[dinojen]

One day .. 3 hours and so many minutes... I cannot wait... gotta figure out what time it will be on tv on the west coast.. so I can at least tape it... or the option of getting up in the middle of the night and watching it... :thumbsup:

I am so excited... going to be great... love it... :beer:

See ya all on Thursday....:biggrin:

[dinojen]

12 hours to go... :beer:

When I get home tonite will see if I can find a link that those of us stuck at work can watch or at least listen to it... More than likely though it will be on early morning hours for us..

Will check out a little more later...

[dinojen]

Morning... today is the day... TNT is covering it from 7 AM till late this afternoon.. and PGA I believe has a link you can watch on the internet.

http://www.pga.com/openchampionship/2009/multimedia/video/live/default/player.html

Going to have to see if I can get it at work.

Tiger last time I checked is on 15 and is at EVEN..

Tom Watson in the lead with 5 under I believe..

Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.. the tournament has begun :beer:


Let me edit this.. he's at +1 after 16...

[dinojen]

WOW... check out the leaderboard...

http://www.thegolfchannel.com/pga-tour/2009-138th-open-golf-championship/scores/

John Daly at -2 thru 7... hope he gets his act together and takes his talent serious.. we shall see as my Mom says..

Tom Watson on top.. loving it... Stewart Cink too... nice guys.

OK.. I actually have to work today so will check back in a bit and definately tontie.

Hope everyone has a great day.

Don't forget it's on TNT today for those that are home and want to watch..

[sunstar]

Hi dinojen!! :seeya: I could only check up on it on the computer and saw that Tiger finished at +1 today. :sad: I'm really proud of Tom Watson though ~ wow!! :thumbsup:

[Daniel Konrath]

Not sure Watson can sustain it but Links type golf has always been his forte..........Who knows?.........Tiger's swing looked a little out of balance today but you can never count him out..........The difference between him and everyone else, other than being the greatest of all time coming off a bad shot, is his ability to play at a level to stay among the leaders in every tournament..........I've never seen anything like it.............Anyone who plays golf knows what I mean..........

[dinojen]

Tom Watson just tee'd off on the first and got a birdie.. continues to have a share of the lead... love it..

Tiger tees off in approx. an hour from now and it's live on TNT.. have to get ready for work.. so will have to see if I can pick it up on the internet.. at least listen to it...:tonguewag:

They are saying the cut will most likely be a +2 or maybe +3 as of right now..

Have a good day everyone... will check back later..

[dinojen]

:thumbsup::beer::thumbsup:

I got it live on my computer at work... LOVE IT...

[dinojen]

:crying: WHOA... Tiger might not make the cut... what a shock.. He's putting for another bogey on the 12th.. so he's got 6 holes to knock off a few strokes.. this is just mind blowing..

[grammie/va]

Tiger definately does not seem to be on his game this week. Happy that Watson is doing good though, so if not Tiger than I can root for Watson

[dinojen]

:crying: Totally BUMMED... but now that it seems like a given that Tiger is flying home.. I'm in shock.. just in shock... John Daly plays the weekend and Tiger goes home.. never thought I would see the day...:tonguewag:

So now it's on to root for Tom Watson... love him.. think it would be great and Jack Nicklaus would be ecstatic...

Guess we will see what happens tomorrow.. lots of good golf still ahead..

Hi dinojen! :seeya: I didn't even get to see Tiger play. Oh well, I guess I'll cheer on Tom too!

[dinojen]

Hi dinojen! :seeya: I didn't even get to see Tiger play. Oh well, I guess I'll cheer on Tom too!


You didn't miss much Sunstar.. wow.. he just had one bad thing after another and no matter how hard he tried.. just got worse.. Like Lee Westwood said who played with him.. everyone has an off day and today was Tiger's, he said he had never seen anything like it.

I'll be rooting for Tom too... think it would be great.. I think if he can pull it off it will tie him with number of wins with Vardon from years ago..6 British Open wins... now that's history.. and would be great.:thumbsup:

[WillowInFlight]

I'm pulling for Boo Weekley, hope his shoulder holds out.

