again, you fail to notice the exaggeration.

Maybe you need to exaggerate more, put it in ALL CAPS with lots of !!!!!! and some emoticons.

With the exception of a t-21 this past Master's Rory has finished in the top ten since 2014 so I guess you could say it is a magical place for Rory as well, but he has yet to win at Augusta? These numbers are data indeed, but Tiger is far from the athlete he was in the 2010-2011. Nothing wrong with it, it's just the unfortunate curse of time.

I am 40 years old. i don't have the patience for such nonsense.. haha. I thought the one leg and hooked hand would give it away... My mistake.

Probably just his back + age + limited practice. We have probably (being the keyword) seen the last Tiger victory of his career and it was a good one!

Tiger needs to play a full schedule every year, beat Jacks major record and rack up as many wins before retiring to a wheelchair in a few years because his back can no longer hold him up.

MER-MAN!

[Ronnie Mundt]

Tiger is a train wreck. The masters was pure joy to watch, but man, the rest of the season has been abysmal.

[tbowles411]

Yup, Tiger and Phil are completely out of gas.

When is The Match Part 2?

[MK7Golf21]

Tiger hasn't played any to be out of gas, lol. He's just protecting his back and is rustier than a bucket of nails left in the rain. Combine being rusty with that back and this is what you have

don't mean to take subject off Tiger, but great to see DJ finally put together a round!

YEs, and Rory had a good start as well.

Who?

 

You must be talking about some of those new kids. I don't recall seeing those names on the US Open leaderboard back in 2000.

Tiger and 1 other are the only 2 bogies all day. after all morning tees @ #1 & #10 and afternoon #10 groupings have past 12th hole.

Afternoon has been tricker downwind and crosswind 10-25mph.

Lots of Tiger injury talk on here, but did anyone listen to his comments before the US Open? It seems like he was content and shocked that he was able to win the Masters. It seems like his will to win is just gone. That is something I never thought I would have seen from Tiger Woods.

[3whacker]

with today's results, does TW eliminate TW from consideration as a Captains pick on the Presidents Cup.......I still think he will pick Phil and hope that PM returns the favor when he is chosen as the next Ryder Cup/Presidents Cup Captain

[CCTxGolf]

Will be fun to watch DJ have a good week if he can keep it together. Would love to see top form DJ v top form BK. That would be some incredible golf to watch. Prob be the most boring chit chat in that group ever though.

 

I’m hoping Rickie can do something big and make a run at the cup

I don’t think he could justify picking himself in this form. Would have to play himself into the top 8 which does not look possible.

[buckeyefl]

I haven't turned the TV on yet but based on what Tiger said this week and what I saw in the range this week, he really needs to just take the rest of the year off. As a matter of fact if it keeps up he may start thinking about the R word.

The field is strong because of the money on the line, not because it's such a great event that the best players in the world show up. The best players are the only ones allowed to show up.

Totally agree. The man came back and won twice including another major. I think that ended a chapter in his life from a personal accomplishment/competitive nature standpoint
