The thing with Tiger though is that while some of these huge shots may be somewhat lucky, he's so amazing at being able to read the speed and slope and break of a green. When he makes those putts, he knows exactly what he's doing. Sure, the ball could bounce a bit on the green, or it could hit some debris and kick off target a few inches, but when Tiger lines himself up for a big putt, if he reads it properly, as he usually does, and it doesn't hit something or get off line, he knows he's going to drain it because he's so good at visualizing it, and he's so ahead of the other players in that regard. Like that eagle on 18. The announcers had no idea why he was set up that way. One of the announcers said "hes aimed a bit left, dont you think?" and the other followed up with "way left." Then, of course, he sunk it. He just sees things out there that no one else can. Now that chip in, that was complete luck and he even admitted it while being interviewed later. But hey, when you're that good you get the shooter's bounce. right. i think the reason he put his head down and just kinda smiled at 17 was because he knew how lucky he'd gotten. the putt at 13 had a great line, but was going well long if the line was off, and the chip on 17 might've been hit a little more than he wanted. but golf is very much a game that's base on "feel", and it's impressive that he might win the whole thing after taking several weeks away because of the knee surgery. i agree. if he wins this thing, I think it'll be a while before we see him again. he doesn't look great out there, and at times he looks like hes in so much pain that it makes me want to cringe. i think he'll probably take the next month off until the open championship.
