Phil is going crazy today in the last round and so is AK. Westwood is choking IMO. Freddy was there for awhile.

everytime I want to root for this guy, he chokes. He still got birdie but that putt was longer than his eagle putt.

Tiger needed to back away from that putt for par. Damn shame. The trip from birdie to bogey is a short one.

It was a great final round. Kim came on real strong, and if Phil hadn't hit that ridiculous shot on 13, I think Kim or Westwood would have won. Phil did everything right (no bogeys today). Tiger just needs to practice more to get it back. Not even he can jump back in and shred the course up again. 4th is higher than I thought he would do.

I'm becoming a big AK fan though. He plays like he's got nothing to lose. He could lose the belt buckle though...

My three favorites guys, Tiger, Phil and Kim all played great. I don't think people realized how big that time of was for Tiger. I am impressed. Phil and Kim get my love because they are balls to the wall with their game. They will both live and die by the chances they take but its so much fun to watch.

That gap didn't look big at all but Phil said the gap was bigger than people thought. He said it wasn't that difficult a shot.

Congrats to Phil for winning. I thought he was going to choke it away but he hung in there.

For Tiger to be in the top 5 after being off as long as he was speaks volumes about his game.

As for Phil, if he doesn't get those back-to-back eagles on Saturday, he's probably wouldn't have won. Those shots lit a fire in him.

Did anyone ask Phil about the twig that landed in front of his putt on the 2nd hole? I wonder if he even knew it happened, or what he thought about it. That was bizarre.

Somehow the moment was nicer to see Phil Mickelson, with his wife and mother battling breast cancer, enveloping the wife in a bearhug after winning the Masters, than any other outcome would have been.


Mickelson may never be considered as great a golfer as Tiger, but right now I certainly have much more respect for him as a person.

What about this part, lol:

The Tiger Woods/Dad commercial is downright creepy. If Nike's goal was to make viewers emote, they hit a home run. It's the wrong emoting, though. It's not "Awwww.'' It's "Yecchhhhh.''

I thought the commercial was pretty absurd, but I didn't find it creepy.
