    12 was big and was definitely the turning point especially when you consider brooks also got wet. The 6 foot par putt was a huge shot on that hole too 

    I think the shot on 16 was when he won though. He did what he had to do on the two par 5s the he gets to 16 and hits it to kick in range and a 2 shot lead. That’s the biggest one to me. The drive on 17 was a monster and that’s a tough hole. A bad drive there brings everyone back in play.

    Definitely agree 12 was huge and turning point. 16 was the winner to me.

    I can’t wait to read and listen to every word on this this week

    Yeah man. It was awesome and of course.

    For sure. This is how I’ll put it. 12 was, I know more about this course and situation...I’m not losing this fucker here.  16 was, I know more about this course and situation...I’m winning this fucker here

    This has to be one of the best tournaments of all time.

    So the one reporter, shackleford I think, asked about his gum and made a wise ass remark. Apparently these guys are all over CBD oil and gum to keep them calm.

    I know I'm probably in the minority but that was dripping in cheesiness to me.

    That was funny. Tiger said it’s because he’s always hungry so he chews gum to take his mind off of hunger....riiiiight! 😂

    I’m watching the entire Tiger press conference. Some of these questions reporters ask are so dumb.

    He still hasn't proven he can win outside of the state of Georgia.  Until he does that I don't think he is back.

    He was so in Molinari and Finau's heads on 12 when he went straight to the green to line up his birdie putt as they drop after hitting in the hazard.

    I just finished Posnaski’s piece about 12. Beautifully written and so true. 

    He won it on 12. Everything changed the moment Frankie rolled into the water and Tiger hit the correct safe shot.

    That's why it's called Amen Corner.  A lot of the times the tournament is either won or lost on that stretch of holes.

    I don’t Know. There were so many big shots after. Hell, last time he won the masters he went bogey bogey to lose a two shot lead with two to go
