Yeah, I think they said it hit a fan otherwise it would have had a chance of getting on the green.

Yeah, not very likely and felt like they were trying to make excuses for him. He was trying to hit a low hook, but clearly pushed it further right than planned. 

Currently focusing on: Key 4 - shorter backswing.

Looks like Tiger has been over-reading his breaks or at least playing for too much.  Nothing really going right for him today, but he's hanging on.

He hasn't really given himself many chances to be honest.

Let's see if Tiger knows how to drop this time around.

Looked okay. But he's probably going to +4.

He's going to need a good Friday and Saturday to catch up if he doesn't turn it around on the last holes.

Edit: Saved the bogey though, that was a most welcome one to make. 0 putts on that hole. :-P

Hey look at that.... Hopefully it is a momentum builder.

Huge put right there. Hopefully he can capitalize it a little and keep his mind straight enough go gain a little ground on the upcoming par 5s.

Tiger just doesn’t have it today (like a number of others who are surprisingly scrambling).  Just needs to finish the round with minimal damage and regroup for tomorrow.

Did the spectators call Tiger bad names since he keeps hitting balls at them?

    • Day 44. (15 Jun 24) - took yesterday off (was on the road all day, home after midnight kind of thing). Today was back to it - played local course as a solo.  Played one of my fave formats of rotating thru the tee boxes - adds dimension to the approach game.  Best part of the day was the wedge play with a first ever hole out eagle on the par 5 13th hole.  Drive was tight to the left needing a punchy iron to get back to the center of fairway.  Left about 80yds to the flag, figured an easy GW would leave me close for a birdie putt.  Caught it solid and watched it one hop into the hole….over all a good day of working on the game. 
    • As @iacas wrote “This applies to golf, too. Relentlessly chip away at whatever you’re seeking to change. It’ll add up over time in a big way.”  Have to say my work on key points is seeing consistent results -  slowly chipping away at a better approach game, leading to more GIR and nGIR which makes for easier pars and more up and downs.  
    • day 93. Chipping and practice getting a little more comfortable with longer irons 
    • 89.    Came less than a centimeter short of my first eagle. Had an ugly triple on the last too. But didn't lose a ball. Now in the last 3 rounds I have only lost 1 ball. 
    • Played the same course as yesterday today. 6,860 yards, 72.6. Scored better today. Shot a 37-38 for a 75 and did something I don't recall ever having done before. The par 5's run 522-646-523-557 and I birdied (or better) all of them. They only reason I turned in a respectable round was because I played them -5. I only hit one fairway on the front 9 and then hit 4 on the back. Only hit 9 greens today. I didn't hit the ball well at all today, but putted pretty decently. Just was in a weird swing funk. 8 bogies, 6 pars, 3 birdies, and an eagle.
