I disagree that this tournament is "over". Check out that leaderboard. Goosen and Els are both within close range of Tiger. The way people are talking, he has a 5 shot lead over his nearest competitor David Duval!

Sure he has to be the strong favorite to win this but this isnt over. Should be a great weekend in sports.

Tiger opens up a three length lead ... with a half in :43.3 ... and he's going along easily ...

... can he be caught?

Hes kind of like Unfurl the Flag was when he was good for those 2 races at Hollywood last year.

The other horses will be pounding thier whips and Tiger will be hand ridden, no urging. Like I said in my post earlier, Goose, Els and maybe DiMarco make it a little interesting. I would love to see the BIG Easy on Sunday paired w/ Tiger.

Well, Els looks pretty good,but he is pretty much Tiger's btch.Tiger beat him in a playoff in Dubai this year.Seems like Tiger just let Els hit it in the water,or choke it some other way.Don't think Tiger had to do anything other than hit a fairway,and a green.If I was gunna pick 2 to try to beat Tiger,it would be Dimarco,and Goosen.I ain't betting against him though.

The Big Easy fired a 65 as well, 1 back of the winner.

Someone needs to slap Sergio. Hes a whining baby and exactly the reason golf has long had a sterotype for being a game for spoiled rotten rich snobs.

W/O a doubt. This little brat crys about everything. How often do you see Tiger play in the mornings? Not too often. This kid is the anti-tiger. Instead of sucking it up and saying he needs to play better, he crys about course conditions and who got to play at what time.

Correct....he just needs to face the fact he is a mental case and he is a below average putter out there...

LOL...reminds me of when the US Open was at Bethpage and he had to play in some rain. He commented after that round that if Tiger had been on the golf course that the USGA would have called a rain delay.

weather don't mean sh.t to s2s' golf game. Sun, wind, sleet, freezing rain, it don't matter. I'm gonna shoot 92-94. I am gonna swing as hard as I can. I am gonna lose 3-4 balls. I am gonna hit at least one drive 275. I am gonna 3-putt from 8 feet more than once. I am only gonna use 5 clubs; driver, 4-iron, 8-iron, wedge and putter. On any given day, it's 4/5 I'm gonna hit a house.

I'll take Els no doubt over Tiger. Hes flat out played tons better than Tiger has over the first two days. Tigers made a lot of very long putts but I really can't see him continuing to can those long ones like that. Els is only one stroke back and I think its his tournament.

Well GD I want some a that too!!! That's a good point. Technically he has played as good or better, w/ tiger bomb from 200 and a few long putts. Nobody, and I mean NOBODY can close a major like Tiger, if they are close on Sunday and are paired together, how do you think the Big Easy will fair? Not knocking him, b/c I went to PGA 96 practice round and followed Els for a few holes and man I'll tell ya, he has the sweetest swing I've ever witnessed. For a big guy he is so fluid. Nice guy too, was real friendly w/ the fans. Him and Frank Noblo got into a water fight on 18 and it was too funny. Of course it was about 900 degrees that day.

Default tiger - oracle

again oracle be careful of tiger here - although not a lock , the 4 par 5's give him a big advantage - he eats them up - almost all of his majors are on par 72
courses

look at his record on par 70's in major's - he is 1 for something very big


when he sees those par 5's he feasts and mentally he is able to play better- but when you but him on a tree lined par 70 us open course ala winged foot , congressional , southern hills, and the olympic club - all of a sudden he just doesn't dominate - those courses require much more shaping of the driver over 4 rounds than any british open or master does
