Maybe the club is too short?

It's Golf. Some days you wake up and it all falls together. Other days....you wish you'd stayed put.

How is this round indicative of that?

Why? What do you have against JB?

[bscinstnct]

Sergio redemption time!

No more so than Rory. Meaning you can’t judge anything by 1 round. Or even 20.

He's been ranked in the top 50 since 1993 and he's 49 years old. Washed up sounds a little harsh but it's mostly accurate. That said he's such a talent that he has still won tournaments in consecutive seasons and probably will be again. We've just been incredibly lucky he's been able to maintain a high level for as long as he has.

I agree but since AT&T Phil has been awful. Regardless I wouldn't describe it as washed up.

Yeah, I don't know what people expect from Phil....you guys know how old the eldest major winner of all time was? 48

Seems like yesterday, April 15 no less that everyone was saying Jacks record could be surpassed in the next 2 years. Everyone was salivating to get a set of the Tiger designed irons. Fast forward to today and it appears the 2019 Masters may be equivalent to Jacks 1986 Masters. Kind of the last hurrah. Although Jack did contend in a couple more majors he never won again on the PGA. Tiger today in his post round interview gave a hint the back isn’t doing great saying with all the procedures he has had there are many shots he can no longer hit. First time he has confirmed what has been obvious since April.. now you wonder if he will tie Snead let alone Nicklaus. Hope his body tells him when to stop so he doesn’t need another procedure on his back..

 

Looks like there won’t be any CBD gum sponsorship. Today he would have had to overdose on pills, drops, lotion, and gum

I love this tournament!! The course looks incredible. I see Phil smoked Tiger by 2 shots. :)

No thank you.

Rory needs to learn to hit a fade........

[TreyWingbat]

If Tiger misses the cut, will they still play the rest of the tournament on the weekend?

There will be a discussion. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Somehow they'll go on. :wink:

 

[Darth Putter]

Ha!

Rahm, Kuchar and Cantlay all in the same group? And they all played well? This forum must have had a meltdown.

 

At least the Tiger backers that had him beating Rory today cashed winning tickets.

Cause it’s a thread about the unfortunately last Major of the season.

Just need one day of bad weather Fri or Sat and that'll take care of him... or conversely he takes so effing long he finally gets penalised.

They most definitely will. Just won’t be as fun minus him and Phil.

Tiger vs. Rory in The Match II, Sunday on BBC and CBS.

We will act like it never happened.

The British Open: Glory's Last Shot

[BearQ]

11 countries represented in the top 20

20 in the top 40.

 

The Open

Yes, but no one will be there to see it. And Brooks will hoist the claret jug to an audience of naught but sound of the sea...and the cries of the gulls.

You misspelled fairway. JK. That quad did a number on his head. He'll play better tomorrow, but I think his weekend's free. Hope tomorrow's round is as eventful as today's.
