    Langer has rolled back the years for sure and Couples too, that's one of the great things about golf that sometimes you can get veterans rolling back the years and going close again. Langer was one of the ones I watched as a little kid, makes me feel a bit less middle-aged now!

    what did Woods do that would normally cause his score to be invalid leading to disqualification ?

    I've watched a fair bit of the coverage but not seen him mentioned at all. Fred's back usually gives out by the last round. Both great blokes.

    He took a drop shot in the wrong position, got to be honest don't understand the rules properly myself. The irony is the drop shot was actually from a fantastic shot he had which hit the pin and bounced into the water from that!

    I hope the golfing gods **** on woods' round with great vengeance and furious anger. He knows he should have been disqualified, he could have disqualified himself as the laws state.

    He didn't and lowered himself even lower in my view, which took some doing. The ****

    I hope Woods plays the worst golf of his career. He shouldn't even still be involved, how he hasn't been disqualified is beyond all sense.

    Shnedeker not looking too bad atm.

    Last night the wife asked if there are alligators in the water hazards. If there were that would be a proper man's water hazard

    I will go against the consensus here and say why should Woods fall on his own sword, you wouldn't fire yourself if you'd been given a written warning at work when you should have been sacked? It's the people laying down the rules that are at fault, if they had booted him out then they would have given the correct decision going on what people seem to make of it. I didn't like Faldo's attitude to the situation, seemed a bit sanctimonious to me in all honesty as if they have said he can carry on then he's entitled to do so.

    Faldo's a weirdo tool who would have sold his mother for a major championship if required - there is no way on earth he would practise what he's been preaching if he were in the same situation.

    Tricksy I was listening to a debate about it yesterday with old golf players and apparently if the powers that be miss an infringement it is expected of the player to hold his hands up and disqualify himself.

    Woods shouldn't have been put in that position - he should have been disqualified. The only reason he wasn't was that tv audiences drop dramatically if woods isn't in a tournament.

    But he was put in that position and should've disqualified himself

    Will have to agree to disagree then Mullet, they should have busted him out and he would have accepted that. Why should he quit under pressure from some washed-up has-beens like Faldo? Tuckin sums up Faldo quite nicely.

    I don't think anybody would be taking a dip Van de Velde style if there were!

    I have told her there was, and sharks.


    I once told her indoors that they had remote controlled golf balls after she asked why the ball swerved so much after they had putted it.

    For one glorious moment I thought she was buying it.

    I even said they had the controls in the grip of their putters.

    :eek:

    I don't think we are really disagreeing - we both think he should have been disqualified. To be fair it wasn't faldo I heard, although every single one in the interview (americans included) agreed with what he'd said.

    But I'm probably letting my dislike of the woman beating mysogynist get the better of me
