2 shot lead two to play looking a bit nervous and twitchy

[Digger]

Hang about. Did I just hear that right or misheard that Tiger could also become World No.1?

I misheard him surely!

eta he’ll potentially be 13th I think I just heard.

Justin Rose just bagged $10 million. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy

[johnxjsc1985]

Woods second shot into the bunker only two shots to play with so really got 4 to get up and down

No he didn’t. His caddy looked happier as he probably skimmed a cool million off that 10!

[johnxjsc1985]

I am sure he is going to do it and it will be some comeback and the crowds walking behind him are just crazy thousand upon thousand of them

[Smiljan]

How the hell does he concentrate with that behind him?

[johnxjsc1985]

Woods with 1876 days since last PGA win. Now got a 6 footer for a birdie

[Digger]

Mcilroy. . . . fk off and let Tiger do the walk. .

yes nice work.
Tiger Wins what a comeback

[Digger]

This does give me the Tiger feels. Really happy for the man. Well played Sir!

[Blackpuddin]

Well, he's only gone and done it. Well done him.

Runner up in the fedex too, missing out only by Rose birdie on 18. The most incredible thing is the world rankings, he’s scored 232 points from 22 events, without the minimum divisor he would be on 10.54 average which is enough for the number 1 spot, DJ is 10.29.

Tiger is head and shoulders the greatest golfer of my (his) generation, but by some margin he fails the Good Guy test, so I can’t bring myself to root for him.

This, unfortunately. Still great to watch though!

North Shore at Skegness this weekend - heard good things about it, but never played it.

We’re considering tagging it on to a trip to Woodhall Spa next year as one of the guys fancies a night out in skeggy (no idea why).

Report back!

Friday was horrendous - 50mph gusts of winds, balls coming back towards you once you put them up in the air. Saturday was much calmer.

Nice course and a little different but unless you get a particularly good deal I wouldn't go out of my way to play it again.

It's 80% links style course which is a nice change, but seems to give them an excuse not to look after their fairways that well.

Playing alongside the sea is nice.

Skeggy was erm, an 'interesting' night out.

[Rosscow]

Can't wait until Friday!

Having a cooked breakfast, playing 18 holes, back home for about 1pm to watch a couple of hours of Day 1 then our ride is collecting us at 3pm.

Catching the 5pm Eurotunnel and will be in Saint Germain en Laye hopefully by 10pm ready for a few beers before an early morning start to get to the course!

COME ON EUROPE!!!

Yep, same here.

He really is amazing to watch play golf, power and grace combined, like many of the all time great athletes/sportsmen(and women!).

But he is still a douche.
