Tiger....what a chopper!

[Dodger]

Shot his brains out on the 1st day of JP's Pro-Am with a 79.

Do we read anything into this going into next week?

I thought he would come back and win at least 1 of the majors but the way he is hitting it I just can't see it.

Fingers crossed he scores better soon, it looks to me that he's swinging better the last couple tournaments but just not scoring, he looked like he was just going through the motions over the weekend.
I'm really looking forward to watching The Open and it would be great if Tiger is amongst the leaders towards the end.

Not sure how much you can read into a pro-am score. Hardly Open tournament conditions and a glorified jolly

Its where i spent most of today chaps and i will be there all of tomorrow as well...I took 2 days off work for it......
I followed Tiger for a bit and yes he struggled but what most people dont know is that he arrived at adare monor at 7 o clock this morning for a 1.30pm tee time ....
But he seemed to be just taking things in his stride and actually mingled with alot of kids for autographs and photo's...

Don't ken what the weather was like over the water but it was about 30 mph winds on my island today! That's gonna hurt on the links!

Similar here today but the Manor course is a parkland course...Its pretty tough at the best of times but it was very windy today....Having said that the proper rough was just above knee high if you happened to venture past the first cut alongside the fairway....Fairways were very tightly mown and the ground is like marble so its not too dissimilar to a links in some ways.

I just dont think Tiger wants to play golf. I think the sponsors he still has are 'forcing' him back to tour with the threat of legal action if he refuses. He has sold his soul and is now paying the price.

Although why anyone would want a photo or autograph is beyond me.........

Araaragh - I did not know about this - would have loved to go and see them playing.

Tiger had trouble with a sore neck.
An American female TV announcer misread her script and said he had a bulging dick.

3 under today....better form,Clarke leading at the moment.

I was there again today gents and the conditions were torrid....Got some great photo's and a few autographs....I must say that all competitors pro's and celebrities alike were absolute gentlemen...They had no worries posing for photo's and signing autographs that play was slowing down slightly over it.....But it was all for charity and the end of the day....There were ups and downs everywhere...Thouroughly enjoyable 2 days..... I wasnt impressed with a few big names though....JB Holmes,Woods, to name 2.....
One person that really inspired me though was Manuel de la santos.....
If anyone ever gets the chance to see this guy in the flesh its a complete treat his attitude and aura are up there with the best and an absolute gent too.I dont think i once saw him in bad humour, always smiling
