Tiger is clearly the favorite going into the weekend

t-wizzle · 07-20-12, 01:21 PM

Wasn't that hard of a bunker shot. Very makeable.

He's in great position though heading into the weekend. I think he needs to get a little more aggressive on the Par 5s.

jjgold · 07-20-12, 01:37 PM

I doubt he fades like the last major

Guy is just on more leader-boards than most guys now

I think you are down playing that bunker shot slightly. You don't see that happen all that often from a bunker. And especially a pot bunker like that.

Woods has to like this information:

-Brandt Snedeker has never made the cut at the British Open, but now he sits in first
-Saturday will be the first time Adam Scott has ever played in the final group in a major on the weekend.

Tiger is one of the most hated pro athletes to this date...and we wonder why.... Turn on Sportscenter, Tiger is at the top, highlighted winning or losing, turn on Sportscenter and it's "Tiger and The Open", or any tournament for that matter. I will not deny Tiger turned the sport around, but what about the other 100+ players? Who cares about the current leader or even the winner, but Tiger missed the cut or Tiger is in the hunt.

Oh, come on...bunch of golf professionals over here at SBR.

Mike Huntertz · 07-20-12, 04:53 PM

He'll hit one in the deep rough and take an 8.
Bang a whore and leave in 5th

Not saying it happens that often I'm just saying it was makeable.

Yea I'm a 4 handicap.

Tiger even said after the round that it was about as straightforward as it gets. I guarantee you he was thinking he could make that before he hit it.

Yes it was "makeable". Anything that close to the green is "makeable". But Tiger was just being modest. You think his reaction was one of a person that didn't think that was one heck of a shot? If it "wasn't that hard" and so "makeable" then he would have done the usual Tiger wave and picked the ball out of the hole.

The only conclusion I can come to is that you aren't much of a golfer.

dfberger23 · 07-20-12, 06:32 PM

Grab Tiger at +310 !

Cuse0323 · 07-20-12, 06:39 PM

He's in a great position going into the weekend, he's been playing solid and safe so far. If he just keeps plugging away, pick up the birdie opportunities and make pars, he'll be right in it Sunday.

Oh ok. Now I get it. This was all about you feeling superior. The whole not being a hard shot, I am a 4 handicap,...

Makes sense now...

InTheDrink · 07-20-12, 07:56 PM

t wizzle im a 6...5 at best...and i'll beat you by 5 shots 9 out of 10 rounds we play

guaranteed

jjgold · 07-21-12, 06:41 AM

Most regular amateurs have inaccurate true handicaps

A 6 handicap means if you shoot a few 84's or so you need a few 72's to get to your handicap which aint happening

This type scores mean your a very very good golfer

Fukkin Pros have 0 handicaps at least bottom tier guys and top tier guys have -2 handicaps

So I laugh my ass off when guys tell me they are scratch shooter..instead most likely 80 type shooters

Even 3 and 4 handicap guys are fukkin liars for the them most part

Average all your scores and see what a true handicap really is

Believe it or not some guys do shoot in the 70's. You do realize that as long as you don't cheat during a riund that your handicap is simply spit out by a computer after you enter your scores?

Then again I get your point because a guy like t wizzle has probably never entered a score in a computer and thinks all those 59's he shoots add up to a 4 handicap. Guys amazing

BettingWizard · 07-21-12, 10:44 AM

Corleone · 07-21-12, 11:50 AM

Like to see him win, or at least in it till the end. Makes it more interesting for sure.
