Tiger returning to Firestone

[anonymous golfaholic]

Will he finish higher than last place?

Make the cut, early tee time Sat and Sun.

There is no cut this week. I agree though.

There is no cut this week.

So THAT'S why he's playing!

I'm sure he chose this week for the "no cut" reason, that way he is assured of getting 4 competitive rounds in.

I don't know where he will finish, don't really care either, I'm just glad he's back. Golf just isnt as interesting without him.

I think the only reason he entered the Firestone is he still needs a couple of new front tires for a banged up Cadillac Escalade.

Plus, there are at least 4 Perkins within a 50 mile radius.

I think he plays well enough to be on the leaderboard.

My co-worker put the over/under at 7th place. I took the over with a T16 finish.

don't forget, he likes this golf course too, won 7 times I think? If his knee is good, he might very well contend. We will see what kind of start he gets on Thursday.

Well, Day 1 was a respectible -2 for Tiger, but it could have easily been +1 had he not drained 3 very long putts for par. The guys that shot 62 and 63, wow, amazing golf. Tiger's playing catch up. but so are a lot of other guys.

Tiger's stinking up the course progressively worse each day. He's nowhere near competitive yet....

Not to be a Fisher-tater, but he is currently tied with Mickelson, and big Phil doesn't have an excuse. If he was putting like old Tiger, he would be a lot closer.

I think he is def near competitive, maybe not from his old standars or what we are used to, but for a 3-4 month layoff he's def playing well imo.

Ok 37th this week. I see him retiring from the next Major after 18 holes after having a similar start from this week with no fairway after the first 11 holes, arguing his injury is back....
