Hi, guys. It was reported elsewhere that Jesper had a hip or similar muscle problem. You could see it in the way he was walking. That's not an excuse, to me, because it means a lack of training, or tenseness, but it's the explanation.

And I just read a lot of posts here, and don't see one on Tiger using the Nike Tour Accuracy. When playing 18 in the 4th round, he also was positioning the marketing of the ball; what would it represent if he hit it in the rocks again? With profit participation being negotiated, and maybe $7 to $14 m per year on the line, even if it was a 1/18 chance of pulling the driver, it made sense to use the iron.

For that matter, I agree that TW thinks he will have plenty of opportunities to top Jack's records, and was subliminally or otherwise OK with not making the putt on 18.

Also, did anyone notice his restrained language when he hit his shot on 16 (I think it was the tee shot that caught the first cut, but it may have been the approach that went long)?
