-1 yesterday (71), and today, 10-under through 16! Wowee! He could almost shoot 59. He won't, but he almost could. Turning the front in 31 probably took that away along with three pars to start the back. But a 61 is a real possibility here, and he'd be paired with Singh I think.

Eagle eagle on 13 and 14, but then he just parred the 16th (580, par 5). Okay, so maybe a 62 is all that's in the cards today. Sorry, he birdied 16. So now he's -11 for the day and -12 overall. He parred 17.

He is the best golfer in the world. What do you expect?!?

I'm used to seeing these performances from Mr. Woods.

Seriously though, this is what the fans wanted, so that is great. Singh vs. Woods should be fun this weekend. I would personally like for DiMarco to catch them both and whip em. But that probably won't happen.

DiMarco's at -9 so he's not out of it.

Just looking at some stats: Rnd 1 Tiger hits 71% of the fairways but only 61% GIR and shoots 71. Rnd 2 he hits only 50% of the fairways and has 89% GIR in route to a 61. All that practice playing out of the rough for the past 2 years is coming in handy .

    • The first issue Erik spoke about is something we worked on for my swing during both GEARS sessions. GEARS was showing my pelvis center moving towards the ball during the back swing. I wasn’t the 4” guy though! This forced me to correct on the downswing to give myself space. My hip rotation was to high as well. We corrected it by first getting the weight off my heels in my stance and getting my posture correct. Then the feel was shifting back into my right hip at a 45 degree angle. This kept my pelvis center from moving towards the ball at the start of the backswing. I also didn’t sway back as much as I felt I did because of the angle I was shifting. Feel Ain’t Real. The cool thing about GEARS is as you work on something you can see the exact (Real) change happening. On video, it is much harder to spot this issue because of the 2D nature of filming. But I know what to look for now. Sadly, I was hurt all last year and most of this year so I really haven’t been able to work on it much. I did do a lot of backswing work though.
