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.

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 Tour 900 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!
