i think it's like the us open and british open only. might be wrong though. and i think it's better, that way one bad hole or good hole doesn't win it. i'm looking forward to tomorrow that's all i know. tiger is a fucking animal.

That was an amazing put at the end there especially after he seemed really nervous and messed up those couple shots before the put.

shows how hard the golf course is for the open... only two people finish the tournament under par, and people who win the tournament shoot over par on the final day

its a win win situation for me
if Tiger wins you see history written and possibly the greatest golfer ever
if Mediate wins it will change his life and he seems like a good guy, he was almost crying when he turned the scorecard in

How long does it take them to do 18? I might catch the last couple holes after school.
Starts at 10 for me.

yeah probably 4-5 hours. and really tiger SHOULDN'T have a problem winning over 18 holes but you never know.

in a way i kinda wouldn't mind seeing rocco win.[CLAIM] i met him at a golf course by my house and he was seriously the nicest guy ever. didn't even know who he was till my dad told me. and it was funny cause it was just a regular, average golf course which was cool.[/CLAIM] plus he is having so much fun it seems like.

i still gotta root for tiger though, he's my man.

True, but he will only feel the pain if he is struggling.  Notice today when he was hitting bad shots he was constantly grimacing, but when he was playing well it was like he couldn't even feel it.  It is the US Open, the pain won't be a problem. I just don't see rocco with his loose attitude having any chance against tiger...

It'd be great if Rocco won it but man, Tiger's focus and domination are something to envy :P

i think this first hole is really gonna be the way things go the rest of the round.  as much as i'd love to see mediate win out of nowhere I just don't see it happening.

He didn't really have an attitude, I thought he was fairly out in the open because he freely admitted when he was really scared and nervous during Sunday. Plus he was quite thankfull of just making it to the spot he was in (leader sitting in clubhouse)


Go Rocco! (Even though Tiger is one of my favorite athletes)

I just don't like this whatever happens, happens....I can't believe I'm here type of attitude.  To me it seems like he doesn't believe in himself and has already settled on losing and is just along for the ride.  Plus he's so damn fidgity.
