I can't remember seeing Tiger hit so many double-crosses with his irons than I did in the last 2 days. Kinda sh*tty of him to not at least give a few words to CBS when he was done.

Kind of shitty, but not the end of the world. Post event interviews in golf (as well as most other sports) are pretty lame.

Just read Sean O'Hair went out first, by himself, and finished in 2 hours and 13 minutes. He was told to slow down, as he was catching up to the greens crew.

I played yesterday in a little over 3 hours... would not have taken that long if I hadn't taken so many shots

I remember 4-5 years ago Daly went out first on a Sunday in Memphis.
I forgot the other pro he was playing with...but they played in under 2 hours and were fined by the pga tour.

Not the end of the world at all and I'm still a huge fan of tiger, but he still needs to take care of things like that.

I love Tiger but lets face it, hes a very bad loser. When he does talk to the press after a defeat, the onus is always on him, not how well the other guy played. Its always how badly he putted and he didnt have his A game. He said something nice about Padraig's wonderful sand shot from Saturday but it was like he was placating him. When Tiger does compliment his fellow players it doesnt feel genuine.

Because he is so loved by the tour and by the networks, he gets a free pass when it comes to dropping F bombs and throwing clubs. Anyone else would be criticized and possibly suspended. Kind of reminds me of how "certain trainers" get a free pass when it comes to getting hot and winning races in bunches, while the same kinds of streaks by other "less liked trainers" immediately get received as they are cheating. I guess thats the societty we live in. People are judeged according to how they are perceived and liked by the public. Some get to live and play by a different set of rules.