[dinojen]

Watson all by himself in the lead.. -5 just tee'd off the 3rd hold, both him and Marino are in one of those lovely bunkers... how the heck they get out of those darn holes beats me... I'd be in there all day...lol:tonguewag:

[ABC]

Tom has always been my favorite...I would REALLY love to see him pull this off.

It was good to see John Daly's name up there again. It would be great if he could somehow pull his act together to be able to play like he did when he first came on the scene.
I would be thrilled if either Sergio or John pulled this off and won this thing or the kid Rory McIllory.

[dinojen]

Well... Watson has the lead by two... he's still at -5 under the others are making some mistakes.

Can't believe that there is a rule once you are 60 you cannot play the British Open.. that seems kind of unfair...

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090716/ap_on_re_eu/glf_tim_dahlberg071609



These guys under Watson can't get too far back, this course seems very hard to pick up strokes... Tiger found that out yesterday.. one hole can blow you away...:sad:

[dinojen]

Watson still leading.. loving this... by one stroke with Marino and Fisher one stroke back..

Did you all hear Fisher's story.. his wife is expecting their first child.. he has his pager.. beeper.. phone whatever and he said if he gets the call.. he's gone.. (how much do you want to bet he doesn't get the call even if she does go into labor).. not if he's going to be in his first possible final pairing .. especially for the British Open.. amazing young player.. just like Marino..

Great stories in this tournament.:wink:


If this is Scotland's summer... I hate to see what their winters are like:tonguewag:

[dinojen]

3 tied for the lead now.. oops..make that two.. Marino just got a bogey.. so 2 at the lead.. Watson and Aussie Goggin. 3 under...

Gotta go to the store... enjoy golf.. will check back later..

[dinojen]

Wow... go to the store for like 20 mins. and come back and the whole leaderboard changes...

Goggin leading.. with Watson one back and poor Marino all the way back at even..

Looks like future new dad is going to be tied for the lead...

[dinojen]

I know I'm talking to myself.. but that's okay..

Watson just made an amazing putt and it just put himself back on top of the leaderboard with Goggin and Fisher... this guy has been amazing all week long.. he has the next hole that is makeable from the tee... possible eagle or birdie...

Don't ever count the old guys out...:thumbsup:

Fisher and Goggin in the clubhouse with Watson just teeing off on the 17th

On the green in 2.. possible birdie for Tom

[dinojen]

One shot lead going on to the 18th ... amazing golfing...

Tomorrow is going to be great golf...

Okay I'll shut up...:tonguewag:

Least if anyone missed the play today they will have easy catch up reading here... ROTFLMBO..

Hi dinojen! :seeya: I watched today's coverage off and on while I was busy doing stuff around the house and did get to see Tom's beautiful long birdie near the end! I just hope the commentators didn't jinx him for tomorrow with all the talk about him being the oldest winner! :biggrin:

:wub:

[dinojen]

Thank you... I have it on right now... keeping my fingers crossed for the old guy..lol... but would be nice for Fisher to win also.. then go home with the Claret jug for his new baby...:biggrin:

Man Fisher just had a horrendous tee shot.. he's in the thick thick stuff..

WOW.. this one hole is going to change the leaderboard.. he hit the ball and it only went about 3 feet.. he's still in the weeds... horrible hole for him... He's out... but now he's in the tall grass on the other side of the fairway.. this is going to be like a double or triple bogey I bet... OUCH..

[bchand]

My husband was just reading the paper and it said Jack Nicklaus is watching because of Watson. lol He said he normally doesn't even watch it on tv.

[dinojen]

They just talked to Jack on the phone...told Tom to win one for the old guys...lol.. Jack's another favorite.. classy guys...

Crossed my mind.. wonder if Tiger is watching....lol... still can't believe he isn't playing the weekend..

Man can't even figure out yet how many strokes Fisher is going to have on this monster hole... wow...

[dinojen]

WOW.. I don't even know what they call it after a triple bogey.. an 8 on one hole... :scared:

Watson back in the lead with a 2 under with a group of others...

Bet Fisher was glad to get off that hole...:tonguewag:

Hubby is coming home today finally... so that will be a great present.. (especially since he does the cooking in our house...:tonguewag:)

Great golf today... I am hoping Tom pulls this off too.. great history

WOW Westwood just made a eagle and is the leader by 2...




