Title: The Players Championship Sawgrass
Post by: Rossie11 on May 06, 2010, 11:52:58 AM
Starting soon.
Who's the money on in the "5th" major?
Probably 1st time ever Tiger is not favourite for a tournament he has entered.
9/1 on betfair for anyone who reckons he can turn it round after missing the cut last week
Can Mcilroy make it 2 in a row?

On the official PGA site they show coverage of the 17th hole all day if you're dying for a fix!

lol it's not that bad. Just in the house and nothin on tv. Have a few pound on Westwood at 25/1 and he'd a good first round and he teed of half an hour ago just wanted to follow his round. Will just have to watch the leaderboard.

So did his playing partner fall back and make the next group a 3-ball?

What happened to Westwood? Left the house to head to work and in about 20 minutes he's dropped out of contention?

Only parred 16 and put ball in water at 17 for a double bogey. Had holed a huge putt for par on 15 and before that dropped a couple of shots. Driving erratic over closing holes except 18

Great to see Clark holding on although I would have loved to see Westwood finally
get over the line in the US... Great talent!

Westwood has already won on the PGA tour, admittedly over 10 years ago.

Westwood is in danger of becoming the Jimmy White of golf.. the nearly man in the big tournaments.
3rd in both PGA and Open last year
2nd in Masters this year and now this one has gotten away too.
Granted he is making alot of cash and playing well but at the moment he cant
close out the big tournaments when seemingly in control.

Think Garcia is the nearly man of golf.

He did win the Players in fairness but I know what you mean.
I hope Westwood wins one of the majors soon as he won't keep getting these chances, what age is he now? I think I heard 38
