Arnold Palmer Invitational

[triple_bogey]

Always look forward to this tournament. Looking a strong field this year.

Obviously TW FTW!

(Rumor has it, Tiger has the Covert driver for this week.)

 

[triple_bogey]

Seems rumors are not true, but the 5 wood is still there.

Just read, he hit a 2nd shot wedge into a par 5 and drains the eagle. :whoo:

just watching Phil carve one left off the 11th into the water - I wonder if it will occur to him to take relief at an equidistant spot the other side of the lake on the fairway (another hole's fairway) rather than the probably poor rough he looks likely to have to drop in where he went in (it's a LWH).

looking at it I would!

interesting

EDIT - ah, they showed that the rough was really low where he could drop, so he didn't need to consider alternatives!

-7 For Rose!!

I see the bookies are taking no chances on Tiger,even though he's 4 shots back of Rose they are only only offering odds of 5-2 for the win.

They are still offering 20-1 on Rose for the Masters which look like a pretty good bet......

There must be something to this Sean Foley swing lark.

Tiger, Rose, Mahan all look in fantastic form.

Loving Tiger's assement of his round...

"I didn't drive it well, didn't hit my irons well and didn't control my distances well or my trajectory. Other than that, it was good."

...and he's 3 under

That's quite interesting that as Tiger needs to get the driver going to win and this seems still to be an issue with he's current game.I think though when he's driving it well he'll be tough to beat.

If Tiger's driving were as consistent as his putting, he would have literally been unbeatable for about 10 of the last 15 years.
