Hey KG, we got a US Open thread... :P

This thread never dies until Tiger wins another Major as the Haters are not satisfied with PGA wins. :)

Good one Tiger... lol

"There's so much sand in these bunkers. There's just a lot of sand in them. My 60 [degree wedge] is not built for this much sand ... so I have to make an adjustment and hit the ball a little bit closer."

He's -2 thru 16 today for a total of -1 so far... obviously shot +1 yesterday.

Watch out for that sand in the sand traps... ;)

In b4 KG gloats... :P

Tiger putted well this weekend and Van Pelt messed up 17 and couldn't do it on 18.

...so... does this thread keep popping up when Tiger has a good week.... then disappears for a couple years?

I just have a hard time figuring out why people cheer for an asshole that couldn't care less if they were in the gallery or not? Unfirendly, unapproachable, uncaring, cursing, throwing clubs...

So why is it all you dads take your kids to go see this guy again? Sportsmanship? Friendly?

[Dpantherman]

Michael Jordan is one of the most arrogant assholes in the history of sports. But guess what, he is an all time great.

On court/field vs. off. People cheer greatness despite guy's personal flaws. And despite what anyone thinks of Tiger personally, he is still of the greatest folders to ever do it. It's a fact. That's why he will always have fans

[Anybodyhome]

I'd rather my life be remembered for my generosity, my genuine enjoyment of life, my care and concern for my family and friends and what kind of impact I had on those who's lives I was a part of....

Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods will pass on in their later years and the only thing to be said about either will be ancient history- the things they accomplished in their 20'3 and 30's...

[Dpantherman]

You asked a question, and I gave you a straight up answer. There are some good guys in sports that are also great. There are also some assholes that are great too. Not saying whats right or wrong, but thats the way it is.

[Darth Biscuit]

I bumped it this time messing with Kevin Greene... And I'm certainly no Tiger fan.

Tiger is an asshole for sure, but he has his moments... I dislike the coverage he gets moreso than him.

[Dpantherman]

I do the same with guys like Tom Brady and Tony Romo. moreso Tom because he is a douche but he's won championships. Tony Romo is just a douche who's won absolutely nothing.

[Darth Biscuit]

Like and pie for that one... Brady is a douche... Tiger's not so much a douche, asshole fits him perfectly. I don't think he tries to be an asshole... he just so wants to be perfect on the course, it comes off as asshole to people. You can be a good golfer, the best even, and not be a dick on the course.

I liked the fact that he went out of his way to shake the hands of those servicemen on the course yesterday, that was classy. Now if he'd act like that to the fans more often I would like him a lot more.

So here is the question, will Tiger be number one in the world again if he wins the British? Keep in mind ole Mac has no wins this year, Tiger now has three...thoughts

Mac = McIlroy?

I'm sure if Tiger wins a major, he'll jump to #1. I honestly don't know how the golf rankings are figured... it's somewhat of a mystery to me. Rory has not had a good year, he's missed several cuts. I think one of the criticisms I've heard about the rankings is that it takes too far into the past into account.

Remember two years ago when Tiger wasn't even playing, he stayed atop the rankings for a long time.

I honestly don't know how the golf rankings are figured... it's somewhat of a mystery to me...Me and you agree on this point, it seems they look at the book of work over a number of years rather than the season....but if that is the case why the H is Phil not ranked any higher?

Do you think his game is back.....I was questioning it but then I thought about something, out of 7 tournaments he has entered this year, he has won three...that is pretty strong..
