So true, man. Duval, lately, has been playing very well. Tiger, it seems to me, is ready to coast. Very strange, eh?
Howell has been hot for a long time. He's a great player. Colin is a fluke, but I don't think there's anyone in the world who wouldn't like to see him win a major.
Keep your eye on Kevin Stadler.
Otherwise, Furyk is my pick!
Oh, what about Phil? I always under rate Phil. I still don't think he "has it." If he wins, he'll go way up the ladder in my book. Otherwise, it will be a week like Michelle's.....Wie Wie Wie, all the way home!!
-1 over the last 6 holes. He should have hit 3-wood or an iron off the 12th. I'm pretty sure he wouldn't have doubled it in that case.
The tee shot wasn't what caused him to make double. The short iron to the green that bounced off the edge of the bunker and ended up on the downslope on the backside of the bunker, plus the below average sand shot off the back of the green and the missed putt was what caused him to make double.

If he'd hit a better tee shot, he wouldn't have been 155 yards out. He would have had a sand wedge or pitching wedge and that DOES make a difference vs. 7 or 8 iron in terms of room for error.

Ask any professional and they will tell you, if they have 8 iron or higher in their hand, it is a scoring club. They shouldn't miss like he did on that shot.

He didn't miss by much. The commentator even said that it was just a little right of the hole. With a sand wedge or pitching wedge, 3 or 4 more yards of accuracy would have helped in this case. He certainly botched it up even more after that though.
I don't think I would like to see it. I just don't like watching him play.
Okay, so there's one person who doesn't want him to win a major. He's been through ****, and he's one of the best golfers of the generation. Oh well, so much for sentimentality.
