Spectrum Training session, which is recommended for my next program.     Gained 1 mph with driver, 195 g, 95g. Maintained with 280 g , and gained 2 with 145 g. Lost 1 mph on both lead and trail arm. Felt like I lost distance in my last round…

      My Swing (billchao)

      By klineka ·

      I'd agree that 4w seems like the right play here. I'm not a course designer or anything but that hole looks like it could be so much more fun if everyone played from those front 2 tee boxes that are right outside your shot cone and they cut down most of the trees down that left side of the fairway. That would give risk reward to long hitters who want to try and push it up to that left fairway, allow more players to reach that second fairway, and still allowing it to be perfectly playable for someone who only hits driver like 150yds off the tee.   Yeah it looks like 4iron aimed at that inside edge of the right bunker is the play there, especially if you don't expect a 20mph tailwind again. If it is down wind again, 5iron would be just fine too, it'd still get you inside 150yds for your approach.  Keep in mind tee marker locations too, you measured that one from the back so if those tee markers are moved all the way towards the front of that box then 5 iron is probably best just to be sure that right bunker is never in play.

      Best Shot of the Week

      By billchao ·

      Hit my tee shot just into the penalty area and barely found it. Swung hard just in case I hit it. It was slightly downhill with a heavy tailwind. I don't actually hit my 9i 170 yards.
