Awesome spectacle. He is and has been an amazing competitor.

Can’t wait for the Ryder Cup.

Tiger 'should' (80 to Sam's 82) soon have the most PGA wins of anyone. Hope he hangs in there and beats Jack's record of 18 majors.

Wish they could/would do a better job of controlling the crowds at the major tournament venues. Gets more like a football game every year. Every ball in rough is immediately surround by a large crowd of fat, middle-aged wannabes. How many times did Tiger/officials have to tell folks to stop taking photo's during Tiger's swing next to the green on 17 yesterday? Ah, well. Maybe I've just gotten old. No longer like crowds of any sort. Or, maybe crowds have changed. Rant over.

Glenn, Fight it off. Don’t add the “dgeon” to your “curmu”.

Tiger,s Ryder Cup performance leaves little to be desired, at this point his consistency of poor play at the Ryder Cup one wonders if he should ever be chosen again as a player. And Im a huge tiger fan but he's proven he doesn't perform at these events.

Yeah, he is only the 13th ranked player in the world and five of those are Europeans. He deserves to be there.

You are correct he (and his partners) do not play foursomes or four balls well.

In singles he is 4-1-2 which is what you would expect.

Not sure what it is that gives the U.S. team the heebie-geebies in the Ryder Cup. Our side is very consistent in playing poorly in same. Must not be enough $$ involved. That and the fact that few of them go over early enough to not suffer some from jet-lag. I've got other excuses if you would like to read some more.............

Tiger seems to be getting his game back. -8 in today's round at Augusta ain't too shabby.

He had a good round!! I saw him play at the World Champions Dell Technologies Match Play in Austin a couple weeks ago and he made it to the quarter finals. His driver was his worst enemy. Great scrambler! Right now his short game is second to none. Great wedge shots!
