Well, that frees up my Sunday.

Yeah...such a shame. I know it’s a great accomplishment for the kid... but come on....just turned Sunday into a snoozer.

I'm glad he missed it.  He's just getting over a neck problem.  If he had to play who knows how many extra holes today, plus maybe another 36 tomorrow, he could easily have torpedoed his chances in the Masters.  This way, he had a very positive week, a T5 in a strong field, and he can take tomorrow off and then prep for Augusta.

Until April....

Eh, it lasted about 5 minutes....

That bomb for eagle and then the cold blooded birdie on 17 after Tiger had stuffed it were just too tough.

Kind of felt the same. And there’s no “maybe 36 tomorrow.” If he would have won, he would have to play 36 tomorrow. There’s a consolation match for 3rd and 4th.

He's dead to me.

You don't believe that....I don't believe you mean that.    What until the Masters!

 

then again, he could be like the Detroit Lions.... even before the season starts their fans say "Wait until next year!"

You don't play 36 if you win or lose 5&4 or something.

Tiger missed a few short putts in the afternoon.  Not a good sign going into Masters...

I don’t know. He played a lot of close golf today that is no doubt mentally draining. I can see a few misses coming from a day like today. I was wondering on some of the misses as well though. Especially that last one.

He used to never miss putts like that. It’s like you can see that slight bit of doubt that never showed from 97-08.

But, giving due credit, the kid (can’t spell his name) was a rock.

A myth. He missed his fair share of putts like that.

Tiger played well. That last putt isn’t any indication of how he’s putting. He otherwise performed pretty damn well. Beer Garden poured in that 30’ for eagle so he had his share of luck as well.

He putted pretty well overall. Made a lot of big ones. The 52yard pitch into the bunker is what really hurt him. The announcers cursed him as well!! lol. Hats off to the other guy. Draining that eagle on 16 and the birdie on 17 was tough as a TW fan

He may have intentionally tugged that last putt. LaCava prolly whispered in his ear “Make this, Boss, and we play at least one more hole and maybe 36 more tomorrow.” Tiger may have gotten a stinger down his neck that very moment.

All jokes aside, while I know he wanted to win, I think he won’t mind a day of rest. He got a T5 which should move him up the WGR a spot, maybe two.
