Just thought I'd start a thread for discussion on the Match Play...matches, results, scoring, etc.

Here's your WARNING -- **SPOILER** -- etc.

muxi87
Okay, first post...

Looks like "Old Man Par" may have a chance in some of these matches.

At first glance over scorecards, AK is 4 up while at even par...Camilo is 3 up at two under...not a lot of birdies so far.

Is this course that much tougher than the one they used to play the Match Play on???

muxi87
well, appears I'm talking to myself, but I can't believe Anthony Kim just won 7 & 5....while shooting only 2 under!!!
Fore_Man
well, i'll bet the majority of us are DVRing it so we can watch when we get home... But good to here AK is moving on.

I agree...it doesn't televise til 2pm though, so I'm keeping up live til then russian_roulette.gif

To contrast what I was saying above, Kim won 7&5 at 2 under, Kenny Perry is AS through 10 while sitting at 3 under!!! Crazy game this match play can be--definitely my co-favorite non major of the year (along with the TPC).
Captain Nimrod
Westwood, Kim and Villegas are winners so far.

The course is playing to 7800 yards.....while not extremely challenging it is extremely long even by tour standards. Actually, I believe it's the longest course they'll play this year.

Looks like Phil is doing risk reward play.....

what website are you getting updates from? Seems like most of them are way behind on their updates...
Stenson
And we're off. Tiger sticks it to 7ft on the 1st. Here we go....

This sucks being at work. I wonder if Boo rode the bull off the first tee? He is playing an Englishman after all. I'm thinking Justin Rose doesn't realize he has wedges in his bag because he can't see them.

he's probably wondering if he has arms too!

I'm pulling for Boo big time in this match, is he still 3up?
Captain Nimrod
Jimenez takes down Sabbatini.
Stenson
Is he actually going to start birdie, eagle?
Dizzub
Is TW serious? Birdie at 1, stuffs it to ~5 feet from 238 on the par 5 2nd....unreal.
nikeboy16
WOW!!!!!!!!!

Tiger is the man
wholeinwon
Ya, Tiger isn't a bad golfer lol...

Welcome Back sir...good game PGA Tour in 2009.

Let's start up the Grand Slam in 2009 talk!!!! after 2 holes...
AcesAZ
Wow, I'm not a Tiger fan but as a golf fan thats impressive.
Michael_75
This could be a special round
j0npeterson
I wish Tiger would show a little more emotion.

He kinda has that weak, pissy face when he's hit his iron shots... but then he sticks it to 6 feet.

minitour
I want to see this new and improved short game!!!

Dizzub
What do you honestly think Jones is thinking right now? Probably something like "F#$% me."
littlepingman
Anyone know if there is a live stream of the tournament online?
PurePursuit

He's nervous! I'd be too!
golferallan
tigers bunker shot goes to about around 20 feet on a very tough bunker shot, jones has simple chip and basically blades outside of tiger..
frankgpass
Jones is just mis-hitting left and right.....I feel kind of bad....oh wait......it passed crazy.gif

Mickelson however....
golferallan
Mickelson up 3? with 4 to play and is now 1 up with 2 to play to cabrera.. phil is choking..
Konklifer
TGC will replay it at 7:30 tonight. I could install Veetle at work but then I may end up in the unemployment line.
golferallan

Phil was never accused of being a closer.

Man, I feel bad for Jones. He's so out of his element. It's like feeding him to the lions.


But hey, it makes for great TV. laugh.gif

is he making pars? or losing holes with bogies?
theelvis510
Just more time to play is how I see it.
elmaestro
Yeah, go to www.veetle.com and download the thing they offer (it's free and is in no way computer endangering, trust from me my computer is beat down), & then just refresh the webpage and go to the channel called "PGA Championship" which is actually the golf channel.

I read about it today on here and it changed my life.

I still don't know how to quote (i'm answering littlepingman) & would highly appreciate it if someone told me how you quote. Thanks
Hope I helped.
frankgpass
Hit "quote" then reply. Not quick reply.

Stenson
What is Phil doing. Choking? Again?
midasmulligan2000
Phil & Angel now AS, going to 18.
