By the way, I can't work out what the black tape on his sleeve was supposed to be covering. Generally you don't find any other sponsorship on the clothes of a Nike sponsored player. My mind boggles about what the black tape was covering ...

Couple of things come to mind.

1. No way Tiger wins
2. Vonn can't hold a candle to Elin, makes me wonder if Elin was a cold fish?

3. I want a covert i can glue together! I'm not into the adjustable heads, but I like the look of the covert!

I saw that during his press conference. I wondered what that was. Why would he put tape on his shirt though? Why wouldn't he just wear a shirt without a logo?

Seriously. Pretty ghetto for a billionaire.
When the "Dream team" came together and played, Reebok did the jerseys. Jordan covered up the Reebok symbol because he was sponsored by Nike.

Don't know Tigers reason.

Phil & Tiger -2. The big surprise for me was that a bomber like Dustin Johnson handled the conditions well & is -3.

Charl had a bit of an emotional explosion ...
