So Sergio walks by the stands on #12 to a raucous booing... as he's walking he turns to the crowd and flashes the hook 'em. 

Best shit I've seen all day.

Bjerregaard drops a bomb for eagle. All square with Tiger. 

Then Tiger stiffs it on 17. 

Edited by Jive Turkey

Great Tee shot by Tiger on #17...... really impressed with Both players in this match.  Just incredible to see Tiger playing this well again.  Really has another shot at a green jacket if he plays this well in 2 weeks.

Hell of a match regardless

Let’s see how clutch he is. 

 

Welp. Sorry about those ratings tomorrow, NBC.

Pretty funny how Zingerrr commented that Bjerregaard wasn't making any long putts today..... then right after the Dane sinks a bomb for eagle on #16, then an 18 footer for birdie on #17.

Great match.....

Everyone on NBC is focused on that putt Tiger missed.  It wasn't the putt that did him in.  It was his second shot.

Told y'all motherfuckers.

Actually though he married some hottie from UT that ended up as a golf journalist.

He married Marty Akins daughter. Marty ran the wishbone at Texas for three years in the early 70’s. Probably the best who has ever done it.

Great article on Angela Akins.... Sergio's wife

https://www.ajc.com/sports/golf/who-angela-akins-sergio-garcia-wife/gxapVjHMzD7c02PVV50ZrN/ 

She was a Golf Channel reporter. 

She was also a college golfer......   Akins transferred from Texas Christian University to the University of Texas, where she played for the UT women’s golf team. 

Former Longhorns QB Marty Akins is her Dad.  Drew Brees is her cousin.  And she has converted Sergio to a Longhorn fan.

Kisner needs to be on Ryder Cup teams.

Agreed..... Furyk screwed up on his 2018 Ryder Cup team picks by not picking Kisner.

Tiger is fortunate to not be playing this morning in Austin...... windy and low 40s right now.  Might be better for him physically in preparation for The Masters to have played only 5 matches instead of 7 matches.

Looks like they are playing in some nice fall weather (then again it is 38 here today)

Marty Akins was my football hero as a kid, I also ran the wishbone until senior year and I emulated everything he did. That’s really cool, I wish she like “older” men.
Kisner needs to be on Ryder Cup teams.

Man I was yelling for this when Furyk made his captains picks. Would have been a great addition. Also want him to beat the hell out of Kuchar

What is the consensus from the players about Austin Country Club? I haven't played it in a long time but it seemed like back then it was a mix of great holes with some gimmicky holes. From watching on TV they've definitely made changes.

Hope Kuch holds on, but Bjerregaard/Kisner would be fun to watch too.

I think it's a great layout for a PGA event - especially fun for a match play. 

Some of the greens are pretty wicked and generally small targets. Mix of pretty short holes with some longer ones. Seems like the 3s and 4s play shorter and the 5s make up for that distance a bit.  

#13 is just a great golf hole any way you slice it (npi). That tee shot will put some hair on your peaches. 

The rough is pretty forgiving throughout but it's definitely a ball striker's course - narrow fairways and a lot of pins you have to go right at for a makeable birdie. 

Thanks, that's a good summary. I do think it is a course that has a lot of intrigue in this type of format. They've obviously lengthened some of the holes as well. Especially in the front, which was the back when I played it 20 years ago.

Whatever happened to my old buddy Bowdog, for too long I poked fun at him and his PGA tour failings - even using the name 80wditch

Good write up about Steven at PGA tour.com, he had back surgery last year and is in recovery and rehab, looking to return to the tour next year - via playing on the Web.com.
