Daly birdies the 1st hole to take sole possession of the lead.

Daly hanging in there. 

Tiger is not.  But as usual, every fart is broadcast.

He was grimacing on his last few shots like his back was going out again. I look for him to withdraw tomorrow if he starts out shitting the bed.

It drives me crazy that the same “experts” completely reverse course in a matter of about 12 hours.  The guy who “only shows up if he thinks he’s going to win” is suddenly described in the same realistic terms as some of us see him beforehand.  He’s a 47-year-old dude struggling   through lingering issues from at least a half dozen MAJOR surgeries to his mid-to-lower body, playing a sport that heavily depends on those body parts being in good working condition. 

It’s not an indictment on his character or grit or any superlatives that defined the vast majority of his career.  It’s just reality.  Age is and will always remain undefeated.

pagtour.com has 6 stories with videos at the top of the page.  3 of them are about Tiger.  They are already trying to make excuses.  One of the stories is about him having new irons and wedges in his bag.  He's currently tied for 117 in the tournament, but he's half of the stories at the top of their page.  I'm so ready for him to retire and never play again.

Our guy

[Thin Red Swine]

It’s funny and sad at the same time. 

He could’ve won half a dozen majors. 

And I’m not hating on him.  We all have our demons.

But a couple weeks before The Open the articles will start coming out about how great Eldrick feels and how the course sets up well for him, how he "knows how to play it". Then either the wind or rain or both with fuck him up and the excuses will start.

this - dude had won 2 majors at age 29 - a rare feat back then

1995 season -
Became youngest active player on TOUR with two major championship titles and fourth American at the time since World War II to win two majors before his 30th birthday, joining Jack Nicklaus, Tom Watson and Johnny Miller. <- pretty good company to be in right there.

Almost halfway through Round 2 and there will be certain exits for some big names...

Patrick Cantlay +11 - not sure what's going on with him, maybe an injury he's trying to play through

Daniel Berger +9 - head case issues; he contends regularly and wins occasionally but stinks in the majors

Corey Conners +8 - maybe doesn't fit the "big name" category but he's been on the rise and started to contend at the majors; probably the biggest surprise of these because he's so consistent

Dustin Johnson +8 - maybe he's back on the powder; maybe it's too much honeymoon pussy

Tiger Woods +4 - hasn't started yet today, but come on...



Both Scheffler and Morikawa are approaching the cut line, and the weather is supposed to keep getting better than it is right now.

I could do without the BS crew on the split screen. They never talk about the players that are playing in front of them.

  Scottie just doubled his last hole to go to +6.   That's currently tied for 105th place.   It's hard to imagine the cut going that high.  My guess is that it will be around +4.

Probably be wherever Tiwoo ends up.

Incredible round from JT today in that wind.  Surgical

[Thin Red Swine]

It's just amazing the way they fluff Tiger.

After banana slicing his first tee shot into the rough, Duval said it would be an amazing recovery to just get the second shot on the green.  He did, about 50 feet from the hole. 

What wasn't said was he used a sand wedge and that green is probably the largest on the course.

There are 16 posts on this page. Eight of them mention Tiger. It appears WooPig is obsessed with him also.

You clearly aren't watching. 


I will admit to being obsessed with hoping he shoots 80 every round because then I can at least enjoy the weekend coverage of players who are actually in contention.

Sage Steel got nailed by errant drive yesterday.   

https://www.outkick.com/sage-steele-hit-by-tee-shot-at-pga-championship/

Embattled ESPN anchor Sage Steele was taken to a Tulsa hospital on Thursday after she was hit by a tee shot while watching the PGA Championship as a media spectator.

On the third hole on Thursday, Jon Rahm’s tee shot hooked wide left and hit Steele at reportedly 181 MPH.

Golf writer Geoff Shackelford describes watching the incident unfold in real time:

“I was standing behind the tee when Rahm hit a hard hook into the left trees. He immediately yelled ‘Fore Left!’ and aggressively waved his arm pointing left. The impact must have been brutal: Rahm’s tee shot ended up in the center of the fairway.”

Brutal, indeed. Shackelford also relayed that Steele was “on the ground, holding her nose, mouth or chin area” with blood all over her hands.

10 out of 17. 

Edit: Nobody said there would be math.

I guess she WILL be silenced after all.

Will be interesting to see if Zalatoris can keep cooking.  He hit some great approach shots today.

Bubba Watson was wedging his way up too.

[Thin Red Swine]

Willy Z will go as far as his putter takes him.  So far that has been way better than at any other time in his career.  He’s made a setup adjustment just this week that is definitely working.

This may be the stat of the day…

“Shaun Norris is 40 years old. He has 538 Twitter followers. In his career he has made two cuts at majors. And both times he has been paired with Tiger Woods.”

Woods is +13 and they start the day off interviewing him. And, let’s show his every move….