55 degrees out and it's summer in Scotland... brrrrrrrrrrrrr... that's our winter here in California...lol
Bet we see lots of changes today.. in the leader...

This is going to be an exciting day for golf fans. I used to play when I was young. Now I just watch.

Tom just missed his eagle shot. :sad:

I hear ya.. haven't been on a course in years but hope that changes next year.. after a little tweaking of a cantankerous knee...lol.

I saw that.. but at least he made his birdie.. slow and steady goes the way... no rush...

My Mom just called.. she has it on too...

Wow what a gorgeous drive Watson just did.. he's hitting almost every fairway... knock on wood...:thumbsup:

[dinojen]

Dang bogey for Watson... so that puts him at 2 under.. but... Westwood is in trouble.. shot out of the high grass.. missed the fairway and went to the left back into the tall grass so it's possible he could lose a stroke or two...

Everyone is trying to get into the clubhouse with like a 1 under..


Westwood is in short thick rough.. got it on the green but looks like a two putt.

Watson just had a beautiful drive.. right in the middle of the fairway...

[dinojen]

Bogey for Westwood.. he's lucky considering where he was... now hopefully Watson can make a birdie.. even things up again.:thumbsup:

[dinojen]

Goggin is now tied for the lead with Westwood with Watson one back..

Fisher... omg.. he's just falling apart..think he has gone from the lead to plus one.

Gorgeous drive by Watson... hope he gets a birdie...:tonguewag: On the front of the green... just putt the sucker in...

:beer: just went to make some toast..thanks for telling me..:thumbsup:

[dinojen]

Dang... he lost a stroke... :angry:

But he can still make it back.. or the other two leaders can take a tumble yet too....

Whoa... Westwood went right into one of those deep deep bunkers.. I could never get out of one of those.. heck I can't get out of regular bunker very well...lmbo

Goggin.. just got a bogey too...

[dinojen]

What a shot by Watson... on the green... in two on the 16th..love it..

Westwood just hit his ball in the thick rough.. not pretty.. on the 17th...

Only a couple more holes... and Watson knock on wood has the lead back again.. all by his lonesome..:thumbsup:

[MissouriGMom]

Ok, I'm not going to have any fingernails left by the time this is over. :ohmy:

[dinojen]

WOW.. Cink now tied for the lead... at 2 under... but Westwood has a eagle putt... this is unbelievable the changes going on. Watson had a great drive though.. so we shall see...

Wonder if it will go to a playoff...:tonguewag:

Now three tied for the lead... only Watson and Westwood can do something about it.. Cink is in the clubhouse... what a day of golf...

[MissouriGMom]

Man oh man, Cink just finished 18 and is now tied with Tom at -2.

[dinojen]

Westwood in the bunker on the 18th.. killer to get out of...

Watson walking up to the 17th.. par 5.. should be able to make a birdie..possibly a eagle...:thumbsup:

Birdie on 17th for Watson... on to the 18th with a one stroke lead..

[MissouriGMom]

I can't watch anymore...each time I am paying attention, Tom misses one...I'm a jinx...:wink:

That's ok, Pia. Jen and I will tell you what's happening! :thumbup:

[sunstar]

Hi everybody! :seeya: I've been watching but now that the end is near had to get here to cheer on Tom on the last hole!! :thumbsup:

[sunstar]

Lee just missed a birdie on 18. Needs a par to tie Cink at -2. He missed it and finishes at -1.

Tom's walking down the 18th fairway...:thumbsup:

[sunstar]

Tom's ball was in the rough off the green on the 18th and on his 3rd shot went past the hole, putt will be for par to win. :scared:

[sunstar]

Tom putting for par to win


Oh no!!! He missed it! 4 hole playoff with Stewart Cink. :sad:

[MissouriGMom]

Dang. :scared:

[sunstar]

Dang. :scared:

I'll enjoy the extra holes but I sure was hoping he'd win it on the 18th. :sad:

[MissouriGMom]

Tom putting for par to win


Oh no!!! He missed it! 4 hole playoff with Stewart Cink. :sad:

I will sooooo cry if Tom doesn't win. :crying:

[dinojen]

Dang.. playoff.... come on Tom.. only four more holes...

