    I know. I love watching Tiger, but this is ridiculous. They finally stopped showing him on the back 9 here.

    It's hard to see Rory losing this tournament. He's playing out of his mind right now.

    Lindsey had a list of weekend "honey do's" for tiger, anyway.

    He's gonna be able to get a lot more done at the crib, from here on out.

    38 yr old Tiger Woods missed 4th major cut as pro at PGA. Jack Nicklaus missed 4th cut in a major at...38 yrs old, also at PGA.

    Jack went on to win 4 more majors without altering his swing.

    Tiger can't walk, will change his swing to fit his new back. Win a tourney and change it again for shits and giggles and get hurt.

    Note: I have no idea if Jack changed his swing. I just get sick of Tiger coverage and his swing.

    i just found it interesting...if tiger lets it, his back will heal...hopefully he'll come to the realization that he can't swing like he once did, adjust and play better...at this point his main roadblock is his ego

    100% agree on that ego line. He really needs to see he's an "old man" and play that way. Adjust the game, shorten it up. Learn to hit an iron

    I always found it funny that a small group goes to a rock band forum to talk golf.

    Big putt by Rory.

    Well he's going to have plenty of time for the back to heal since he won't be playing in any tournaments for the next few months unless Watson names him to the Ryder Cup for some odd reason. Hopefully he gives it time to get 100% healthy and comes back strong.

    But yeah, his ego definitely gets in the way. He probably should have just sat out this whole year....or at least waited until now to come back rather than a few weeks ago.

    He said after his round yesterday that he felt old and that he is stubborn. Sounds like he agrees with everything being written here, which is probably a good thing. Padrig said he looked raw and like someone who just needs to play some golf. A lot of people also calling for him to can foley, but I don't see that.

    I bet we see him rest, practice and come back and play some early tournaments next year that we don't usually see him play.

    Who knows if he can get his form back, but keep in mind he was the best player in the world less than 12 months ago.

    Rory is awesome. Another good major for fowler. Kid is impressive

  • Cliffy6745Cliffy6745 Posts: 33,837
    2nd major in a row with 18 being a par 5. Was hoping it would come into play at Holyoke. Hopefully it does tomorrow down the stretch

    I can't see Rory falling back after 54 holes. He his dialed in. Someone has to post low to catch him. I need a Rickie 65 tomorrow.

    Of course that's overdone but dude gets ratings. A lot of people watching golf for him, so of course they are going to. At the third round of the us open at merion they had the leaderboard which always included his score. Golf wouldn't be where it is without him. Phil even says that, so sure it's overdone but I don't see how tiger being in the mix is a bad thing in any way

    It's not bad when he's actually in the mix. When the dude is five over at a major and they still show every shot, that is ridiculous. I'm not a Tiger hater, but it turns a lot of people off.
