Tiger will be fine. He's 5 or 6 years younger than Mickelson who has won tourneys and majors in his 40s. These guys have some serious knowledge, skill and experience.

Tiger is also the most motivated guy you will find in sports.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think over the last 20 years only about six golfers over the age of 40 have won a Major. And the global field of excellent golfers will make it that much harder for Tiger.

Watching the US Open right now - heck of a course the guys are on at Erin Hills. Three straight T-shots into the fescue.

Mickelson is skipping the US open to attend something at his daughter's school in California.

Good on him, I sez. When his life reaches it's end, that will have been a hell of a lot more important than yet another US open, never mind the absurdity of chasing little balls through the sand ... err, grass.

Why the heck do some of the guys reporting on a golfers shot whisper? I have never been able to understand that. Is it some kind of unwritten rule?

Jason Day is not having a good one - day that is.

The guys that aren't whispering were just saying that there are more amateurs under par today then pros. 8O:lol:
