Tiger Woods eagles last hole to gain outright lead at -3 -- GAME OVER
Today was the most dramatic and exciting round of golf I have ever seen Tiger Woods play, ever. If you missed it, you missed one for the ages. It was a sheer delight to watch. What made it dramatic was the fact that Tiger Woods was clearly limping, grimacing, and playing in serious pain. After the round he admitted that his knee is feeling worse. Also dramatic were the two huge down hill eagle putts--both with huge breaks, one from 65 feet--that Tiger sunk on the 13th and 18th, as well as the "lucky" chip in on 17, with the ball hopping in the hole on one bounce. The thousands of fans were all going nuts! Electrifying!
Tiger Woods has the flair for the dramatic. Every major he's won, he has had the lead or share of the lead after 54 holes. Well, today, with his eagle putt on 18, Tiger grabbed the outright lead over Lee Westwood at -2.
Game over.

Wow. What can I say but, Wow. After all those misses, chunked chips, easy putts ... wow. Just Wow. Even if his knee fails and he loses, Wow. One to remember.
Hmm, is it really LUCK, when your practice sessions beginning when you were 3 included hitting from improbably lies, when you purposely threw the balls into the rouch, behind trees, bushes, plaing them in the mud, from the side of a creek......
Is it really luck when you hole an improbable hop in birdie on the 17th hole, and yes you chuckle.????
Is it because, yes, even you thought you were lucky, or is it more, jesh..... This is when all the hard work pays off, how awesome is that????
Win, LOSE, or DRAW, on Father's Day 2oo8,
Tiger Woods is DA MAN...... Golf's Statesman sans pareille.... without equal, he's taken it to the next level...and then some.
I strongly disagree with "game over." With his knee, if he misses so many fairways, someone could easily beat him today. If he wins, it will definitely be in the top three of his wins, IMHO.