:thumbsup:

[sunstar]

I will sooooo cry if Tom doesn't win. :crying:

I really want him to win to make history!! Cink can wait until another tournament. :laugh:

[dinojen]

Boy both in those nasty bunkers....:scared:


I could say something but it's not allowed on this board....

OK...putter in Tom.. and I wish that stupid announcer would zip it with the fatigue comments.. they are running on adrenalin...

[sunstar]

Darn! Cink got a birdie on the first playoff hole. I'm with you, dinojen, about the announcers! :rolleyes:

[MissouriGMom]

Oh, no. It's looking grim. :cursing:

[dinojen]

Oh, no. It's looking grim. :cursing:

Looking up.. what a shot.. couldn't even see the pin... love it...:thumbsup:


PAR WOO HOO

[sunstar]

Thank goodness Tom didn't miss that long putt on the 2nd playoff hole! Whew! Cink made his par though so he's still one ahead.

[sunstar]

Oh, no. It's looking grim. :cursing:

Keep praying! :wub:

[sunstar]

Another (double) bogey putt for Tom. And only one hole left. :crying:

[dinojen]

This sucks...:sad:

[MissouriGMom]

:crying: :crying: :crying:

[sunstar]

Even though we're disappointed ~

Congrats to Stewart Cink ~ he had to beat one of the best! :biggrin:

[dinojen]

I like Cink.. congrats....but really was pulling for Tom:crying:

This one will go down in the books:wink:

[sunstar]

I like Cink.. congrats....but really was pulling for Tom:crying:

This one will go down in the books:wink:

Oh I like him too. I just wanted to see 59 y/o Tom pull it off again. Cink really did earn the win though ~ but it probably helped that he got a rest break before the playoff that Tom didn't get. :biggrin:

[sunstar]

Tom was such a class act at the press conference afterward. It was so much fun to watch this tournament! :thumbsup:

[dinojen]

I was going to start this thread out with the pairings and tee off times of the players.. but when I went to the Golf Channels website because the PGA web only had a pdf link... I ran across this...

LMBO.. the PGA is fining Tiger Woods for his comments about the official putting Padrig Harrington on the clock for his play on the 16th hole...

I found Tiger's stance on the issue fantastic.. and I think what he said to Padrig on the green after they finished play fantastic too... jmo..

CHASKA, Minn. – Tiger Woods will be fined by the PGA Tour for his public criticism of a rules official after winning the Bridgestone Invitational, a tour official said Monday.

The official spoke on condition of anonymity because the Tour does not publicize fines.

Woods was bothered after his four-shot victory Sunday because he and Padraig Harrington were put on the clock at the par-5 16th. He said that caused Harrington to rush three difficult shots, leading to triple bogey.

European Tour chief referee John Paramor told Woods and Harrington they were being timed.

Woods said he told Harrington after it was over, “I’m sorry that John got in the way of a great battle.”

Paramor said the final pairing was well behind most of the back nine, but officials gave them time to catch up. They were still 17 minutes out of position on the 16th tee, when they were put on the clock.

Actually I don't see how Tiger's comments were disparaging to the officials... but that's jmo...

[dinojen]

Thursday's tee times and pairings..

http://www.thegolfchannel.com/core.aspx?page=19301&select=31245

Tiger, Padrig (lol.. they have to love it ) and Rich Beem will tee off at 8:35 on the back nine...

Another great weekend of golf.. yes I am in heaven...:wub:

dinojen, I couldn't agree with you more ! What a class act Tiger showed himself to be !

[dinojen]

Woods' criticism shows deep respect for Harrington
Tiger Woods wouldn't have sounded off after his victory at Firestone if he didn't think so highly of Padraig Harrington, says AP Golf Writer Doug Ferguson. The two great friends and rivals will tee it up together again on Thursday and Friday.


HASKA, Minn. (AP) -- Tiger Woods didn’t take much time to celebrate his 70th career victory on the PGA Tour, and not just because he was on Hazeltine National at dawn Monday to get ready for the PGA Championship.

Woods, so careful to avoid controversy throughout his career, stepped out of character after winning the World Golf Championships-Bridgestone Invitational.

