The Tiger effect: why you don't want to be paired with Tiger on Sunday
Third round leader at +2 Aaron Baddeley shot 80 yesterday in the final round of the U.S. Open. Stuart Appleby, third rounder leader at +2 at the Masters, shot 75. What do they have in common? Both played with Tiger Woods and played horribly. It's understandable, though, because the media and fan attention that Tiger draws--not to mention the intimidation factor--has to be a little nerve-wracking.
Come to think of it: The only person who I can remember ever playing well in Tiger Woods's group on Sunday in a final pairing was Hal Sutton, who defeated Tiger, head to head, at the Players.
