Rocco had a very good round, with an excellent short game, but my god did he miss some puts. He had multiple opportunities to put the tourney away on the back nine and didn't. I think with Tiger's knee, a full 18 hole playoff benefits Rocco.

| Re: 108th US Open at Torrey Pines I think that Tiger will take it to Rocco today. What a great tournament and kudos to the USGA for setting up a tough, yet very fair golf course this year. Good golf, great course and great crowds made this one a great tourney.

| Re: 108th US Open at Torrey Pines While I'd never bet money against Tiger I think today if Rocco can keep up his play and not fold in the moment he beats Tiger. I just think Tiger's luck (which making those long Eagle putts took skill it also takes Luck) will run out in his round today. Rocco has played more conssitant than Tiger and that is what it takes to win the US open. How many people knew that Tiger's last putt on 18 Sunday was going to drop? I did! |

| Re: 108th US Open at Torrey Pines Tiger's comeback was exciting to watch. He had bad luck on the putt on 16 or 17, when it was heading in and hit something, making it go left. Without that, it would've been a championship-winning shot on 18. Usually, when someone wins constantly, a lot of people including myself roots for them to lose. It's not like that with Tiger. It's hard to root against him. Hopefully, he'll hit a fairway on Hole 1 today. He has 3 double bogeys and a birdie on 1 this tournament. He's going to win this U.S. Open on one leg. Even with a bum knee, he's better than everyone else in the world.

| Re: 108th US Open at Torrey Pines Anyone else see that Nike ad with all the old footage of Tiger of his father? Earl (his Dad) talks about his mental toughness. Pretty awesome stuff.

Yea, I saw that. Earl said nobody EVER would be more mentally focused/tough than Tiger.......pretty good assessment. Should be a good back nine Rocco is down by 2. He better kick it in high gear!

| Re: 108th US Open at Torrey Pines The announcers both on ESPN earlier and on NBC now are so flagrantly cheering for Rocco. It's pretty amusing. Rocco and Tiger are tied right now, and they just said Rocco has him on the ropes. ????
