great putt lee

GREAT putt anthony

philly mick

aaaaaaaa game over

was sure peter alliss just referred to woods' troubles as his "trousers tibulations"

tribulations*

alliss talking about 'the orientals' incl anthony kim

pretty sure it was trials and tribulations but it seems a real pity to ruin the fun

that'll do it

laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaame

well congrats to phil--made some unbelievable shots when it mattered most

yeah he deserves this

i can hear sportswriters around the nation typing out how family man phil mickelson prevailed over the heathen tiger woods

^^^lol, yeah this

he sorta totally deserved it but imo anthony kim deserved it just as much

btw this matteo dude!

fuckin 16!!!

he played really nice

his english isn't bad either

Mickelson was great, but I thought Tiger was remarkable too. Who else can hit it all over the place on Sunday, miss putts he should make, and still manage a 69? And the interview right after was excellent: no, I'm not satisfied, I entered to win. Not trying to slight the winner here.

how long till your face evens out when u have a tan like that

manassero vs kim rivalry to echo thru space and time

xxxp yeah he def said something sensible and non-awkward which is a++++ in that room with those dudes.

the joke that writes itself

That crossed my mind..."He's managed quite a few 69s the past year."

preferred lies: the tiger woods story

no, I'm not satisfied, I entered to win

Um, I'm sensing some real Tiger hate here. Let me guess--he used to be your very definition of truth and morality and virtue, and now you feel terribly let down.

lol jon heyman

wtf are you talking about? he's a dickhead and always has been.

Not sure how to respond to that, other than to say "How so?"

well i mean for whatever individual reasons we may all have for mocking the most easily mockable sports figure in recent history, my personal opinion is that, excellence at golf aside, he's an amoral mercenary off the course and often a petulant whiner on it.

Golf coverage is so gross. Don't the toadie commentators ever feel bad for themselves?

ashamed of themselves, I mean

do you get peter alliss?

I'll give you the mercenary, placing him with hundreds of other professional athletes who take obscene amounts of money because someone's willing to give it to him. He gets even more of it by virtue of being better than just about every other professional athlete.

Amoral? Jack Nicholson can spend his life fucking anything that moves, and he's just lovable, naughty Jack. Unless you're talking about Nike's business practices, in which "amoral" is a mighty large leap for me.

And I just don't recall Woods ever being a whiner on the golf course. A temper, yes--not the same thing. I don't remember him ever making excuses when he doesn't play well.

i remember him slumping dramatically after every missed putt like it's the end of the goddamn world.

i mean you're right, tiger's kind of just a blown out version of shit that lots of athletes do. so i'm not sure why you're confused that we would make easy jokes at his expense?

he went through a period of whining about cameras and crowds

I just think he's competitive above and beyond where you'll find even most professional athletes. And I think you'd find parallel behaviours in Jordan, Federer, Gretzky, or anyone else who's ever played at his level. Jokes are fine, jokes are good; I've made more than a few Tiger jokes myself the past while. I've just been really appalled at the holier-than-thou stuff that sometimes accompanies them.

yeah, this. man up.

if peter alliss is the main bbc guy i think he is remarkable. i would listen to anything he commentated.
