At least there is hope for Rory.

From my point of view watching Woods was like watching the career funeral of a great sporstmen. That was awful to watch.

Absolutely hopeless ball striking. Without his iron will and determination he would not break 75 with that swing.

level par with a left handed nudge out of a bush and a sitter on the last. astonishing to score that the way he played.

ball embedded in a sandy lie in waste/scrub area, he called Kaymer over and both agreed the ball was embedded so Tiger took free drop and chipped out sideways, however was not entitled to a free drop as it was deemed a sandy area.
