Tiger is hanging around but not making headway on Perry. Mickleson is tied for the lead. Phil took a snowman yesterday on a par 4 when he went back and forth in traps like an amateur. Perry amd Phil at -7. Tiger with 3 others at -5. The top prize is a mill but the accumulated championship is also on line. That is a 10 million dollar prize. The putts on the 18th could be interesting. Nothing like a 10 or 11 million dollar putt to test your nerves.

Perhaps Tiger has a choking level. This tournament can win him 10 million dollars. He is sucking wind. He can’t hit a fairway, can’t sink a putt and can save nothing. He is playing with Perry who was 2 up going in. He exploded to the second page of the board. It was there for the taking, yet a bunch of people are passing Tiger up.
