Tiger has withdrawn

Not surprised. If he was walking like that at the end of the round imagine what he'd have been like trying to get out of bed

Think he really should just call it a day. He has nothing to prove to anyone, he's an all-time great, he's only going to tarnish his rep by trying to keep playing against these young guys.

[RichC]

Shame but no way could he have gone on.

[Shaggy]

The right thing to do. Pleasantly surprised he's done it.

Bloody babies not wanting to play in the rain. Get on with it you soft *******s, ive played golf in ****ing hail and nearly 50deg temps!

[Shaggy]

It definitely got better as it went on. The Finau, Pereira and Rory episodes were really good. Best one was Dahmer, about 3 or 4 in. Did you see that one?

His caddy and best mate, while Dahmer was hacking it round, says "can't you WD with a bad back or something? We could get an early flight home? There's one at 3.30"

During the ****ing masters bit different for a no mark event.

Sports is slowly slipping towards being entertainment/social media clips first, proper competition second.

I didnt get very far with the netflix thing, felt it was geared to non golf fans early doors duno if got better as it went on

[Shaggy]

Haha I saw that too. Never used to like Thomas but I warmed to him after that Netflix thing. Just a terrible idea having a ****ing chat to commentators during your round. It is good TV though

[Liverpool]

I missed the Rory one, but seen Justin Thomas do it this morning. I think he shot 6 over on the 8 holes after it and missed the cut by 1

[Shaggy]

I couldn't believe Rory did that with the ear piece. He said others that have done it went on to win so he thought it might work for him lol. It's great TV, great insight, but I reckon he was mad to do it. Concentrate on your golf man.

[Irishnev]

duno if just me but he looks to have bulked up his upper body a fair bit since last year, surely putting even more pressure on his legs.

Yet he still beat Rory who had the better side of the draw

McIlroy was a shambles, right side of the draw and bottled it. Saw him chatting on American tv on the 9th….. what was that about. Refused to do any interviews after he bombed

He’s never winning it - I’ll never back him again

[Liverpool]

He equalled the most cuts in a row so he might drop out - even watching him hit shots is sad to see…… he’s all arms now as he can’t use his legs

Wouldn't be surprised if he WDs. He's too proud for a cart!

I think he's too proud to withdraw as well i'm sure he'll have everyone telling him to withdraw and save himself for future tournaments, **** all to prove.

[Shaggy]

Tiger is absolutely ****ed isnt he. Should give him a cart he's basically disabled after the injuries

30 holes for him tomorrow
