| Tiger will need to make a pretty good charge today to have a chance. |

Sunday is going to be really interesting... I can't wait!

| That is one wicked golf course. I'd probably shoot a 150 on a course like that! Tiger is right back in the hunt. Should be quite a final round. | |

| Yeah, I've been watching it too. Tiger could win this! If he plays the same today, as he did yesterday, I think he will win by at least 1 stroke. It's very interesting to watch, and I can't wait to see who is victorious!
If I am ever in Oakmont, I would love to try my luck on that course. Looks like a course that I would like. Narrow, long, punishing..sounds great! I'll have to play after it rains, though..that course is wicked fast! | |

| With so many people within 5 shots, someone shooting a number like Paul Casey's 66 might have a chance, but I thing the course has gotten into all their heads.
As I write this, Tiger has just hit his opening Sunday drive smack into the 1st fairway. While I agree with 300yards' comment that if Tiger plays yesterday's round again today, he will win, I wonder if he concerns himself over his inability to win from behind?
I also wonder what Tiger would shoot if he wore a different color on Sunday?
Johnny Miller just said Tiger has never shot over par on Sunday when he's been in the final group... pretty intresting statistic...
OK gang - we'll talk in a few hours when this is over!

| Well, it looks like Cabrera won..congrats to him, it is a proud day for Argentina! I am quite disappointed with Tiger though..he EASILY had the oppurinity several times to pull in the lead, but he didn't seem to just run with it..his putting, and chipping is what killed him. Now, I know he made some good chips, but he just couldn't sink the putts when he needed to, so those chips really didn't mean much. If he could have sunk just ONE Birdie putt today, he would've won..I really wanted to see him win his 18th major..but I guess that'll have to wait til another day. today just wasn't his day..I'm sure his dad is proud anyway.

| Poor Baddely. He ended up at what, 7 shots off the lead? And he easily missed 7 putts by no more than an inch. And yeah, Tiger really didn't make much of a run for it at the end.

| Yeah, talk about a rocky start! I felt so bad for him when he tripled the first..By the look on Tigers' face, it looked as if he felt bad for him too! I think he was a little rattled form nerves, and having to watch Tiger hit that perfect first drive of his..he did good though, he hung in there for the longest time, but unfortunately, it just didn't work for him. The greens just weren't nice to him either..I was rooting for him to sink soem putts, but all my positive energy just didn't help him..oh well, better luck next time, Bad! | |

| Tiger lost the tourny on saturday, when he hit 17 gir's and only had 2 birdies.
he said in his post round interview, that on the bunker shot on 17, when he hit the ball, his wedge hit a pebble and that disrupted the ball enough to not give him enough spin so the ball would check on the green.
it was a fun tournament to watch, i just wish Tiger would have converted more putts on saturday and walked away with #13, with his kid about to be born, i doubt Tiger will be focused enough on golf to win the british or pga.
congrats to Cabrera, he earned his trophy.
