Ah shoot, US Open golf is on and they're following Tiger on EVERY HOLE. Ugh.....

it’s being carried on the USA Network. I’m so sick of the networks covering an X golfer who was a goat at one time, but please, please can they just stop. I sure hope he cracks and ends up last like at the Masters. He’s tied for second now at -1 after 4 holes, so a long way to go. Think I’ll just go do something useful.

I know today is the first round, but even with a blind draw for tee times there should be some of the favorites who aren't on the course yet.

But tomorrow he’ll be more in prime time as they always change start times. I just won’t watch. M

he gonna start limping bad pretty soon. Whenever he does poorly on the course, he starts limping. Oh, and really not watching just checking in once in awhile.

It's much flatter than Augusta & the walks from one green to the next tee aren't expeditions like at TPC.
I think he'll make it healthwise for the whole tournament. He had 2 really good putts refuse to go in. Those fall & he's in good shape.
I still think he'll finish in the Top 30.
