Tiger Woods

You gotta be happy for the guy, glad he scored well today. Played as a single(Justin Rose w/d) and really got a lot out his ball striking. I thought if he could shoot around par for the week it would be a good effort. Sustaining momentum has been an issue for Tiger during this period of injury and inactivity so this weekend could be very compelling.
25 under par won the tournament last year. So, this is one you have to go low in. Tiger is not going to win this tournament but it is a good one to start.
Although it is a limited field, it is a very, very strong field. No slouches in this tournament. Most of the world's best players are in it.
He looks pretty good. Just hope he can keep it up for 4 days.

Don't think he will get in Firestone this year unless he would win at least twice before then. His world ranking is bad right now. Memorial he should play in.

I don't condone some of his past behavior off the course, but I am pulling for him
In his prime he would blow away the current golfers.. I hope he can get back to that level.. Would be great for golf.

Tiger is like MJ, he brought a UUUUGE audience to the sport. When he's not playing, that audience isn't watching. I really got in to golf because of him. I rarely missed a tourney he was in. Now, I turn it on for background noise if there is nothing else on. I'll admit, that's more than I do for the NBA since MJ left...
Birdie...birdie...birdie...that's how Tiger starts his Saturday round. Wow.
