Anyone besides me obsessed with checking the scores for the U.S. Open every five seconds?
Tiger Woods is an absolute freak of nature. His chip in on 17, and eagle putt on 18 on Saturday were the stuff of legends. And with a bum knee to boot!
It’s killing me that I can’t watch the playoff right now and have to resort to clicking “refresh” on the online scorecard.
UPDATE: MSNBC is simulcasting the playoff round online!
After seven holes, Woods is up by two strokes.
Tiger bogeyed the 8th, now leads by 1.
Hilarious. This site is live blogging the playoff. I just read this comment:
Rocco’s choking this one away. Muffed a putt on the ninth to fall three back.
You can watch it live at usopen.com Very good quality stream. So stop the refreshing and go watch it dude.
Yeah, thanks man. I also discovered the MSNBC stream, but this one seems to be working much better.
Looks like Rocco’s going to make a match of this after all. Two holes ago he was three shots back, now he’s within one as they approach the 14th green.
okay, tiger’s shot out of the bunker was ridiculous.
it’s golf, dude. golf.
i just don’t get it.
Jim, you’re right. That shot out of the bunker was amazing. But he just shanked his putt and is now a stroke back!
(Shut up Tim.)
I cannot believe he laid that put an inch short on 16!
He’s starting to look human. Gasp!
Of course Woods birdies 18 to force sudden death! This has been amazing!
Man, Rocco has completely fallen apart in the sudden death hole. First he puts his tee shot in the bunker, then his approach goes over the gallery. Tiger could put from where he is right now and win the tournament.
TIGER FREAKING WOODS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
in addition, i’d like to add that Tiger’s legend was just cemented in iron. (is that like a weaving a clay tapestry?) anyway, we’ll see this one on ESPN classic for the rest of our lives.
wow
I keep forgetting that prior to this event Tiger hadn’t played golf in two months!
I’m not sure what the golf world is going to do when this guy hangs them up. I enjoy golf, play it from time to time, watch the majors, etc. But unless Tiger’s in the lead or in the hunt, I tend not to care very much.
Anyway, this was golf at its absolute best! Poor Rocco.
Oh, and Tiger’s daughter is officially cute as a bug’s ear.
well, she does have superhero genetics you know.
seriously dude. it’s goooooolf π
Oops, I meant to include a pic of Tiger’s kid.
And Tim. Shut up. I love golf.
i mean tim, you’re irish. how can you not like golf? am i wrong? aren’t there like more golf courses in ireland than people?
I think you mean pubs. π
well actually, it was created in scotland, and i’m scottish, too. i like playing golf…well, mini-golf and driving ranges (the in-between stuff is too confusing!), but to watch it…that’s just painful! oh well, to each there own π
