Rocco had better take it on 7 or 8, cause Tiger definitely has the advantage on 18. I gotta jump to catch a train in about 10. Come on Rocco! ---

So they head back to the 7th where Tiger has 2 birdies and 3 pars. Rocco has 4 pars and 1 bogey. ---

Tiger is on the right edge of the fairway. Rocco is in the bunker on the leftside of the fairway. Huge advantage for Tiger. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/us-open-thread/452690.md?page=9) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/us-open-thread/452690.md?page=11)
