To me that's what is impressive about it

Back before they Tiger proofed Augusta National and they could blow it right off the 11th tee, I was standing about 20 feet from Tiger in a practice round watching him hit that boring draw with a short iron into the green. It was the most "connected" looking swing I've ever seen.
 
Tiger showed yesterday that he is the master when he has the lead. He looks more in his element with the lead. I think it boils down to possibly pressing too much when he doesn't have the lead than anything. But those two 9 irons yesterday were pured. The first one knowing your going to hit the tree right after impact was one of the most difficult shots I've seen him hit. To still square that nugget up knowing what was about to happen is ridiculous.

I think this tournament was the first one in a while where the "Tiger factor" came into play. It was obvious on 16 that he was in Bo's head.
 
Not so sure. Tiger is the best putter ever on super fast greens. He's not on slow stuff.

He'll be ok. Greens aren't the defense at The Open. His imagination is as good as anybody & if he gets his short game back on track he should do well.
 
I am planning on getting fit for a driver on Saturday. Looking at the new Taylormade RBZ Tour driver and the Calloway Razor. I'll post my results of the fitting and launch monitor.
