Saying that Haas has no shot tomorrow is foolish IMO, same as I think saying Ames and Goosen and Weir have no shot. It will likely come down to Tiger and Jay but if they falter a bit one of the three aforementioned players might be able to sneak in and win. A Tiger win might rejuvenate the tour and add a bit of buzz to the start of next season, a Haas win would provide a feel-good ending to the season, but one thing's for sure in my mind: we will be in for some good golf tomorrow. Can't wait to see how Tiger's game holds up over the final brutal holes at East Lake should it come down to that.
I know of of a lot of players on tour that are just as likely to catch fire as Tiger is to start missing fairways again. Lots of those guys can go low at any given time.
Watching Mike and Zach implode today was sad.....hope they both come back with good rounds tomorrow.

Let's see...Tiger shoots 65 and he's back, Haas shoots 68 to stay in contention - hang in there, Jay...Weir shoots 67 and what? implodes? Three other people shot 67...bet they don't think they imploded. The guy three-jacked one hole people...get a grip. Honestly I don't think the -5's have much of a chance today but I'd wager they're not conceding just yet.
Implosions: Carlos Franco, Todd Hamilton, Chad Campbell (why'd he quit?)
I didn't mean to imply that Mike fell apart overall, but after playing so great on friday the last 3 holes were HORRIBLE, including the double on the 18th. Saturday was looking up so hopefully he will get back in it today. Everyone saw he has the game to do it, so hopefully he can put together a round that will put him on top. Go Mike!!!!
LOL...my bad!...I should have looked at the post dates...yes, Friday's finish would qualify as an implosion...without that he would most certainly be sitting in third place alone with a chance to catch the leaders, if not tied for the lead...I took this guy for my final fantasy golf pick of the year. My apologies to baron and Donnakay. Have to admire Weir's tenacity.
Ah yes. . . I have a feeling he is back. If he could only keep it on the fairway :( He has the same fairways hit % as I do, and I hit in the mid 90's lol. I've always been a Tiger fan, so the last tourny of the year, to see him performing "better" is a nice change. Cant wait for 05'

So sad that Tiger couldn't pull it off in the end - guess he's not back completely...also sad to see Jay Haas break down prob. from fatigue...
Goosen, however, so solid!
Haas hasn't won for what, 11 years? Most likely forgotten how to do it, hence crumbling a bit down the stretch - you could see he lost his rhythm. Tiger has GOT to start hitting some fairways. Goosen hit 17 of 18 greens I think - that is how you go low.
Sad? Hype when Tiger shoots 64 - solid when the Goose does it? One eyed fans?
No, I don't think so. Just recognizing the difference between a Friday 64 to get into contention and a Sunday 64 to run away and slam the door with everything on the line.
