Tiger didn't make much of anything on the greens. Thought he drove the ball well. Iron play could be better as well.

He looked like boo-boo from the first tee yesterday.

I'm assuming Woods will be in the featured group for early round 2 coverage.
He tees off at 9:18 our time.

I still can't believe AN didn't put him in the Thurs morning/fri afternoon wave.
Having to play until sundown and then having to come out at sunrise is probably going to be his undoing. Consecutive cut streak looks like it may be in jeopardy now.
There was nothing wrong with his original tee time. Not even ANGC can control the weather and subsequent 2+ hour delay in Thursday tee times.
25+ players have the same issue.
He could have benefited from the added time off between tee times regardless. And the weather forecast was well known before the tee times came out.
I get not giving preferential treatment but half the field gets early Thurs/late Friday tee times. Getting arguably the greatest golfer of all time, who also is basically stitched together like Frankensten at this point, in that wave would have made sense. Weather or not.
Golfers actually prefer Thursday afternoon/Friday morning. I could make a case that Woods original tee times were very favorable. The weather delay is what changed that.
Most "golfers" don't require multiple hours of rehab after their round and then several hours the next morning to get their body ready to swing a club. Tiger does. The quick turnaround is much harder on him than everyone else.
I get not wanting to give Tiger any perceived preferential treatment, but let's not act like we don't even know what he goes through to play.
Ok. But giving him a Thursday afternoon tee time WAS what was best for him and his injuries, as far as him getting off to a good start to the week.
Woods got a bad break with the weather. But 25+ other players did as well. And how much time he needs to warm up shouldn't be an issue in determining tee times.
I don't understand your point. So you think the ANGC doesn't want to give Woods a chance to compete better? I guarantee you the ANGC and TV do. So they're not going to deliberately do things to hurt his chances.
Again, it's my opinion that his tee times were good. The weather delay is what made them worse.
well considering the clubs are legal, it isn't cheating. If the irons really do make that much of a difference all the pros and manufactures will switch to them in due time. Bravo to Bryson for using his brain and pushing the limits on innovation.Orome said:

This sort of seems like cheating for a pro if they actually do reduce the effect of his mi****s/bad swings.

Dechambeau is playing with a set of 3D printed irons that were just approved by the USGA on Monday for play. Didn't know that.
Bryson DeChambeau shooting a 65 for the solo lead at the Masters with 3D printed irons that he designed and got approved this week is the most Bryson DeChambeau thing ever.

His tee times were good for a normal golfer. Ending late and starting early is awful for tiger and his back/leg. Having a morning and then afternoon tee time would seem to be much better for him specifically (not for other golfers). I don't see how this is really debatable. Look at him this morning and the other majors where he's finished late and then teed off early.
Hopefully he can start feeling better and turn it around but it doesn't look like his body will hold up.

If Tiger or Scottie would've came up with these irons and put them in play would it "sort of seem like cheating"? No.

Playing the last couple holes of round one this morning gave him the out of saying he wore the hideous thing while getting to claim it was too warm for it for the entirety of the second round.98Ag99Grad said:

They don't care. They aren't trying to sell clothes to the people *****ing. Just like Puma or Adidas didn't.