One question into his interview, he shifted attention away from his late heroics at Firestone -- an 8-iron from 178 yards over the water that stopped a foot from the hole for birdie -- by blaming the anticlimactic finish on a rules official.

Woods was perturbed that he and Padraig Harrington were put on the clock at the pivotal 16th hole Sunday, and suggested that Harrington was rushed into three poor shots that led to triple bogey. What had been one of the most compelling duels of the year gave way to another inevitable Woods victory.

Not only did Woods identify the rules official -- European Tour Chief Referee John Paramor -- he later shared with the media what he told Harrington on the 18th green.

“Like I was telling him out there, ‘I’m sorry that John got in the way of a great battle,’ because it was such a great battle for 16 holes, and we’re going at it head-to-head, and unfortunately that happened.”




Hope they have a great round on Thursday... can't wait... love that they are teamed together and with Rich Beem too...:thumbsup:

Tiger really must of been piffed because usually he doesn't make controversial statements or get in the mix as others do.. so this must of really irked him...lol

[Celebration]

Just watched an interview of Tiger.

Tiger says that, contrary to news reports, there was no fine.

Yeah I read that earlier today.. either he was being kind or they decided not to fine him...

Can't wait for Thursday.. Tiger and Padrig and Rich Beem.. what a great threesome..:thumbsup:

Thanks so much for telling me about that site! I did open a window for it today and saw that late tee time ~ which was good so that I didn't have to keep track of him during the morning. :biggrin: I see our man is leading by 4 strokes going into the weekend!!! :thumbsup:

Yes he is... lol... he's at 7 under...

Just finished watching... damn Paddy missed his putt and he would of been playing with Tiger again tomorrow.. but he's at 3 under and I think Vijay was in the clubhouse with a 3 under sooner... so he might be paired with Tiger tomorrow..

He has a nice lead... love it... going to be fun tomorrow.

I think the way it goes is the first one in the clubhouse at -3 will be paired with him ~ so I think you're right, it'd be Vijay. It'll be fun!! :thumbsup:

[HansieDZ]

Let's hope they get to play :sad:

[dinojen]

Thanks.

[Celebration]

[sunstar]

Hi everybody! :seeya: I'm watching the early coverage on TNT right now and they're showing a lot of Phil who's at +8 right now. At least the weather doesn't look too bad so it should be a great day!!

[dinojen]

Just got back from the store with hubby... got the remote set for Nascar and golf.. and I'm ready... The race is delayed due to sprinkles.. let's hope it doesn't play havoc with our golf.

Will be interesting to see how Yang deals with the crowds that Tiger attracts..

Let's go... it's almost time...:thumbsup:

Hi dinojen!! :seeya: It started raining at the golf course a little while ago but that won't bother our Tiger!! I turned the race on a few minutes ago until it started raining there and then turned the golf back on to see Tiger. :biggrin:

[dinojen]

I smell a birdie on Tiger's first hole...:wink:

[dinojen]

Won't say that again today....lol

Can you see the crowds.. they are unbelievable:biggrin: HUGE

[sunstar]

It's ok, Tiger will get his birdie on another hole! At least Yang doesn't seem to mind playing with the best! :biggrin:

Getting a little too crowded for me at the top of the leaderboard:angry:

Tiger needs to shift into another gear....lol...

Well it's between Yang and Woods looks like... what the heck happened to Padrig.. went to do something in the kitchen and came back and everything went kaplooie..

Have no fear ~ Tiger is on the green! :biggrin: Padraig's ball went into the water on that hole.

[sunstar]

They both missed their birdie putts. :scared:

[HansieDZ]

Yikes!
My heart was in my throat when Yang's putt came within an inch of the hole for the outright lead!

Tiger's putter is MIA today :sad:

[dinojen]

On the green in two... come on Tiger.. putt that puppy in...:beer:

[sunstar]

On the green in two... come on Tiger.. putt that puppy in...:beer:

He did!!! :thumbsup:

[HansieDZ]

Now they're back to being co-leaders again! :scared: What's wrong with the putter, Tiger???

[dinojen]

Whew-Tiger's got the lead again.

It's waaaay closer than I thought it would be!
:w00t:

Not anymore..they are tied again... this forced me to make myself a alcoholic beverage....:tonguewag:

6 holes left... he can do it...

