Well he did with ease in the end.
Tiger won the PGA Championship today by 2 strokes from a courageous Woody Austin who threw everything he could muster at the champ but it wasn’t ever quite enough.
Ernie Els shot a majestic 66 which could easily have been two or three better, but it wasn’t enough either.

Tiger Leads by a Smidgen
Posted in Tiger Woods on August 12, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Drama afoot in the PGA.
Woody has birdied three on the trot to get within 2 of Tiger. Ernie keeps hitting his irons within 3 feet making birdies. He just hit a spectacular iron into the par 3 13 to within 3 feet for bird.
Tiger’s still got it to lose, but with the added pressure of [...]
Tiger Birdies 8 to go 4 in front
Posted in PGA Tour on August 12, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Tiger Woods just keeps knocking the putts in.
He just sank a 12 footer for bird on 8, and on the green ahead Ernie missed a bird from 5 feet. That’s the difference. Ernie was wishing it in, and Tiger stroked it in.
Els has got it to 4 under though 9 and trails by 4 but [...]
Tigers Putter Magic in PGA
Posted in PGA Tour on August 12, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Tiger’s already made an 8 footer, a 15 footer and a 4 footer on the first 4 holes and everyone of them was in the middle of the cup.
If he keeps that up no-one will be able to catch him
Conversely Ames can’t buy a putt and just let a 3 footer slide by. Woody Austin [...]
PGA Heatin Up Early
Posted in PGA Tour on August 12, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Tulsa might be hot but Tigers game is not.
Tiger’s just bogied the second and hit driver into the thick rough on the third.
He’s doing his best to leave an opening for someone in the early going. His 3 shot overnight lead maybe one very shortly.
Woody Austin and Ernie Els have just made birdies. Austin is [...]
Nervous Beginnings in PGA for Woods
Posted in Tiger Woods on August 12, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Tiger came close to a 3 putt on the first, but managed an 8 footer par putt save.
He then pulled his drive on the second and is in danger of a bogey. Ames bogied the first and has pulled his drive on the second. He looks nervous.
Els looks relaxed. Boo Weekly is swinging it beautifully [...]
Dyson 5 under in PGA
Posted in Simon Dyson on August 12, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Simon Dyson is having a great final round in the PGA.
After birdies at 11 and 13 he’s moved to 5 under for the day and 1 over for the tournament after starting the day in joint 27th spot.
He still has room to go lower with 4 to play, and a possible 63 in his sights.
Whatever [...]

Simon Dyson has started his final round in the PGA Championship and is 3 under after 4.
Unfortunately he’s too far back to make an impact and lies at +3 for the tournament. However his round is an indicator of the possibility of going low today. Thats for sure.
Simon’s earlier rounds of 73, 71, 72 had [...]

Boo Weekly would rather be fishing than playing in the PGA.

Man alive does he sounds a laid back dude. I’d rather be fishin he says.
Tha’t’s the attitude to play good golf I reckon so it’ll be interesting to see if [...]
Garcia’s Major Misfortunes
Posted in PGA Tour, Sergio Garcia on August 12, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Poor ole Sergio.
After the misfortune of losing in a playoff to Padraig in the British Open I’m sure he would have been looking forward to putting that behind him and moving on.
Instead of that he moved out of the race yesterday with his first disqualification in a major. DQ is a horrible mark against your [...]
