Golf, Video March 30th. 2009, 9:45amSixteen footer for the win … it’s good! El Tigre wins! Tiger wins! It was the second most clutch moment of the weekend, after Scottie Reynolds, of course.

Did anyone, anywhere have any doubt that putt was going in on 18 yesterday? I would have loved to have seen Vegas odds on that putt. What? 1/10?

Tiger is the best guy I’ve even seen playing any game/sport. It’s unreal.
I’ve been watching sports forever, and I’ve never been a frontrunner, but I love this guy. To wit, I haven’t seen on second of golf since that last Monday in June.

Tiger Woods and Robert Horry in the same sentence? Blasphemy!
March 30th, 2009 at 9:57 am
yea, i did.
that putt was so fucking hard…the grain was pulling it to the left and the slope was taking it right. 99.9% of pros would’ve read that as breaking right and missed on the high side…but when you’ve won 6 times at the same course, i guess you know what’s going on.
tiger is the best.

will the “get in the hole” bullshit ever stop. im pretty sure someone yelled it on his practice strokes before he backed off and checked out the green. there should be an executioner on hand for these people.

will the “get in the hole†bullshit ever stop?
Just be glad “You ‘da man” died a horrific death and the John 3:16 guy afro guy went batshit and is re-enacting the Shawshank Redemption for the rest of his life

no, but one thing that should NEVER happen again is that asshole who yelled “GET IN THE WATER” on phil’s last drive at doral. that’s just being a straight up asshole…there’s no room for that in golf.
/start the “golfers are pussies” shit if you must…just let me continue to wish for at least ONE professional sport/game that has a little dignity and respect left

so i guess Sergio winning the 5th most prestigious event in the world, The Players, last year was a figment of my imagination?
March 30th, 2009 at 10:59 am
Seriously. How about as clutch as MJ TBL.

No, but 7 PGA Tour wins out of 182 events played in 10+ years is a pretty sad achievement, considering what was expected he might be capable of when he appeared out of the blue at the 99 PGA
Player/Wins/Events
Tiger 66/239
Phil 36/390
Vijay 34/410
Furyk 13/394 (1 US Open, Mercedes, Memorial)
Sergio 7/182 (1 TPC)
* I put Furyk is as a “double” of Sergio for comparison
March 30th, 2009 at 11:24 am
phil, vijay, and furyk have all been on the tour 2x as long as sergio and NO FUCKING WAY is a benz or memorial even anywhere close to being as big of a win as a Players win is.
and where are the international wins included in there? they count too, right? and just because your expectations were raised doesnt mean that sergio is a disappointment…it’s common knowledge that golfers reach their prime in their early 30’s and sergio is only 29 and during those peak years is when they accrue their win totals.
cut him some slack, he still has a lot of time left.

We’ve had this argument here before about golfers needing absolute silence to hit a ball. It’s one of the many reasons why golf is not an athletic “sport.”
March 30th, 2009 at 12:02 pm
I am the biggest Robert Horry fan… and yet even *I* think it’s blasphemy to put Horry in Tiger’s class.
Then again… Horry only got one shot at a “major” every year… Tiger gets 4. (7×4) is a hell of a lot of “majors”!

I know they are doubled. I said that about Furyk for extrapolation purposes, and he won an OPEN. Does that qualify as being better than a Players that he beat in a “down” year in terms of leaders competing (Paul Goydos? Briny Baird?). Stare down Tiger or Phil and it would go a long way in helping him.
and where are the international wins included in there? they count too, right?
Thomas Bjorn and Ian Poulter each have as many Euro Tour wins as Sergio. Would you say Sergio is better than them? Lee Westwood has 10 more Euro wins than Sergio. I could go on if you like.
You have as many excuses for Sergio as Sergio has for Sergio
March 30th, 2009 at 12:24 pm
THIS IS FUCKING RETARDED.
silence is there because it’s fucking consistent sound, not because of some other reason. golf is a game of precision unlike other professional sports, but even then, there’s always cheering and noise in the background, so it’s easy to focus and tune it out. golf just has silence, jesus christ.
March 30th, 2009 at 12:29 pm
bjorn, poulter and westwood primarily play on the Euro Tour, sergio splits his time.
sure tiger wasn’t there, but phil, adam scott, ernie els, and the rest of the top 65 were all there and in the field. he doesn’t get credit for beating all them? maybe if those guys were better, they would’ve been in contention to beat sergio that weekend.
all im saying is he’s still young and hasn’t hit his golfing prime yet, like phil, vijay and furyk all have and is reflected in their win totals. just because he’s been around for a decade doesn’t mean he’s not going to be around for another 20 years.
March 30th, 2009 at 12:36 pm
all im saying is he’s still young and hasn’t hit his golfing prime yet
spencer: Garcia is 29. If you consider that “young”, I must be a “guy” instead of an old man -lol. I know what you’re saying, and i would have bought it 5 years ago, but the clock is ticking and not as much was accomplished in those five years as everyone would have thought. That’s all.
we agree on just about everything else golf related, just not this. Not too bad
March 30th, 2009 at 12:38 pm
Spencer, while your defensiveness of Sergio is borderline ridiculous, don’t bother entering the golf isn’t a sport discussion. People who insist that golf isn’t an athletic sport fall into one of three categories…
1. They’ve never played a full 18 holes.
2. They don’t really believe it and they’re just baiting you.
3. Douchebags, whose opinions shouldn’t be of any concern.
March 30th, 2009 at 12:44 pm
jay…agreed completely.
jpq…29 is still young for a golfer. hogan, the guy who’s career path sergio seems to be following, didn’t start winning tourneys until he was in his early 30’s then it all clicked. sergio, like hogan, is an otherworldly ballstriker with a balky putter.
that said, sergio has sucked since january. im still a fan tho.

Bowling is as athletic as golf.