Yang just went in a deep deep trap...

Now is Tiger's time to nail it...:thumbsup:

[dinojen]

Where the hello did Yang come from....lol.... never even heard of this guy before... I give him kudo's for playing as well as he has with the crowds that are there today and the media... unbelievable... Tiger is use to it... but some of these others.. have no idea what he deals with every tournament he plays in.

Nice bunker shot for Yang.. could of been worse...

Going to start singing tweet tweet tweet tweet and crossing my fingers...
Hole high.. no work that putter Tiger...

[dinojen]

What is with his putter... geesh louise...:angry:

Still co-leaders...

This is not how I was expecting it to be today... I wanted it close... but not this darn close...

The ONLY way I'll take a playoff is if Tiger is guaranteed to win :wink:

[dinojen]

OMG.. I am so glad you and Hanzie are here... I couldn't handle this alone...lol... I can't believe it.. I thought it would be a little difficult.. this is a freaking battle today... I'm like... :scared:

Credit to Yang.. he's playing great... but but but ....

[HansieDZ]

Oh please don't bite your nails!!! :laugh: Tiger will get it together before it ends!!

Is Tiger pulling a Phil on us?:glare:

His putting is very unreliable right now.
I'm just praying that Y.E. is feeling the PRESSURE of where he's at and what's at stake...
and HE pulls a Philly on us....

I'm bad!

Do you think his nerves are getting to him?

I'm hoping so!

[dinojen]

I'm not even going to think about taking my blood pressure right now... I can't believe it has come down to this.. I'm in shock....

Unfrigginbelivable...... maybe someone switched Tiger's putter...lol

[dinojen]

:crying: it's all I can say...

[sunstar]

Hmmmmmmm ~ Yang's on the 18th green not far from the hole and Tiger's in the rough off the green. :scared:

[sunstar]

:crying: it's all I can say...

I know :sad: but I really have to hand it to Yang for not folding up playing with Tiger especially in a major! He's about the only one who hasn't!

[dinojen]

Hmmmmmmm ~ Yang's on the 18th green not far from the hole and Tiger's in the rough off the green. :scared:

Face it.. Tiger has to hole it... or it's over.....:crying:

Sonuvagun.

Who'd a thunk it?

Y.E. was fierce today!

History,folks :ohmy:

Tiger definitely needs a new putter! :sad:

[dinojen]

Oh well... life goes on...

Did Tiger even speak to the media afterwards? My mom called me to rub it in and see what a poor sport I was being...lol.

Congrats to Yang... it's a win he can treasure..

I'm still in shock...

Nope ~ he went right into the clubhouse. Yang sure looked happy holding that big trophy!!! :biggrin: You know I was cheering for Tiger too but he just didn't play well enough.

[sunstar]

I ddidn't see anyone try to interview him. You know he would be articulate and gracious, I don't imagine he would want to take any attention away from Mr. Yeng for awhile. Let him enjoy it.
It would be too bad to have the very 1st asian man win - and have it seem as though all we want is to hear from Tiger.

I think that's probably why he didn't give an interview. The moment belongs to Yang. :smile:

Tiger had a very nice interview on the Golf Channel. In fact, they are analysising the round right now. Nick Noblo thinks that "Tiger thought everyone would fold" so this could be a blessing in disguise. I don't know but all this "changing the swing stuff" does not appear to have helped his game. Congrats Y E Yang. Becha Mr Yang will be playing Tiger in the President's Cup.

Tiger has always been gracious.. and I'm sure he is happy for what Mr. Yang accomplished today...

Tiger had a great week of golf, just like Padrig did until today... it just wasn't it their golf bag today...

I have never seen Tiger miss some many putts by mini inches.. but I will say congrats to Yang.. he held up to the pressure of playing with golf's best.. which isn't easy to do with the media and the crowds.. he did good.

Next time Tiger... :beer:

I just turned on the golf channel but missed his interview. I bet you're right about the President's Cup though!!

Yep his putter really let him down today.. and that's a shock.. he usually has them zero'd in... but hey that's the way the ball rolls...

Agreed.
His putter let him down today.

So what did we learn?
That Tiger Woods is human after all?

