True. And as the stigma of Phil blowing Majors on the last nine holes continues to grow, so too does the predictablitiy of Tiger Wood's game.
Hes either all or nothing which is why he is such a great frontrunner.

Reminds me of that damn horse who won yesterday's 8th at Belmont- Greenspirit. Give the horse an easy lead and hes damn near 100% sure to win. Tiger is to golf as what Greenspirit is to horse racing.
