    2 yards is generally deemed sufficiently close. Right on the edge ... But acceptable.

    uhhh ... if that was the case - he wouldn't have gotten a penalty ... :lol::lol:

    Ah the penalty makes it all make sense ?

    Sure it does .... If he committed that offense he shouldn't be out there

    I read the relaxation argument and didnt buy it

    i cant see tiger winning. And again, on this board and elsewhere, people jumped the gun. Tiger would agree, winning tournaments means nothing. Its the majors that count. If he ends up winning a ton more events during this year and does this in the 3 other majors, no one would consider that a good or quality season, least of all Tiger himself. As he said himself, Winning erases everything, all doubt. And he cant win a major. hasnt for years. Remains to be seen if he ever will again.

    And lets face it, the majors are what has driven him since day 1. It wasnt getting the most PGA tour victories that made him spend all day and night practicing puts. And we all know that. He didnt have 72 tour victories taped on his wall as a kid.

    As Ive said since the scandal, something changed in tiger that day. It not only ruined his marriage, but it changed his perspective on life, and evidently took a huge toll on him mentally and his ability to win majors.

    He flat out cant win a major.

    Like clock work, you show up. As always you show your incredible sports knowledge. Why aren't we hearing stories about his personal life?

    I do find it funny that you show up saying he's never going to win a major after he takes an 8 on a hole. Congrats, good call, genius.

    Do us all a favor and go away

    As much as anyone dislikes the guy

    He brings 'it' to golf. Love watching him and rooting for a grandstand finish tomorrow

    His luck on 15th yesterday was terribly bad, but he's in the hunt

    I don't dislike him and haven't stopped cheering for him even when all the shit on started to go down. I'm pulling for him today and hope he can mount a monster Comeback today which we all know he can. Should be a great finish today and hope Tiger gets his 5th Greeen Jacket :)

    Thing is, he clearly didn't realize he violated the rules. He should have known, but somehow didn't in the situation

    Of course HE would say that :lol::lol::lol:.

    If it wasn't for the unlucky pin bounce, Tiger would most likely be tied for the lead right now.

    I think I would end up shooting around a 170 at Augusta ... and that's with some gimmies and foot wedges included ...