Dang it-I thought he wore a red cape and leapt tall buildings in a single bound! :wink:

(he still does in my books)

Gotta give it up to Y.E. Yang-he played lights out and deserved to win.
I bet we see Tiger hoist a trophy again before his careeer is over.....

I'm listening to them talk on Golf channel and they just said it was this same course where he blew it on the back 9 before and finished as a runner-up. I hadn't realized that!

I have been reading the blog at the Golf news. Many people have written in calling Tiger a poor sport. I thought that myself when he stormed off 18. Not collecting his second place plate and standing with Yang to give his congradulations was very tacky, in my opinion. Tom Watson stood shoulder to shoulder with Cink after his heartbreaking lost in the British Open. I was sad to see such poor sportsmenship on Tiger's part.

I look at it two ways.. yes I know many people say it showed poor sportsmanship.. he did multiple interviews after.. was very gracious to Yang on the 18th green.. and if Tiger would of shown for the awards ceremony .. I honestly think it would of taken away from Yang.. it was his time to celebrate and for have it be about him.. quite possibly Tiger thought it best he wasn't there.. for it to be Yang's moment..

JMHO


Actually need to edit this a tad..

He warmly congratulated Yang on the 18th green..then went through the entire post-match interview process and answered all the questions, giving Yang credit for making big shots on 13 and 14 to turn the match around, and stating accurately that he putted horribly. His interview was carried live on Golf Channel and ESPN News. What CBS said was they had hoped to grab him before they had to go off the air, but he had gone into the scoring trailer to sign his card - just like Yang did, then went right into the press tent and did his interviews. You can see the interview all over the web.

Oh by the way... if I recall there is no second place trophy at the PGA Championship.. The British Open is the only tournament that gives a second place trophy... so why should Tiger of been there...

Check out post #209. I though, at the time that Tiger was extremely ungracious on the 18th with Yang. Particulary in not putting out and letting Yang have the last putt, which so many others have done for Tiger in his wins. Actually, I don't know if there is a second place trophy but numerous people have posted on the Golf blog that there is one.

Didn't mean to sound snarky.. and I do apologize.. if I did.

There are many reasons why they putt in the order they do.. why Tiger went first I have no idea.. maybe Yang gave him the nod to do so.. maybe not.. I have never seen Tiger be arrogant or ungracious on the course.. but then again that is just my opinion. I watched him shake hands with Yang.. congratulate him and speak very highly of him in many interviews afterwards..

There is only one PGA Major tournament that gives out more than one trophy and that is the British Open. All the other majors, the Master's in April... one trophy.. the US Open in June.. one trophy.. the British Open in July gives a silver plate to the second place winner and also a medallion to the top amateur..the PGA the fourth weekend after the US Open.. gives one trophy known as the Wanamaker..actually the winner gets a replica.. a smaller version.. they don't actually get the real Wanamaker tropy.. ( a little bit of history)

Many people have different opinions.. some like Tiger.. some don't.. and of course will find anything he does in a negative way. I think he handled his loss very well.. congratulated the winner and gave him his own time on the 18th green accepting his award.. with no interference my Tiger Woods being there. It was Yang's win and his time to celebrate, was not necessary for Tiger to be there.

President's Cup yes.. it's in my backyard.. wish I could go.. but knee limitations are putting the kibosh on that.. Harding Park, a gorgeous course right by the Pacific Ocean.. I would so love to walk that course.. and yes Yang and Woods will meet again.. as I'm sure they will again and again...

Thanks for the apology. Yes, the President's Cup will be great. Hope Greg pick KJ Choi to play too. Any idea what the caddie's were "discussing" on 16?

God only knows... being Yang doesn't speak English could of been anything.

I didn't know this but the women on the LPGA have to be able to speak English.. the rule isn't the same on the PGA.. go figure... could of been about the hole.. I honestly don't know.

Above link about LPGA making players speak basic English...

I didn't have a clue about that rule until this weekend... weird huh.





Hey thought of one more thing about this trophy bruhahaha... think of all the other majors.. there is not one except for the British Open that the runner up or second place finisher is there at the awards ceremony.. just watched several tapes of past award presentations.. the runner up is never there except for the British Open... hadn't even really thought about it till it was made an issue of after this weekend.
