If "going for it all the time" is what you want, Phil should be your favorite!

I mean, this is sick. As if yesterday wasn't enough, he's got to go out and double them up. Sheesh.

Just think how good he'd be if he didn't have to overcome all that lousy equipment. [img]/forums/images/icons/laugh.gif[/img] Phold's comments looking dumber by the minute.

I loved his comment about how he was decided against going to the hospital last night because he was worried that they wouldn't let him check out to finish the tournament.

Jordanesque with his "drop the hammer while violently ill" routine today.

Kid had earled (pun not intended) three times in the first five holes and he still increased his lead by six shots.

Grand Slam's in the bag, barring the usual unforseen circumstances. Good to see Vijay & Ty Tryon show a little sack, but honestly, what a bunch of paycheck cashing clowns on Tour. This win showed his dominance even more so than Pebble Beach. Wait'll he drops a 57 on they asses...

"Grand Slam's in the bag"

You can get 33-1 on that. Sounds juicy to me.

Personally I am going to lay 4/13 that he wins one major. The line is about 50% higher than it should be.

Yep, hard to bet against Tiger winning 1 of 4.

As silly as it sounds, I think Tiger may be too good to shoot a 57 or 59 in a competitive round. He just doesn't shoot at enough flags. Yesterday is a perfect example of what I mean. When he's playing from in front, which he usually is, he's more than happy to play to the middle of greens and eliminate bogeys.

It would be interesting to see what would happen if he went out and fired at every single flag for a couple of rounds. It sure would be fun to see him play a tournament where the winner is the guy who makes the most birdies.

He hates Phoenix because of the crowds. The armed drunk crowds. Sony is a 2nd tier event. Wait'll he plays Kapalua next year, tho.

Excellent analysis. He'll get the 57 via 5 or 6 30 footers & a coupla eagle holeout chips. 14 of 14 fairways, 18 GIR's.

He also hates Vegas & the Hope 'cause of the 5 round-pro am crap. He'd prolly shoot 40 under at the Hope for the week.
