So after posting a -1 yesterday with 5 birdies / 4 bogeys, Tiger’s in the morning grouping today.

Tiger just finished his round, bogeyed 18. Shot a -3 (68) with 4 birdies / 1 bogey. Tied for the lead at -4.

Temp in the 40’s to start this morning, MONSTER crowds following him.

Hope he can maintain. He has trouble being consistent.

He was very consistent at the Farmers and Honda, had only 1 off round at the Hero. Thinking he may be on the cusp of being what he was before (except 10 years older, so never at that level again).

What's important is that it's cold down in Fla..and he is swinging with absolutely NO pain. He has been able to practice with NO pain. The tour had best take notice...his issues the past 5 years had to do with him being unable to practice without pain issues. Again, he is rusty so putting 4 full rounds together is still an issue...but he is playing pain free it's only a matter of time. And I think it would be great for the tour.

You’re kind of unclear on the whole pain thing.
 
Sure, he probably won’t win this week.

But considering his several years of injuries and surgeries and that he could barely get out of bed or walk 6-9 months ago, he is playing some incredibly good golf. And he continues to get better week by week.
I'm going to be in Florida next week. Might have to check Arnold Palmer Invitational out. Never been to a PGA Event. It's only 60 bucks for a day pass.

Anyone notice the pace of play with pairs as opposed to threesomes? Huge difference. Rounds today were over in 4 hours, not 5 or 6.

I will never understand why their is so maniacs about woods. The man is a cheater in golf (PEDs) and life (family). He is a sleaze in very way.

I'm not sure how much PED's can help you in golf. How many successful golfers have you seen who are truly yoked?

Please link actual, definitive proof that Woods used PEDs.

As far as cheating on his wife, are you a fan of Jordan, Barkley and thousands of other noted persons? How about some of your friends, neighbors, religious leaders, yourself? How dare you hold a stranger up to your personal ‘standards’.

Finger-pointers make me suspicious.

Woods was with Dr. Gilea with A-Rod. Tiger's body basically fell apart (another PEDs outcome). I wouldn't admire that kind of behavior from anyone
 
Tiger registered the fastest swing speed all year on the PGA tour. Not DJ, not Rory, not Bubba....42 year old tiger with a fused back with 129.2 mph swing speed on 14 hole tee shot. Look out, gonna be an exciting year of golf.
