Stricker was nipping at Tiger's heels but couldn't catch up. The ironic thing is that Stricker gave Tiger some putting tips during the week. Heading into next month's Masters, great putting like that bodes well. Vegas has Tiger at 4-1 to win in Augusta.

Tiger Woods official World #1
I started this thread questioning why Tiger Woods was #1. I saw him lose the ranking, and now I've personally witnessed him earn it back. What a ride...

Tiger got a raw deal from the golf gods (the pin strike that went into the water, and the 2 stroke penalty that never would have happened). That's a 3 or 4 stroke loss just due to bad luck. He's still the favorite heading into the rest of the season.

Hated that Tiger didn't make the trip to Charlotte for the Wells Fargo. Still a great field though, and Mickelson was there. Went to the Tuesday practice round and managed an autograph on my spectator guide from Lee Westwood. Real nice guy, he actually thanked me!

Maybe so, he's still a rookie and he bested a talented field. I did put a dollar on him at Bovada though, Saturday in-game at 40-1. He hit a nice birdie putt to get within a stroke of the lead and I figured it was worth a try. odds went back to something like 25-1 shortly thereafter.

Tiger wins TPC
Tiger Woods reinforced his #1 world rank with a dramatic finish at the TPC. I was hoping Sergio Garcia would match Tiger and force a playoff - wasn't meant to be. None doubting the 'return' of Tiger, he's the man.

TIGER is a boss!!! What an epic choke by Sergio, and lets not forget about Jeff Maggert. 49 year old who hasn't done well in the PGA tour since 2006 gets 2nd place for over 700k. He did this by getting a birdie on 18, after choking big time for a double bogey on 17. That's a feel good story.

Tiger/Sergio feud
I know everyone's saying Sergio choked, but he was going for the pin on a green that leaves little room for error. That's in his defense, but I won't take his side in the other issue. He blamed Tiger for the crowd reaction that apparently bothered him on their near simultaneous swing fiasco. Sergio's only a victim of not shooting a low enough score to win. He's got plenty of years left to make up for it, so get cracking.

He painted himself into a corner after the first hit the water and had to take second to stay close but I commend him for going for it all...no guts no glory...plus how great would it have been to birdie that hole and end up sticking it to Tiger

Yeah, I agree. He was in position to win and went for it. 17 at Sawgrass ate him up as it has a lot of others. I wanted a dramatic finale, one with Tiger and Sergio in a photo finish would have been incredible. Still, a lot of drama to witness and some great golf overall.

Tiger/Sergio no apologies coming
Wow, Sergio with more harsh words for Tiger. I really wish Sergio's first shot on 17 hand landed dry - we were robbed of extra drama. Could have let sleeping dogs lie, so to speak. But now I just want to see a bunch of tournaments with these two atop the leaderboard - no drama lost, huh?

Tiger Woods Back Nine 44
Wow, no idea what happened to Tiger but he just posted a back nine 44 at The Memorial. It was like he was just screwing around with the putter at the end of it, like he almost didn't care. Did I miss something?

Yep, time to ratchet up the drama again. It's always interesting to see how much the PGA manipulates a US Open course as well.

I can't wait!
Grown men & their drama filled lives ... how lame.
The worst part about it is that this is drama on the job. What ever happened to true business men?
