  • Does Tiger make the cut at the Honda this week?

It's Florida, so I'm going to say it's "home" for him and predict he makes the cut.

I think he makes it. Got to travel back early and hopefully his back will be up to it. I don't know how he'll hold up for four rounds, but I predict he'll get off to a good start.

Tiger is a head case again as documented in a couple of national golf magazines. He was tinkering with the settings on his driver to improve his performance off the tee. Someone needs to take the wrench away from him and set up an appointment with Steve Strecker to discuss the importance of how and why to make the mental transition from trying to keep up with the flat bellies and ease into a pre-senior controlled swing with improved fairway stats.

I don't think he makes the cut.

Along with a bottle of Chardonnay, two glasses, a blanket and a pack of Trojans. 😜

    Tough track,especially "The Bear Trap",but I think somehow he'll find his way around/
    take a few detours.....and he makes the cut

    After finishing near dead last at Riviera , i say he makes cut and ends up 30-40th

    Not against Tiger and really don't like to be negative about anyone's game, but I would be fine with waiting till Tiger at least makes a top 10 finish before the media wastes everyone's time to watch mediocre play at the professional level. Watching Tiger at this time is about as interesting as watching grass grow.

      I only want to see his tee shots with his driver.

      Even par was the cut last year so he's on it, and the scores so far aren't as good as last year at this time.

        Conditions are tough this afternoon. Wind is up and greens firmed up as a result. Not many players in the red. Tiger at even is T21 so he might even improve upon that. Last week he evacuated his bowels on Friday.

          Seems like he played better than average today. Unless he throws up tomorrow in better scoring conditions - looks like he'll be play 72 holes this week.

              Not really, for him. This is the lowest he's ever shot in the 1st round at the Honda, which he has never won. But, considering where he's been, and what he's gone through, he played damn well.

                  Fairways hit 50%
                  GIR's 55%
                  didn't look but these have to be quite a bit better than last week's numbers.

                  7 rounds playecd and still hasn't broken 70 but with it being par 70 should do so this week.

                    There is always so much negativity when Tiger's game comes up in forums. He is clearly the greatest player of all time. Nicklaus never had his game or quality of competition on tour. Sure, he has had his personal problems but why judge him on his game. This is the first time he has been pain free in 5 years. He is good for the game as he brings the fans and excitement to a sport that really needs it. Ticket sales and TV ratings go up at least 40% when he plays. I love to watch him as a golf fan and hope he does well.

                      Put Tiger's major championships in a box, then put Jack's major championships in a box.

                      Then tell me who has more.

                      It's that easy.

                        ode In good position!

                        Yep, tied with 11 others at even. Projected cut +3. He should make the cut unless he really waltzes on his willy.

                          That reminds me of one of my Granny's favorite sayings. "You can wish in one hand and crap in the other and see which one get full the fastest."
