**CUBUCK** · 04-10-2005, 05:07 PM

**Benny Profane** · 04-10-2005, 05:31 PM

Tiger's chip-in on 15.

Golf shot.

Saw it after the lifts closed - skiing was really good today.

**CUBUCK** · 04-10-2005, 05:42 PM

I'm sure the guys at Nike are already chomping at the bit to use that footage of the Swoosh as it hung above the hole for a second before dropping in. That chip will be one we'll see every year. Simply amazing

**Benny Profane** · 04-10-2005, 06:34 PM

yeah, I was cooking dinner at the time, turned the corner, saw that ball rolling, at the next moment I saw the swoosh, and then.......

But he's still having problems with that driver. Is it a Nike?

**Duker** · 04-10-2005, 06:35 PM

best golf shot I've ever seen live. THat was awesome, It looks like tiger is back.....

Everything except the scotty cameron titleist putter, unless he changed it for the masters

Tigers bag for Doral

**laseranimal** · 04-11-2005, 03:56 AM

I'd like to have her in my bag

**Aldo** · 04-11-2005, 07:43 AM

The 16th hole got owned yesterday. DiMarco hung in there. I almost broke my kitchen table when he nearly holed the chip on 18 in regulation.... I can't believe he came up short on that shot twice....... Lanny is a blowbag.

Lanny is a HUGE blowbag. Almost as bad as Venturi. I thought that DiMarco was done after the third round - he played like a champ though. He wasn't afraid of Tiger, which was great to see.

The Masters in HD.....Sweet! What a day, Demarco just does not quit. Tremendous heart.

**tuffy109** · 04-11-2005, 09:50 AM

how dimarco came up short on the same whole after playing it 10 minutes before is unbelievable. he coulda won, but glad to see tiger land another.

**half-fast** · 04-11-2005, 10:02 AM

if dimarco had made a few of his birdie putts, it wouldn't have been close...

That was a site to see.

Were you watching? I would have liked to have seen more playoff holes...

**EPSkis** · 04-11-2005, 10:25 AM

I'll take Lanny over THIS GUY.

Thomas Boswell - Washington Post "sportswriter". (So to speak.)

Writes an article Saturday about how self-destructive Tiger's attitude is for his game. (Gee, what an original topic.) Brings up Singh as an example of what Woods' attitude (in his opinion) SHOULD be. (Not only is he a sportswriter, but he's a sports psych?

)

Turns around on Sunday and writes an entire article about a tiff between Mickelson & Singh over spike marks on greens? What? This is sportswriting?

This morning, writes yet another Tiger article about how Woods nearly squandered a lead, but covered every single shot in which he felt DiMarco *should* have taken the lead. Again =

.

Closes today's article with "Indeed, all around and in every way, how sweet it was. " after bashing Tiger during Masters Week. Douchebag.

One final word for Thomas Boswell:

!

Curiously, he's also ONE of the three Post sportswriters who haven't published their email addresses - I now understand why.

**Buzzworthy** · 04-11-2005, 10:31 AM

I got sucked in Sat when he was only 4 under. What a comeback! Then Sunday I was all eyes, watched the whole thing, unreal.

On 15, some people said the ball stopped then dropped. I tivoed it and it was still rolling the whole time, just reaaaaal slow at the end. I woke the kid with a super yell!

When it went to sudden death, I was thinking that DiMarco was going to pull it off, he was so steady the whole tourney. ANd yes, Tiger just screwed himself with that driver the last few holes for sure. He got lucky on the bounce back in the 2nd cut after running the left trees.

I was like, Nascar, Masters, Nascar, Master, screw Nascar, the Masters this year was simply amazing!!!

WOW!!!

BTW, last weekend I played my best game ever, 103. Considering I have not broke 115 in 2 years, I was stoked. (I like playing, but I have a HORRIBLE slice that I am trying to correct). Dad, who plays 4 days a week in Tucson had a tough time and came up with 100. I felt pretty damn good.

Cool - Played 36 yesterday and couldn't break 90 on either of them. My short game has gone to hell.

(Slice is generally because of an outside-in swing path & an open face at impact.) Focus on a slow straight takeaway & don't let your right elbow fly out over at the top of your backswing. You might also try moving the ball further foward in your stand (effectively giving the clubhead more time to close along the swingpath *before* impact.)

**snow_slider** · 04-11-2005, 11:09 AM

WOW, internet golf lessons. You charge for that stuff EP?
