  • I think it’s safe to say this... we all took for granted Tigers last major in 2008, thinking will see - handful more at least. Then when it didn’t happen we started to wonder if we saw the last. I know I won’t take for granted seeing him win this time.

  • My son is 6. Never really watched golf before this year. Tiger is 43. And of course (even before this week) he gravitated towards Tiger. Of all the guys half Tigers age,  he likes a 43 year old lol.  Tiger just has that swag I guess.

    He doesn’t necessarily need to be. Never need to at Augusta. Hell, you can win there and be an absolute shit putter (see: Bubba, Scott, Sergio, etc)

     

    Sure... but to win 4 more majors he’s going to need to be a great putter. I think I remember seeing a stat in 3 years (back when he won 4 majors in a row) he only missed 3 putts 3ft and in. Made like 1500 putts in that frame. That’s absolutely insane.

    He is still the best iron player in the world. If he can drive it well, his irons give him enough looks he doesn’t need to be a great putter (basically the opposite of someone like Rickie). He will make enough.

    I say he ties.

    That’s the problem though ... when he was winning majors left and right he WAS the best putter in the world. He doesn’t make them like he used to.

    And he damn near won the Open last year. 

    The only one I don’t seen him winning is the US Open. But it sets up well this year at Pebble. 

    I don’t think you’re wrong. I guess I pretty much agree. My biggest knock on him is I don’t see him staying healthy enough.

    I will say i haven’t seen him play like this in a long time. I was expecting him to fuck up some drives at the end and he never did. He can’t be wild off the tee anymore and blast it out of the rough and save par. If he can keep the driver straight and avoid injury you never know. It’s impossible to predict health and even with these guys it’s hard to find fairways for a whole weekend. I get it’s Tiger Woods. But I also get all the adversity he’s facing now that he wasn’t 20 years ago. Time is not on his side and winning 4 more majors just seems highly unlikely.

    He damn near won the PGA last year. But ok. 

    Ya you’re right. The way the Opens are set up I don’t see him winning. He could win a PGA.

     

    For everyone who’s all in on him now... Keep in mind he’s a 43 year old with a bad back. It’s not getting better.

  • I see him winning 1 more Masters. I don’t think he can win the US Open or PGA anymore. Maybe 1 more British but I doubt it. Augusta suits his eye. He usually plays well there.

    $5k would be my current break point. I'd pay that, on my current salary, but no more. I'd go higher if I were to get promoted and/or higher salary throughout my career.

     

    Damn lol. $5k is a ton of money to me. I’d say $1k and that would still hurt.

    Aren’t they really strict about putting your tickets online? Heard if you win masters tickets and they find your tickets online they ban you from ever coming back 

    I had always heard that too but sure enough they were on stubhub.

    More importantly, I’ll be there Saturday. Can’t fucking wait.

    You bastard. I looked for the hell of it on stub hub and weekend tickets for going for $11K a piece.

    We're under a week until my trip. I'm not sure it's a coincidence that Ben Hogan just released an update to the PTx irons. I'm not 100% sure, but me and the other guy going think we'll be coming home with a set of PTx Pro's.

    Good looking iron, but doesn’t look like they’d be the easiest iron in the world to hit.

    Scratch golfers are breaking 100 there. Easily. It’s obviously a tough course but they’re not shooting 30 strokes worse than a normal course.  

    Probably. I just can’t imagine it cuz I suck.

    Oh, man, wasn't that a name? :-)

    I remember back on JJ when you couldn't type Ben Gay's last name. It was banned!  Ha ha!

    I've had a lot of 1-putts and zero 4-putts so far this year. I can't imagine I'd escape with fewer than 60 putts, and that's probably being generous.

    If you’re a good putter who can read a green I think you could do ok. Just given the fact that those green are perfect and roll true. Now... what percentage of weekend golfers fit that bill? Less than 1% I’d say. If you’re a scratch golfer who can read a green I think you could break 100 there.

    What do you think you would shoot at Augusta from the same tees these guys are playing? I'm guessing I'd be lucky to break 140.

    I would say your average "good" golfer who shoots low to mid 70's at their local course would do really well to break 100.

    How much of this outbreak, along with other potential health crisis, are due to the ‘open’ border?

     

    Does the 'open' border keep Americans from vaccinating kids? 

    Then none.
