I wonder if it will help Padraig that he won't be paired with Tiger. Maybe without the pressure of playing with Tiger he'll be able to focus on his game and make this interesting.

More impressive than seven straight Tours with only one nad?

aaaaand that would be a "no."
Is it the pressure? Why does Harrington fold like this, two weeks in a row? Bizarre.

Looks like a Woods/Yang duel now.

I don't know what happened to Tiger. Clearly Yang played one heck of a round. Yang made some shots that were just bold and unbelievable. But at the end of the day, Tiger has to think this is one he let slip away. To have a four-stroke lead outright, and a two-stroke lead heading into the final round, he just played way too conservatively. He missed so many putts that should have gone in. Maybe he just couldn't read those greens.

Somebody had to break that streak at some point. You have to give credit to Yang...he just outplayed everyone this weekend, and never choked under the same pressure that so many others have.

I think that's hard to say. The 2 holes that he didn't play conservatively down the stretch, he bogeyed. With that wind, it was hard for any player to aim for the pins today.

Yep...that's what cost him this week.

Wow... just wow... I am a huge fan of Yang now. He kicked Tiger's ass today.
