After seeing that putt and the first putt on #2, I don't see Tiger making the cut.

His short game is a disaster right now and has been the entire year. Looks like a 10 handicap on pretty routine short shots around the greens.

Rory with ANOTHER laser to 10 feet!
[/quote]

It looks even closer than that. Maybe 5-6 feet. Hope he can shoot a good one today but most importantly shoot a halfway decent one tomorrow. Get rid of that Friday curse!

Gonna have to wait til 2015 Masters. Fed Ex Cup playoffs are a near impossibility if he finishes outside top 25 here.

Rory completely blocks the short birdie.

Maybe it's that ugly outfit he's wearing? I hope he gets a flat tire today when leaving the grounds. And a paper cut.

[rafer11]

Tweety Bird's looking good this time around.

[imakaveli]

Fowler with the Claret Jug would be legendary! Rooting for the kid!

[CMBaviator_FR]

I'd rather prefer an european to win, should an american win, must be tiger then

[rafer11]

Tiger's been nice on the 6-12 footers.

[fowlerscousin]

Tiger birdied, hes Back!

[imakaveli]

What an awesome tournament

[CMBaviator_FR]

Did the gallery scream a lot when he holed the birdie putt ?

[Frostfield]

Tiger needs to reduce his head drop to 6" from 10" if he wants to quit blocking everything.

Don't why he moves his head that much, My head barely drops and i have a quite hight swing speed with irons, Besides he's also very athletic, I don't understand why ??

I can see a 7 or possibly 8 under finishing the day, the conditions are great for scoring, we need some wind and rain to make it interesting.

[mookie]

Kinda stupid question, but all of these Open courses have pot bunkers...is this just part of that links style? I don't think I ever see bunkers like this in any tournament in the states.

Agree only wind, rain will also make it a bit easier because the ball will hold quite easily on the greens

there was someone whooping, hollering and whistling.

Love John Singleton's reaction to his name being announced. Great drive after looking very nervous. Can't blame him!

[Frostfield]

Singleton is a boss!

Yes, it harks back to the days when bunkers were meant to be a shot penalty, not a bail out area. Originally, there were no rakes or sand irons either. Given that there is not much water on the average links course, that was how they protected fairways and greens.

that was great to see....and piped it down the middle with a slight fist in the air as if to say "i did it!"

living an absolute dream

[brtnsbs]

Watching Tiger lay back with irons all day is infuriating to say the least. Play aggressive every once and a while man, not defensive. He's the first one playing into every green.

[redfirebird08]

Yikes, mess for Jordan at the 5th.
