Tiger's in the hunt, in second place, and only two strokes behind the leader.

Only a few holes left...

...anyone else watching? :excited:

Golf doesn't get much better than Tiger's charge on the final day of a major!! :cool:

HOLY CARP!!!
I used to watch golf (it was forced on me) and though I initially liked "Tigger", I got sick of him REALLY fast. I think that happened when we'd be watching a tournament and they would show the leader and him more or less exclusively. "And here's Tiger's second shot on 16. He's at one under and sitting in 32nd place." (show unremarkable second shot) "That landed right where he wanted it Phil." "Now let's go over to the leader - we just missed a fantastic shot out of the trap for Eagle, but we'll get to that after this word from our sponser" (cut to whatever product Tigger is shilling)...

I Owe It All To John D'Oh
I'm watching, in between helping the kids with their math homework. Tiger just gave it away the last two holes.

Yeah Campbell has to basically hand Tiger the trophy now...congrats to him.

I took up golf in the spring of 1997, literally the friday of the Masters. My uncle came up and mentioned something about how "this Tiger Woods" guy might win it. (This was Tiger's breakthrough performance, btw)

So I can honestly say I'm not one of the "tiger" teenagers who took up golf because of him. Either way, I really like Tiger...but we'll see how this one ends up.......

I used to golf, years ago (when I was about 12). I wasn't half bad either - played one season, and my best game was about 8 over par on 9. Not bad for having maybe 10 rounds under my belt (and being a 12 year old girl). But my dad shouldn't teach ANY family member any skill. After hearing him nitpick my swing one too many times, I threw my nine iron at him (well, in his general direction) walked off the course, and never went back.
