  They just changed the rules apparently: cut is +5, there is no 10 stroke rule, just top 60? and ties.

  Hope he doesn't get paired with Tiger, he'd likely implode.

  And he's on drugs or something.
  
  Right now it's at +5.

  What a terrible break for Tiger. How in the world did that ball hang up?
• wildcats20

  

  Really Roger? That wasn't similar in any way, shape or form. lol

  Who is worse, Miller or Berman?

  Berman for sure.
• wildcats20

  

  Berman is bad but at least he isn't a fucktard.

  Tiger needs to get his shit together

  Nice birdie tiger.
  
  Sooo hypothetical, because it won't happen, but if the Amateur wins. Does 2nd get first place money??
• Ironman92

  

  Solid putt

  not sure about that. eventually they have to start dispersing it amongst the other players

  Idk but imo he should have to declare before the tournament started.

  No he could declare for the next event but not the one he entered
• dazedconfused

  

  brutal shot for tiger. bounced pretty much the same as bubba's and ends up about 50 yards over the green
• Terry_Tate

  

  Fantastic chip though. Couldn't have done it much better.

  indeed. i don't know how you go about setting up a hole where landing 10 yards in front of the green will result in the ball finishing up 40 yards behind it
• ZWICK 4 PREZ

  

  luckily for Phil he went crazy low 1 over and made the cut.
