Should be a doozie...if Tiger's knee holds up, I don't see anyone beating him.

Checking in. Gotta make a quick run to Wally, Farm Supply, and maybe Home Depot then its Another_Dude and Another_BigolTV to watch some limpin' Tiger goodness.

Side topic: Is there any athlete from any time period that is or was better than Tiger at golf?

There's room for debate, but Tiger still takes my #1 spot.

IMO, Tiger's the best athlete I've ever seen-period. He's better than Secretariat was in horse racing...by far.

No one else can compare to Tiger.

I honestly can't think of someone who has so completely dominated their sport as Tiger has.

Tiger is really something special.

Even if you hate golf you should watch him today. There is no way you won't enjoy it.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who has holes like Tiger's first!

This isn't a pretty start.

C'mon, Tiger!

Unless he dies tragically, it will happen.

If he stays healthy, yes, he will.

He's just too good not to.

He's only 32. It's pretty much a certainty that he will.

Posted: 6/15/2008 1:07:21 PM EDT

[#31]

He's set up for a decent birdie putt on 3. He needs to get in the zone.

Posted: 6/15/2008 1:10:29 PM EDT

Man, Rocco can't miss a fairway!

Posted: 6/15/2008 3:00:55 PM EDT

I believe he's got it going now!!!!

Posted: 6/15/2008 3:04:09 PM EDT

Playing very well...so is Rocco. Westwood's struggling just a bit, but still good around the greens.

I love this tournament.

Yep. Hey be the Kirk Gibson of golf today.

well, is Tiger gonna pull it off?

I say he birdies 18, to go to a playoff with Rocco, then Rocco wins it

It's the blimp (not Ron Paul's).

It has been a hell of a day. Tiger left a lot on the course and they both fucked up 18 so far. We will see a couple putts here in a second for the tie.

You have a putt to force a playoff in the US Open..........and you leave it short.
