108th US Open at Torrey Pines

[70Chip]

Woods' performance Saturday night is just silly. I think he puts MJ to shame when it comes to the sheer balls of his excellence. Club members that make those shots spend the rest of their lives telling you about it, and he has three in one round. If he had sold his soul for those shots he woud still have the better end of the deal.

It's impossible to compare Woods to Jordan, but I understand your point. We are witnessing the best player this world has quite possibly ever seen. He's so dominant it's not even funny to be another contestant. He's just flat out amazing. These are the kinds of performances we will be telling our grandchildren about.

Dare I say....en fuego....


This guy, is freaking rediculous

Well what a Sunday afternoon at Torrey...Tiger comes alive on the back 9, what a performance, and that clutch putt on 18 to make it go another day, only Tiger.

And Rocco WOW! What a hell of a round he put together. At 45 he is still playing great golf and I don't think anyone has more fun than Rocco, class act. I'm sure he would do anything to have 18 over again but thats golf.

Monday, the clear favorite is Tiger. I hope Rocco has the day of his life going toe to toe against Tiger because thats what its going to take to hoist the trophy. Should be fun to watch, I'm pullin for the Huge underdog (but it's just like any other day of match play golf, one hole at a time, and Rocco did put together a better round score wise than Tiger today, can he do it twice...?)...go Rocco!

I'm pulling for Tiger. I'm not one to be enamored by star athletes, but Tiger is an exception.

Rocco had a very good round, with an excellent short game, but my god did he miss some puts. He had multiple opportunities to put the tourney away on the back nine and didn't. I think with Tiger's knee, a full 18 hole playoff benefits Rocco.

I think that Tiger will take it to Rocco today. What a great tournament and kudos to the USGA for setting up a tough, yet very fair golf course this year. Good golf, great course and great crowds made this one a great tourney.

While I'd never bet money against Tiger I think today if Rocco can keep up his play and not fold in the moment he beats Tiger. I just think Tiger's luck (which making those long Eagle putts took skill it also takes Luck) will run out in his round today. Rocco has played more conssitant than Tiger and that is what it takes to win the US open. How many people knew that Tiger's last putt on 18 Sunday was going to drop? I did!

Tiger's comeback was exciting to watch. He had bad luck on the putt on 16 or 17, when it was heading in and hit something, making it go left. Without that, it would've been a championship-winning shot on 18.

Usually, when someone wins constantly, a lot of people including myself roots for them to lose. It's not like that with Tiger. It's hard to root against him.

Hopefully, he'll hit a fairway on Hole 1 today. He has 3 double bogeys and a birdie on 1 this tournament.

He's going to win this U.S. Open on one leg. Even with a bum knee, he's better than everyone else in the world.

Well you could also say that his cip that bounced up a couple of feet and hit the flag pole and feel straight down into the hole was just lucky. I know he did and its always a little luck when things are this tight in a match. When a players wins by 4 or more strokes it takes the luck out of the picture.

What's happening on 17?

Edit: nevermind

[GMScud]

In a round so evenly matched, how perfectly fitting for Tiger and Rocco to finish even par to force sudden death. Just plain awesome.

[12thMan]

Just went into sudden death..this tournament is amazing.

[Riggo44]

Wow this is getting crazy!

damn I wish I was in front of a TV instead of sitting in my cubical hitting Refresh every couple of seconds, and I'm not even a golfer!
