How about we "give" them 2 mulligans and 3 strokes per side? If you have to "give" someone anything in order for them to win, they don't deserve to be playing in a major.

Tiger has won 3 of the last 3 weeks he's played - 2 of those are majors. He's not only playing better, he's playing smarter, showing an adaptability and game flexibility no one else possesses at this time. If you're unwilling to see the greatness before you, then your blindness is pitiful.

Yep. Another money title and Player Of The Year award for the greatest golfer of all time.

With Retief Goosen and Ernie Els disappearing from the upper echelon, Vijay beginning to slow down as he approaches his mid-40's, and Phil unable to sustain any substantial run of consistent greatness, it looks like Tiger is in for another very long run atop the OWGR.

And no excuses are needed from Pelz. He said "...when Phil is at the top of his game." Phil hasn't been at the top of his game since April.

And like Feherty said "When Tiger's on top of his game, he wins Majors by 15 shots" Nuff said

Luke just couldn't get a putt to stay in early, and once he was a few behind, he had to press to keep up, and he just couldn't do it. I have no doubt that Luke will take a major someday.

I would agree with that. If Ogilvy can take something positive out of a couple T6s last summer (Open, PGA), there is no reason to think Luke cannot have a similar experience. He is a great player, still only 28, and an extremly bright person. I am sure he learned much about himself today.
