Very good par for Tiger, after missing the fairway by 50 yards or so. Actually was fortunate he missed by so much he ended u with a pretty decent lie etc

If Tiger gets through these 3 holes at even par, he's just fine. 4-6 are brutal fucking golf holes, and getting through them clean, no matter how it looks, is all you can hope for.

They said he had to hit the same shot he hit on 17 yesterday, but the ball he hit on 17 yesterday went like 250 yards. #6 is only playing 223 or something. I'm not sure why he though he needed 4 iron there.

Yep, just checked, the 4 iron he hit yesterday went 241 yards. If #6 is playing 223 yards, then he hit the same shot he did yesterday. Was just too much club.

Should be an easy pitch and putt for par from there for Tiger, which is fine. He needs to find the fairway on the par 5 7th, and at least make birdie to turn this around. I think if he gets within 1 shot, he's going to turn it on. Feels like he's pressing right now, and he really doesn't need to be.

Seeing Koepka and Scott both hit 5 iron on #6, I'm still shaking my head on why Tiger thought he needed 4 iron. That was too much club by about 20 yards.

Plus site on that tee shot by Tiger, It ran through the trampled area, and made it to the other side of the trees, so he should be in decent shape

yup, if these guys miss the fairway by 5 feet they are screwed, but if they miss by 50 feet they usually find decent, trampled down lies.
