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

WTF.

What is Tiger Woods's profession? Answer: he is an entertainer. That's how he makes his living. The entertainment he provides is playing golf, very well. Somehow, society has determined that playing g

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.

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

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?

      Issue With Finger Aiming on Short Putts

      Hmm... didn't know that. Good to know.

      Issue With Finger Aiming on Short Putts

      By iacas ·

      Yes, please, because if you said it was 20" but should be 10", that's a 10" error, but if it was 2" and 1", that's a one-inch error. Which is why… there is a different process for shorter putts (inside of about 6-8'). You don't really use your fingers anymore there. I misspoke when I said that you use the low edge of the hole. That's the old way. In reality, you don't use your fingers at all inside of whatever your crossover point is. That's not what he was doing there, no. He was just trying to see the slopes and tilts, not actually measuring distances and holding up fingers. His fingers were on the green. :D

      Issue With Finger Aiming on Short Putts

      By p1n9183 ·

      This is the concept I wanted to be noticed. I can recheck the numbers to make them more accurate.  The closer you get to the hole, the more the height of the player affect the reading of the putt and the system starts to diverge from reality. Aiming to the low part of the hole in short putts is a way to patch the method so that it gets closer to reality. Only using it at ball heigth, as camilo villegas used to read lines, is going to give you the exact distance away from the hole to aim at.

      I stepped off 10' from a wall electrical outlet this morning when I read it and held up two AimPoint fingers at about stimp 10… and got a little over 8" (because I was 10' and not 9').
