Baddeley the leader coming into today at +2 triple bogeyed the 1st hole to fall one shot behind Tiger who parred the 1st hole. The final group of Tiger and Baddeley is thru 2 holes with Tiger, Ames and Cabrera at +4 tied for the lead. With Paul Casey (who shot 66 on friday)and Baddeley 1 shot back at +5.

Tiger's 3rd = double bogey

Two crappy chips in a row... Looked like something I'd have done.

First a tough 30 yrd uphill, chips it way low and fast, overshoots the green. Then a chip from right off the green, it goes about 8 feet instead of the 40 he needed. misses first putt, double bogey.

He's not looking great today though

Only hit 2 of 5 greens in regulation so far. With 4-5 players within a stroke of the lead he'll have to take it up a bit to get the win. I really want him to also so that whole "never came back on Sunday to win a major" meme can be dropped.

Justin Rose...

I was working at Willow Springs Golf Course in Haslet from 1997-1999. I believe that the Sunday 1998 of the British Open in was a thunderstorm day so the course was pretty empty. We watched amateur Justin Rose near the top of the leaderboard all day, finishing fourth. That was pretty cool, but he hasn't come close to meeting the promise of that day.
