I think that piece of sod on 14 was his divot.

Thank goodness he's not like all the other soulless faceless Bubba "Webb" Watleys out there right now.

There wasn't a real club toss.....rather a loose grip off a bad tee shot that slipped out of his hands -- that's not really an anger thing.

However, he did take a pretty good divot with a strike of anger on the other shot.

The intensity is a double edged sword, one part makes him "great" and one part makes him looks fairly "bad"! All in all though, if you don't have that intensity, whether you let it show or not, you probably aren't going to play at his level.

Come on! I've played golf for 20 years now and never once has the the club slipped out of my hands before, during, or after a swing. It is better than his routine dropping of the F bomb though.

I've had the Driver come out my hands the odd time -- and not in anger. Sometimes when you make a poor swing you'll slide through with only one hand on the grip and it can get away on you if you're gripping loosely as you should.

Now that piece of shit "putter" I threw into the pine trees after yanking a 3 foot putt, that was for real. That was about 30 years ago though -- I've matured!

Interesting to see Tiger win yesterday. I run a Masters Pool and I have always liked fading Tiger because so many people jump on him. Now I'm concerned because he appears to be in good form and hungry for a major.

Does anyone think he will sh^t the bed in the Masters or is he likely to play well there again? I'm very much torn.

I actually find myself rooting for Tiger. He's fallen so far and everyone deserves another chance. (Even the superstars.)

However, I don't think he goes from a small win like this to his previous Masters form in a week.

I'd have to lay against him unless I could get a very good price.

I would not call this win a small one. The pin placement on Sunday was a challenge.

Some one posted on Twitter, Tiger's the favorite at 4 to 1 to win -- where, I'm not sure if that's a betting line from LV or Ladbroke.

Not sure what it means but check out the color of the shoes on Sunday. Tiger switched to white shoes at the turn during the tourney where he WD. I thought I heard one TV talking head he thought TW was walking gingerly. I did not see it.

I think Tiger is now older and a lot wiser -- at least as far as understanding he can not play through the pain any longer, and, it is not a wise thing to do. So, yes, he withdrew but not b/c he could not win but b/c he knew he had more to lose by making his achilles problem worse.
