I agree 100%. I love golf.Tremendous week. That was a lot of fun.
I was just coming to post this. He clearly had difficulty with some of the reads and pace. When he’s playing greens he’s comfortable with, more putts will dropThat was on a course Tiger hasn’t played in competition on like 20 years or something. Let’s see what he does next week at a track he’s won a million times at already.
That’s wasn’t his issue today. His issue was his approach shots weren’t landing close to the hole, causing the long putts.I was just coming to post this. He clearly had difficulty with some of the reads and pace. When he’s playing greens he’s comfortable with, more putts will drop
Interesting. They must have been laying the groundwork for this well before it looked like Tiger might ever be playing at a level to be on another cup team. Playing captain in a team event will be a fun throwback, and no I'm not getting ahead of myself.Tiger Woods and Ernie Els will duel in the Presidents Cup again, this time as captains.
Two people involved in the Presidents Cup tell The Associated Press that Woods and Els have agreed to be captains for the 2019 matches in Melbourne. They spoke on condition of anonymity because it has not been announced.
Eyeball test: he doesn’t look like Tiger Woods but he sure looks like a top tier tour pro.Tiger has enough rounds to qualify for the stats the PGA tour keeps...
Driving distance- 303.4, T42
SG tee-to-green- 28th
SG around the geeen- 21st
SG putting- 23rd
Total SG: 11th
Up to 43d in the FedEx Cup, 149th in OWGR. He was in the 600’s after the Hero.
Pretty crazy how good he’s been given all the time off and everything he’s gone through health wise the past few years.
They made this official today. Tiger said he asked if it was possible to be a playing captain before signing on. Long way off, but he said he he hopes he can qualify so that he wouldn’t be in a position where he would have to pick himself.https://apnews.com/001391abf57a438593f5a7de29dc247b/AP-sources:-Woods,-Els-to-captain-Australia-Presidents-Cup

Thanks for that. I really just need to pony up the $5.99 a month as I spend that on much worse things every month.Very early in this tournament, but it's insane to me to see him put together the results last week and then keep it going straight into this tournament. I think Tiger definitely is likely to win a tourney this year, but I expected more yoyoing with high results and then some missed cuts.

This is a lot of fun. Such a different electricity to have Tiger back in contention on the tour.Tiger!!!
71 footer for birdie.
I don’t have the article where I read this handy, but I believe the ratings for last Saturday and Sunday were the highest non-Masters ratings on Tour since 2015.How great is it to have Tiger back!
If he can keep this up through Sunday, it'll be fun to see how Tiger vs. March Madness plays out in the ratings.
I read the same thing. Also, the ratings were about 25-30% higher than the Sunday majors last year, excepting The Masters. It was a colossal number. I couldn't find what the Valspar did last year, but I would have to guess the ratings were tripled.I don’t have the article where I read this handy, but I believe the ratings for last Saturday and Sunday were the highest non-Masters ratings on Tour since 2015.
What was his DraftKings price for this week, I wonder?Smylie Kaufman is so bad at golf right now. 12 straight rounds of over par golf, going on 13 given he's +5 after 3 today. He's finished last in 3 of his last 5 tournaments and is currently "leading" that race again for the Arnold Palmer.
