Do you guys think these young guns will wilt in Tigers presence? They are kind of molded in his image, fearless and such. He really created that "killer instinct" for most of these kids and wouldn't it be great TV to see them measure themselves against the man himself.

 

Yes cause he's their idol

[toddnt]

Cameron Champ is someone who swings at a legit 128+ with 190+ ball speed. There is no way in heck Tiger is swinging this fast.

Does it matter.. Its good golf and no one here is swinging that fast, sooo just enjoy it!

Cmon Tiger!

Let's see, a swearing, spitting guy on the course. Screwed prostitutes with the wife and babies at home.

 

I wish I had a nickel for every guy who was so outraged at Tiger, and then voted for Trump.

[Frankensteins Monster]

Love and adoration. At least that's how the golf announcers refer to Tiger.

 

Let's see, a swearing, spitting guy on the course. Screwed prostitutes with the wife and babies at home. About overdosed on pills before putting his car into action.

 

I guess if that's so deserving of love and adoration, I'd like to see the media's definition of anything else. Amazing. But, for the ratings.

 

You mad?

 

It’s interesting to see someone so mad at another person who’s actions had absolutely nothing to do with him, and had no effect on his life. And still, after all these years, still has venom towards that person. Tiger’s wife has moved on yet you can’t?

Not that it makes any actions legit

You could an enormous number of popular famous presidents, sports figures, doctors, soccer moms, teachers and religious figures. Right?

You sir get the award for post of the year, that was perfect. The hypocrisy is outrageous.

Yes, he logs onto his bank account and starts laughing uncontrollably.

 

The spasms last well into the afternoon ; )

 

[Colonel_Steelhead]

If he pulls this off, it removes all doubt in my mind who is the greatest of all time.

[jus711]

But no one said a word when they gave the stats and he wasn't first in the last two tournaments. It was one day. THE TRUTH IS OUT THERE!

 

By the way, and not directed at you, to anyone who has watched him over the years up close, they have no doubt that he is capable of ridiculous speeds if the back holds up. It's something to see and that's from someone who has also watched Hank Kuene on the range when there was no fairway to hit. Crazy! If people ever had the chance to watch Tiger in his prime on the range his legend status would be even larger and not just because of brute power.

 

Right, He was fastest 3/4 days at Honda and then again today, but somehow it’s only off when he records the fastest speeds. But I agree it’s splitting hairs, dude is moving it with the best of them which is astounding.

Nuts in here.

looks at your avatar and signature, blinks... you must have really agonized over that decision... ;)

amen!! I just have a feeling hes going to win by 3-4 tommorow...shame he isnt in final group...would be a beat down.... as is it leaves Rose at the advantage.. The kid will backup like Sharma did last week for sure. So will be Rose or Tiger..... Rose is just hard to pull for ...nice enough sounding guy ..But absolutely zero excitement to watch him play

[Valtiel]

If Tiger wins this week it is an incredible story, if Tiger wins a major again it's the greatest sports comeback/story of all time

 

5 months ago this guy was dead to competitive golf

 

5 months ago this guy had been dead to competitive golf for 3+ years! If his health holds up and he continues improving the way he has been, he'll end up hoisting a trophy again and it will have been a comeback that only Tiger Woods could pull off.

 

He still has a long way to go and more odds to beat before he recaptures any amount of dominance, but the fact he is back on the first page of leaderboard at this stage shows how good he is.

 

 

Ben Hogan on line one regarding comebacks...

 

Hah, fair enough.

[Hawkeye77]

Sneds getting no love.

[redfirebird08]

Sneds getting no love.

 

He had some incredible scrambling today. Rose and Snedeker are both crushing it in strokes gained putting so far this week. If they keep that going tomorrow, those two guys will be very tough for the others to beat.

Hes an elite ballstriker and a very down to earth nice guy. 5th OWGR. 8 pga tour wins and a US Open. perennial ryder cupper and on the cusp of a hall of fame career. Whats not to like? i know youre pulling for tiger but hes a great story as well. Dont agree with the beatdown comment.This is 2018, Ted Potter just ran away with it at pebble. Conners might struggle tomorrow but i have feeling he wont.Hes been on the big stage before.Decorated amateur career and despite the quirkyness in his swing he hits alot of greens. Adam Hadwin did that last year as well and made the odd putt and took it. My vote is on Rose as he found something out there late friday and today and was the steadiest playing the last 3 holes for 2 straight days which i believe is where it will come down to.

[lowheel]

Sneds getting no love.

 

If he drives it better he will steal this one.Hes uber confident in his short game right now

[CaymanS]

The most interesting stat of the day was that Spieth's missed cut means he now has more than Tiger has had his whole career! Another example of how dominant he was/may still be.

If Tigers putts start to drop like they should from 5-10 feet his sgp will be the best, but i hope he scores well on par 5s tomorrow

[lowheel]

How many of you have been to Innisbrook and seen the 1st at Copperhead? It is a benign looking hole that invites players to go long. And it will set the tone for the day. If Tiger is going to win tomorrow he needs to birdie that first hole. (You all know how there are some holes that just invite a great score - and this is one of them)

 

But, and I have said this in the thread a couple of times already - the weather tomorrow is going to be a factor. Cool and raining. Cannot help but wonder how Tiger's back and knees will perform under that kind of weather conditions. (I know I hurt more that's for sure)

 

I honestly believe if he gets off to a fast start with a bird on 1 and can remain loose he'll be hard to beat.

 

The first hole is not benign. Use driver and the left bunker comes into play. Use 3 wood and you’re looking at a very long second shot in a very angulated green surrounded by bunkers. It’s set up as an awesome risk reward tee shot. Wedging it in is no give me since the green is very slanted.

 

Read my reply again. Benign looking.

 

It can allow a great start or a disaster; an easy birdie if the player is careful but an easy bogey if not.

 

Youre correct. it sucks you in tempting you.I played it in january cold one year and made a quick double. Next time it was 3 wood off the tee without question. Plays way different in the summer though
