91st PGA Championship

Actually it's even more interesting to hear (post round interviews) about the admiration the 2 have for each other. Great sportsmanship there!

I'm hoping Paddy will do better for Rd 3 to have the last day with TW again in the final group. That would be something to watch, even though it's a tall task since Tiger has been perfect 8-0 when leading a major after 36-holes.

Paddy is kicking butt today. 1 behind TW now.

Ernie is also playing catch up.

tigger now potentially 3 ahead of paddy...


beautiful approach on the 18th.



VJ's one was lagi better. almost eagled from the approach.

alamak missed birdie putt....



still leader of 2 ahead.

Seems like VJ also can't break the "CURSE" of playing with TIGER!!!

Too bad Tiger will be playing the 4th Round with YE Yang & not PH. But too bad for all the others too, cos Tiger's record for 54-holes lead in a major is 14-0.

I'm very impressed with Yang. I think that this will be a good test for him. He's played very well so far and if he can challenge Tiger, his name will go into record books

wow.. a wire to wire finish for woods on the last major of the year right after knee surgery? i can't imagine a better end to the year for TW. can't wait to watch!

First of all, I am a Tiger Fan...... But nowadays, maybe it is due to age...but I appreciate more the way Padddy carry himself...thru good days or bad days or good shot or bad shots....really awesome....ie no cursing, no tossing of clubs....

For this once, I will be rooting for Paddy...if he win, I will go for my Irish stew next weekend.

So Tiger with YE? Lucky... If Tiger paired with Paddy, then I will take urgent leave tomorrow..

Yah, PH is classy. And, there's something about the tongue-sticking out action which makes him unique

I am wondering if there will be another playoff to end this last major of the year...

If the playoff really happens... I wish to see PH and TW going one on one

That would be worth watching!!

The battle is now between Yang and TW.

As for PH, how did he score an 8 on the Par 3 8th???

TW and Yang, both bogeyed the 17th. Yang is still a shot ahead. 18th hole. Pressure's on TW. Game on folks!!

On PH's disaster, here's what I got from Auclair's Blog on PGA.com (the last paragraph says it all):

Auclair's Blog wrote:

3:40 PM CDT -- Got word a few minutes ago that Harrington made a huge number on the par-3 eighth. Can we get confirmation, Mr. Editor?

If that's the case, after Tiger's bogey at No. 8 -- it took three shots to get on the green -- and Yang's par -- he missed a 6-foot birdie try -- the two are tied for the lead at 6 under with Paddy now out of sight.

Editor's Note: Huge is not the word. Gargantuan is more like it. Ireland's favorite son made a quintuple-bogey 8 on the eighth, with two balls in the water, a chunked chip and one shot that nearly hit his playing competitor Henrik Stenson, who was standing next to the green. When the dust settled, Harrington had fallen from 6-under to 1-under and out of contention. Say goodnight, Paddy.

Yang's 2nd on the 18th was amazing. A 3 hybrid shot to about 10 feet from the hole. Unbelievable.

All bets are now firmly on Yang!

Come on TW, hole out for the 2nd!!!

Yang wins it! With a birdie on the last. Wins by 3, with TW bogeying the last.

Sorry, TW... close, but not this time.

omg my heart was beating like crazy! don't know why but i felt bad for TW.. but aznpride! haha yang's eagle chip in was insanee

I felt bad for TW too but he didn't quite capitalize. He had a couple of opportunities but the flat stick didn't work for him today.

si bei bad start for me this week....

yeah and his approach shots were all disappearing into the rough! he was livid with himself! hopefully you can't read lips but the words he was saying.. haha oh well yang's carried himself wonderfully today. and he was so cool under pressure!

Bad start? Because TW lost?

Aiyah, MC... give others a chance Besides, it's nice to see an Asian take home a major for one

I missed the show, but woke up reading about paper tigers in some blogs. Seems like last night, Wushong Da Hu? (Wushong whack the tiger).

I acutally beg to differ. Well not beg; I differ!!!
YE Yang had a beautiful round. and as an asian, I am rather happy that he managed to rip the trophy out of the hands of Tiger to bring it back to Asia.
