Tiger Woods headed to Greensboro for Wyndham Championship
Tiger Woods, coming off missed cuts at the U.S. and British Open, was among the early starters. He had nine birdies, his most in 347 major rounds.
Streb is a guy who I don’t feel gets the credit he deserves.
That almost certainly won’t happen at Whistling Straits, where Woods was at 4 over, tied for 89th, with five holes to play when a storm hit Friday afternoon and suspended the second round. He admitted to a lack of consistency but said that having entered only 10 events in 2015, “I’m pleased with the way I’m striking the ball”.
With the cut expected to fall at two over, Woods will probably have to pick up at least two shots to make it into the weekend.
When he was asked what he figured out, Woods said it was just his setup. To have the control that I need to have going forward, it’s starting to come back. Sabbatini hasn’t made a cut in a major since the 2011 PGA. And already David Lingmerth with an early tee time has overtaken the first position.
“A couple of days in a row where I haven’t finished the round the way I wanted to”, said McIlroy, who followed a double bogey at the 18th hole with a chip-in eagle at No. 2.
Dave Winfield was 39 years old when he hit for the cycle while playing for the California Angels on June 24, 1991.
If he says the only way to get more consistent is by playing, then why would he not play? He lost his ability to make miracle shots.
Woods had indicated that without a solid showing here to boost his bid to qualify for the US PGA Tour’s FedEx Cup playoffs, his US season was likely over.
Should the 39-year-old not rally today he will miss the cut in a major for a third straight and for the fourth time in the last five.
“No, it’s not really about the season, it’s about the year”.
Moments after missing the cut Saturday at the PGA Championship, he insisted he is. Duval, who now works primarily as an analyst for the Golf Channel, believes that the Donald Ross course, which at 7,070 yards is short by modern standards, could be just what he needs as he continues to hone the swing he has developed under Chris Como. It was the first clue something wasn’t right in his world. His putting generally is not great, and pro golfers generally do not suddenly get better at putting after their 40th birthday, something Woods will celebrate December 30.
It wasn’t so much that he hit just seven fairways and 12 greens or that he constantly left himself birdie putts that were so far from the hole that he needed a minute or two to get from his ball to the flagstick. I finally rolled the ball coming in and unfortunately it was too little, too late.
Tiger Woods shot 75 in the first round of the PGA Championship.
Which is why the development at Whistling Straits in the PGA Championship is bad news for New Jersey and, especially, for The Barclays.
“Season or year?” he said.
Woods was looking to create a place close to his home in Jupiter, Florida, where he could hang out, have a good meal, and watch sports, all in his neighborhood. “And I still have plenty of golf to be played for the rest of the year … on a global level”. And his Hero World Challenge is moving this year to The Bahamas.
