If Tiger wins, it'll be his best win so far. I can't wait till tomorrow night.

The face that this is on late at night is even better since tomorrow is Father's Day.

US Open
Father's Day
Tiger in the mix
Tiger on a bad knee

Sounds like a good today tomorrow.

Some interesting tidbits...

They were saying earlier in the weekend how Tiger's knee would be at least 90% and that it wouldn't be a big deal.

He reads his putts fine (bending).

He's walking without a limp.

I believe he's in a lot pain but I can see where the people hate Tiger are coming up with things.

Jesus. What an ending by Tiger. I'll fully admit that I'm one of those people that never watches golf unless it's a major and Tiger is in it. And I'm loving this.
Don't be ashamed of that. 90% of people watching are the same way. PGA ratings quadruple when Tiger not only plays, but is in contention on the weekend.

Tiger is back in the lead.

Pretty amazing really.

If he wins, this might be his most impressive of all his majors.

Still not over though, especially with his balky knee.

really? dude is unreal

Sukadrukanga 06-16-2008 02:59 AM

I missed the big putt, but I'm more than pumped for the playoff tomorrow and I'll be home to watch it. If Tiger wins, it'd be one of the greatest wins of all-time.

Muramoursuard 06-16-2008 03:30 AM

I was pretty sure there was no way that putt was going in.

Tomorrow's going to be great.

I was 50/50 on the putt, I was about 10/90 that the approach shot wouldn't be close (90% sure it wouldn't be)

having the playoff tomorrow is f*cking BS, my Dad and I will both be at work, of course Ill be able to see it, but my Dad wont and we dont get to watch golf together very often. f*ckin PGA.

Bridgester 06-16-2008 05:19 AM

Not a fan of the next day playoff. Glad this about the only tourney that does that... like sudden death, not a full round. Though, while we usually have to have the TV's turned to the cnbc (for market news), the boss already gave the ok for watching the playoff tomorrow.

That putt was awesome.

Isn't it the USGA that runs the US Open?

Anyway, I don't much mind the next day playoff. I don't know enough golf, nor watch enough of it, to know how playoffs are usually done. So, being that I was actually watching the US Open this year, and that I can watch tomorrow, I actually like this. But, I don't rightly understand it. Seems like an 18-hole playoff is a whole damn lot when other tourneys do sudden death or a lesser number of holes.

If I couldn't watch tomorrow, like any normal person that might watch golf, I'd be pissed about this, too.

TerriLS 06-16-2008 04:20 PM

I don't like sudden death. One bad gust of wind can kill you.

I don't like 18 hole playoffs. It seems overkill, and it loses a bit of it's thrill factor.

Give me a four hole playoff any day. Holes 15-18. Then Rocco may have a chance.

There's no way Rocco will be able to beat Tiger today, head-to-head, in 18 holes.

The 18 hole playoff is only a US Open thing. I like the 4 hole playoff as well.

Essefsbyday 06-16-2008 05:04 PM

looks like i'll be watching it til one, then hit the road and hope to catch the end upon arrival.

Rocco made a few phone calls.

Jeff Gillooly is on his way.

gregmcal 06-16-2008 05:14 PM

Rocco missed a fairly easy putt on one.

Eldrick takes a one shot lead.
