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

I find it very strange -  and I doubt that I'm the only one -  that you seem to see anything that Woods does as a personal victory for you when it doesn't live up to the hopes of others. My hunch is t

Tiger bogeys 16. Back to +4.

17 and 18, he bogeyed both after going ahead from the chip-in on 16 in 2005. So we'll see… but I think he'll be okay.

Just a tough putt. And maybe he tried to make it a little teeny bit.

Don't you think sometimes he's just a liiiiiitle too aggressive putting? 7 footers for par aren't fun for anyone....

I'm torn here. I like Patrick Reed, and Leishman and his wife are a nice story, but I want to see a donnybrook over the weekend. I'm not one to root against any golfer, but maybe they could come back to the pack a little? Please?

With Tiger at +4, this and the other Tiger threads are going to be awfully quiet tonight, Yet this leader board is full of really good players. If Reed keeps up the pace he's on, good for him, he'll get a Green jacket. That would be ok with me, I like him, and it would annoy the hell out of a lot of his haters. I just don't want a runaway. We've all been waiting months for this week. A blowout on Sunday would be a buzz kill.

Be interesting to see how it goes tomorrow. There are some very big names in the Top 10 with the talent to go super low.

Wasn't expecting Tiger to win this week, but I did think he'd be somewhere near the top-10. Doesn't seem to have his game this week. Too bad. Hopefully he can pull it together these last 6 holes to at least make the cut.

Still might you never know. He doesn't really have it. But a couple good rounds on the weekend would still equal a solid week. You never know.

Nice solid 36 holes for Patrick Reed. I loved his charisma at the Ryder Cup in 2016. He's one helluva ball striker. He's got talent. I've often heard he's a little superstitious, I think all of his golf balls have the same number on them. And he has exactly 6 tees in his right pocket, and won't replace them until he breaks them all.

Now I think anyone more than 6 behind is out. Tiger is basically going to have shoot probably 8-under just to finish top-10... Same with Phil. Someone will come out of the back of the field in the third round and move way up... It always happens. There are some really good players in the middle of the pack, that can go really low. We'll see what happens tomorrow.

Someone needs to write a piece on the people who are responsible for the online/social media video coverage this year.

Yeah, if you just quote the first sentence of the post. It was only meant to tease some people a little bit, but also kick start things a little. But it is turning out to be true though isn't it?

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Got told off yesterday for doing full swings and full speed swings so went to the range this lunchtime and did some slow speed stuff and freezers. A few videos from my session.    First few are DTL then some FO This one is of me looking at the club on the way back. I think I get my arms lifting all the way back, not that you’d know because YouTube keeps glitching on me.    Second one is two slow backswings. This glitches the first one but the glitch looks like a pretty good position so I’ll live. Second one works. Then another swing back and hit. When I’m not watching or really focusing on it it seems that my upper arm doesn’t lift at first, rather stays roughly where it is and I add the lift at the end so the club comes a bit more inside. I think that’s what I’m going to focus on. This one glitches a bit too but it’s really just pausing. This shows the club coming a bit more inside but not as laid off at the top Then a couple of face on ones And lastly one smoothie and one freezer at normal speed  Quite happy with how this went. I can see my arms are better when I take it slower. Also while I’m still pitching my arms out it doesn’t seem to be as extreme as yesterday. Light at the end of the tunnel 🙂
