    Shot my best round since I was in high school this weekend. Not impressive for most, but I broke 90 for the first time since I can remember, including 6 pars.

    Nice good job

    Have you played Latrobe? Home course of "The King".
    I might make a pilgrimage there this summer.


    Nice avatar by the way.

    Thanks and you as well.

    I have not played Latrobe, but the last couple of years we have done a baseball weekend in Pittsburgh, Philly priced us out, and have talked about heading west a day earlier to golf. Latrobe area has been mentioned, unless someone lets a bunch of knuckleheads on Oakmont.

    Saturdays round went great. Par / Birdie start :D

    Bird on 7 and 18 as well, yeah a few doubles as well. Completely fell apart last year, high numbers all over and I knew it was my grip. Got real weak with my right hand and just wasn't hitting the ball, but couldn't fix it. A few weeks off of golf and a mental reset, a stronger grip and back to normal.

    Now we wait till March.

    hey, it's been a pretty bizarre day in sports, so here's the cherry on top :shock: :lol::lol:
    Tiger Woods is a single man these days, but he may not still be over his ex-wife Elin Nordegren.

    According to the National Enquirer, Woods wants to remarry Nordegren and he's offering a huge chunk of change to get her back. The magazine also reports that Tiger even proposed to her over Christmas, getting down on one knee and presenting Nordegren with a ring.

    Nordegren is reportedly considering the proposal from Woods, who is desperate to get Nordegren back, but wants a $350 million anti-cheating clause added to the contract.

    Woods' proposed deal reportedly is worth over half of his estimated $600 million fortune.

    "Tiger didn't even balk at the demand. Even though his accountants think he's crazy, he's ready to sign the pre-nup and set a wedding date," a source told the magazine.

    "The guy has never recovered from being dumped by Elin. He's dated lots of models and bimbos, but none of them were more than a one night stand."

    The Enquirer reports that Woods and Nordegren have even begun having a sexual relationship again.

    "Tiger stopped by Elin's rental house one afternoon when their kids were out with a nanny and they had sex for the first time since the split," a source reportedly told the Enquirer.

    Woods and Nordegren met in 2001 after being introduced by Swedish golfer Jesper Parnevik, for whom Elin was a nanny. The couple became engaged in November 2003 and married more than a year later in October 2004.

    Woods and Nordegren have two children, but the marriage went awry after Nordegren discovered Woods had been cheating on her with multiple women. After learning of such news at Thanksgiving in Nov. 2009, she allegedly attacked Woods, who crashed his car into a tree.

    Since the divorce, Nordegren has dated billionaire Jamie Dingman and reportedly NHL player Douglas Murray.

    Woods and Nordegren have been living apart since 2010 as Nordegren works to rebuild her mansion in Palm Beach, Fla.

    Maybe he, you know, actually likes her and wants to raise his kids in a normal household. Bizarre, I know.

    Got a little nervous at the beginning of the 4th round when Tiger was all over the plave on 1 and 2 and Snedeker was charging. 11 holes to go with a 6 stroke lead is as comfortable as it gets though. Hopefully it will be a big win to start the season.

    was he wearing red?

    With a black sweater on top.

    Struggled down the stretch a bit there, but admitted at getting really frustrated with the pace after the round. I think it was around 6 hours in total between yesterday and today. Brutal. Those are the days I end up playing about 13, he couldn't exactly do that.

    Yeah, what was with the slow pace out there? I had it on in the background while I was working at home today and they were just crawling out there. Ridiculous for that to happen on the PGA Tour.

    87 players had to play a full 36. They had originally planned to cut it down after Saturday with so many players making the cut but couldn't since they were playing straight through yesterday.

    Ha my course has a escape on 13, comes in handy when the men's club has a tournament and those bozos think its a tour event. :fp:
