    Default Tiger's Grand Slam 2008

    Watching him torch the field this weekend, I think this is the year that he wins the 4 majors. Faldo predicted this a couple of weeks ago.
    Right now I think its 20-1. Any thoughts on this. Anyone know what his odds were this past weekend?

    The way he finished up last year and started this weekend, it certainly is worth a look. The only real wild card in my mind is that I haven't looked to see where the British Open is this year where the bad weather really seems to affect his game.

    I didn't look at the odds for this past weekend - forgot there was even a tournament until I saw the scoreboard Friday and cussed that I hadn't even looked at it....

    this is the year i think he does it too. us open at torrey pines where he's won 5 times in his career and last 4 of the buick. the masters is the masters, and im sure that if he wins the first 3, pga championship will be like gold for him, the only one that concerns me in the british but tiger is definitely on top of his game right now. just coasting his way to 68-69s and not playing too aggressive. makes it look way to easy.

    This is what tiger had to say after his round...sounds more like Micelli and I discussing what we did wrong on the local Muni...btw he shot 71

    "Yesterday was terrible. I drove it like a dog yesterday. … I was disappointed the way I drove it today because I haven't been driving it like that. … Whether it was 5-wood, 3-wood or driver, I didn't drive it very good at all. … I had a low left ball or a spinny high right. Kind of hard to aim when you've got both of those things going. … I just overshaped them. … It was pretty embarrassing. I hit a terrible tee shot over to the right. …


    "I was really surprised at some of the shots I hit off the tees because I haven't been doing that. … I just have to hit the ball better than I'm hitting it right now. … I actually had a mis-hit and ended up OK. … Bladed my second one trying to keep it underneath the tree. It had a little happy face on it. …

    "I didn't have the speed of the greens early, kept running them by … I missed a short one at the second hole. …

    "Five was just a terrible shot. I laid the shaft down, got stuck, flipped it over there, hit it real short. … Six, I was trying to hit the ball short right of the hole, but not that short. … Seven, wind knocked it down. I thought I hit the ball middle of the green. I was just trying to play middle of the green. Just don't hit it over the green, and it came up well short. … And then eight, I chickened out on it because I was hitting a big hook, and I was thinking, 'Well, if this ball lands, it's going to be ripping across the green. Just don't hit it long.' I hit it short of the green. … On 15, I was trying to hit kind of a low cut, and to be honest with you, I hit it a little bit off the toe and hit kind of a low draw. …

    "I've gotten some pretty good breaks the past couple days, some pretty good lies in the rough … I got a lucky break, and it stayed up. … I got a couple of good bounces on the greens. …"
