Lanny Wadkins Quote: "Tiger's finally got someone chasing him (Furyk) who can get it done. All these youngsters only have a few wins."
Why are all the players under 30 ranked out of the top 50? Maybe it has something to do with lack of support from the US Pro Golf Contingent (i.e. everyone sucks up to Tiger and Phil). Gary McCord kept harping on the fact that the under 30 crowd isn't in the top 50. Well, maybe he can help the youngsters out by telling us how he made it to the top 50 before he turned 30 - oh wait, I don't think he did.. And the announcers said that the under 30 crowd needed a Hale Irwin type. As I recall, Hale was a pretty good golfer in his younger days, but didn't become a dominant force until after he turned 50 and joined the Champions Tour.
The "Winning Woods" Graphic that CBS posted during the final round - there was only one win on that list of his finishes at the Buick Open. Whoohoo. One win - let's celebrate with a graphic that suggests to the viewers that he's won every year. They won't look at the stats, just the title at the top of the graphic. How about re-naming the graphic "One More Win and He'll Tie Vijay"?
Finally, the best part of the final round - Jim Furyk paying homage to Camillo Villegas and his Spiderman putt reading :)
