Will Tiger Win The AT&T

So guys, another Tiger question?

Will he win this week?

Will he PLAY this week?

Or will he wait until the Open?

I will be there Friday, and hopefully Saturday too. Here in DC we are very excited about this tourny! But Tiger winning his own tourny would be a great accomplishment. I give him a 10% of winning, but a 75% chance of finishing in the top 10.

From what I saw, Congressional will be setup like the US open. Deep rough and fast greens. He came out here a week ago, played the course, and said the rough was not deep enough...let it grow.

Heh.

Tiger just had a kid. He's in no place to focus right now.

He'll be OK, but the domination won't start again until he's over the infatuation stage.

Would say of "most" of the tour blokes whose wives have just given birth within a couple of weeks of a tourney that they wouldn't even make the cut...

BUT...

We are talking about Tiger.

The emotional aspect will probably spur him on. Can't recall, and I'm sure someone will know, how did he go first event back after his father passed away..?

Cut certainly, top 10 probably, win unlikely.

But, again, this is Tiger we are talking about...

Cheers

Hope you're having a great day Greg... let us know how it went

And it was a perfect day. Cool, slight breeze and low humidity (80%) and that's low for DC this time.

I was able to follow Tiger his whole back 9 (holes 1-9). And walked stride for stride the whole way getting as close as I could and watched his entire game.

Here is what struck me that I don't get from TV: His actual pace. He is in a speed 1/4 slower then others. Everything he does, except walking to his ball, is about a quarter slower/more deliberate then everyone else. He stalks. It is quite interesting like a separate zone of reality he plays in.

Then his swing. All his practice swings are lazy and easy only taking the club to about a 1/2 hight...all big shoulder turn practice swings, never moving his hands...That's it. Then for the full shot, it is just a controlled explosion. Beautiful. He shot 66 that day. Should have been 64 with 2 medium length bird attempts that just squeaked by, but he made 3 birds on his last 3 for longer putts.
