Tiger Woods

[JB]

Not sure how many golf fans we have here, but what this man just did on the back nine at the US Open defies anything I've ever seen. No competitive golf for Tiger since April, coming off knee surgery and providing drama like that? Unreal. All this while he was in obvious pain.

I have never seen someone miss so many fairways, only to come back and make long clutch putt after long clutch putt.

The guy is otherworldy.

I noticed he was favoring his knee.

I'm not watching, but I hear all sorts of exclaimations of praise, awe, admiration and astonishment coming from the other room.

I have watched Tiger for years and never seen anything like it! That first long putt he made reminded me of when Ben Crenshaw won the Masters. Then he went and chipped that one off the pin AND added that crazy putt on 18 ... I wish I could have seen a view of what he was seeing on that one. Even Johnny Miller didn't know what he was doing. When Tiger brings it, there are few things more fun to watch.

I noticed he was favoring his knee.

I have never heard "torque" used in a broadcast before. But he looked like he was putting a torquing on that left knee. Ouch!

I know he is the best there ever was, but I didn't expect what he did today. It would be hard to believe if we didn't get to see it ourselves in prime time. I don't know if his mind is the best in sports, but it has to be one of the top five.

What are we in for on Sunday????????????

It was something just to watch it today.He can make that ball go places I've never seen others do. Even back at the masters this year,he was having a bad weekend,and came in 2nd!

Tiger. I don't think golfers should wear green. OTHER than the green blazer. Phil was blending in a little too much yesterday.

Tiger is awesome. It was clear that his knee was hurting him, but he played through the pain.

Hubby (Big D) is a big golfer. He was on the Tulane golf and basketball teams and received offers to play pro golf and pro football, but decided to use his brains instead of this brawn and got a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering. He says that a golf swing works virtually every muscle and joint in your body. If one part is out, it affects your entire game. He was amazed by Tiger today.
