Tiger playing 4 out of 5 events.........+4 today

First round of the Farmers Insurance Open @ Torrey Pines 37 on the front, 39 on the back.

Then Dubai
Then Riviera
Then PGA National

]Over/under on when its obvious he's not gonna make a cut and starts grabbing his back and withdraws.....

Tiger=Bonds IMO. Loved them both in their "prime"...elite entertainment!

Both are Hall of Famers in their respective sports irregardless...but add the "juice" and they are considered the best ever in that sport...Not being negative but it was that era (95-05 give or take) just my opinion.

FWIW I hope Tiger wins one more major (now thats he's clean) and if its the US Open at Erin Hills this year my dad, son and I will be cheering him on!

I feel his back getting sore from here.

"Since the PGA Tour adopted an anti-doping program in 2008, only three players have been suspended by the Tour for using PEDs, and none -- Doug Barron (2009), Bhavik Patel and Scott Stallings (both 2015) -- are boldface names.

That list of violators might not sound like a cause for alarm, but there's a corollary concern: The Tour’s drug-testing program is riddled with holes, and that helps the Tour do brisk business. Commissioner Tim Finchem said as much last year.

"We went to drug-testing because the perception across the board in sports is that athletes dope," Finchem said last February. "We even had questions raised about our sport. We felt that the image of our sport and our athletes is the number one asset by a big margin. And in our defense we want to be able to demonstrate that our players don’t [use PEDs].


Translation: The Tour's drug-testing program was designed not so much to catch cheaters as to reassure sponsors that there are no cheaters to catch. The resulting program is too simple, too soft and too secretive to combat the increasingly sophisticated science of doping, according to top officials from WADA and the United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA).

In a series of interviews with GOLF.com, WADA Director General David Howman and USADA CEO Travis Tygart expressed concerns that the Tour's reluctance to perform blood tests on its players (as do the NFL, MLB and NBA) has opened the door for athletes to gain an advantage by using performance-enhancing substances such as human growth hormone (HGH) that are undetectable by other means.

"The [Tour's] own anti-drug policy admits that HGH can enhance performance," Tygart said. "If it does all that good, and there's no way to get caught using it, call me crazy, but logic tells me that unless these athletes don’t want to win, it's a hard sell not to do it."

Said Howman, "It's an invitation to break the rules."

Can't believe his lack of swing speed. Sometimes he was 40-50 yards behind DJ. His swing actually reminds me of Bo Weekly.

If you had under the third round of the Dubai Omega classic you're a winner.

Dude is done-zo.

Yeah, he cooked. Put him in the booth with Chamblee and watch the fireworks. Lol.

If you have a bad back, is it a good idea to fly to Dubai and play golf?
