Imagine if the final group comes to the last hole tied and Young Ricky stiffs his approach on 18 and Tiger skulls it into the drink.

And both lose by 7+ strokes to John Huh so it doesn't matter.

Serious question. Has Fowler ever broken 75 when paired with TW? I can only remember a couple rounds, none of them good.

........

Also, GOAT.

Harig article says only two times they have played together Fowler shot 77 and 84, getting beat by a combined 26 shots.

Three guys 2 back, five guys 3 back, two guys 4 back, and Tiger's line is anywhere from -187 to -300. LOL

Well, and this is an open query for anybody, what percentage of the time do you think Tiger wins?

"Woods owns a 51–4 record when holding at least a share of the lead after 54 holes, and 40–2 record when holding the outright lead."

Historically over 95%; I'd put it at 85-90% in today's tiger world (intimidation factor is diminished…maybe not for Rose though lol)


Your thoughts Bo?

Your thoughts Bo?
If this was 5 years ago I'd take -200 in a heartbeat.

But it's quite different these days. As you said intimidation factor is diminished, significantly IMO. And while Tiger is playing well at present, he's proven over the last year that a bad round can (and has) cropped up at any time. His stumble to the finish at Doral absolutely would not have happened 5 years ago regardless of how many strokes he was ahead.

Also, Bay Hill has shown this week that low scores are out there. So there's no telling who could throw a 65 up there and make things difficult.

I wouldn't be surprised tomorrow if Tigers runs away and hides. I wouldn't be surprised if Tiger plays poorly. I wouldn't be surprised if someone comes from behind and catches him.

-300 is stealing from the public, I'd take even odds for sure but not certain if I'd go any higher.

It's definitely an interesting exercise, but always remember why the books come out ahead the vast majority of the time.

I haven't checked, but are we certain that tiger NEVER dropped a few shots on the back side pre 2009 when he was up be a million?

What percentage of the time does BO make a condescending post next? Don't worry, he had me on ignore so be wont see this and the integrity of my query will be upheld

I'd start taking small bets at - 400

Tiger to win is - 194
Tiger to lose is +178

At even odds, based on Kelly Criterion I bet you should be betting a huge chunk of your gambling bankroll

I will say that this extended coverage on Golf Channel has been nice.

Rarely get to see the first few holes in a non-major and it's pretty cool to get to see the whole course.

I remember going to the Memorial a few years ago and I had no clue what holes 1-4 looked like because they never made it on TV!

Anyone else have difficulties series recording NBC's PGA Tour airings?

Every ****ing weekend I hit series record on NBC and every weekend I check it and it's not series recording and I have to remember to record it or else I'm ****ed if I go out and run errands.

Golf Channel and CBS work just fine. **** you NBC
