Don't know who is into this but after the birdie in the 18th yesterday to force a playoff, I had to see how it went. Again, down by 1 stroke in the final hole of the playoffs, sinks a birdie AGAIN, to force it into sudden death and win the US Open on the first hole of the match. Just UNBELIEVEABLE!!!

He's frikkin awesome. I was following it on espn.com

 

Congrats, Tiger! I saw that 18th hole yesterday.

 

Someone said something clever today at work

"What do you have to shoot to win the US Open?"

Tiger Woods

 

I believe I just read somewhere, that this is the first time in the Open where they shot under par(correct me if I'm wrong). Woods and Mediate being -1 for the Open, not counting the playoffs and sudden death. Didn't realize the courses they choose for the Open are that tough.

 

^ i have been known to throw my putter half way down teh fairway after missing puts for par and bogey for a few worthless skins.

tiger is awesome. he is a legend in the making. you would also be throwing your clubs around if you missed putts for eagles and birdies by literally 2 inches during a Majors tourney. shooting 30 on the back nine at torrey pines is godlike!!!! draining 12 footers on the 18th hole for birdies to send yourself into OT takes nerves of steel.

tiger is a true champion, playing on a bad knee. it would not have even been close if tiger was 100% healthy. he owns torrey pines. if you have ever seen tiger practice his shortgame live, you would acknowledge how great he really is. i got to see him during chipping practice once, and it was incredible how easy he makes golf look. all his shots were within 3 feet of the hole

 

I saw the game during lunch today. That boy more buffed than I remember.
I guess I haven't watched golf in a while.

Benny, why did you delete your post. I had a reply for you. It doesn't make sense for me to post it now since you deleted though.

 

Well in my old age I am trying my best to get along. And I have learned that to not be a fan of Tiger is almost considered sacriligeous by the non golfers.
