That seems about right but in my opinion terrible wager either way.
no Tim, hes more like 3-5. you have to bet 140 bucks to win 100. Els is a tad over 3-1.

Well, I'll go straight exacta Tiger /Els, DiMarco. then. 6-0 in majors when having the lead after 36. Thats all day. Ora, you're trying to beat an unbeatable fav. Plenty of par 5s to birdie and hitting 23-28 fairways? If Tiger is on like that, NO CHANCE to beat him. -20 may be his final score. You will see solid play over the weekend. He has only 1 bogey in 2 rounds. You cannot beat him when he's on. Another point, He's hit maybe 1 driver? That's the only thing that gets him in trouble. He hits his fairways and you can pack your bags, piss on the fire and call in the dogs. Oh, and BTW, BIG FAT PHIL IS GARBAGE, anybody remotely comparing him to Tiger are a lost ball in high weeds.

After a quarter in :22 flat .. and a half in :43.3 ... Tiger's lead narrows to one length ... as he hits the 6f marker in 1:08.2 ... his pace has slowed ... and the field closes in ...

... can he put it back in gear down the stretch ...

... will he draw off and win in hand ... or just hold on under a stiff drive ... or ...

... (gasp!) will he pull a Lost In The Fog ... and crack like a British breakfast egg?

Look closely and you'll see the Shoe is in the irons, he's just been saving his mount for the stretch drive, watch the Tiger pull away in deep stretch!

It looks as if Vijay's best days are behind him.

He's had some remarkable years ... and rose to #1 world ranking ... but he doesn't seem to be able to get it together anymore.

Is this the slow twilight of a great career?
