Round 4 Open Thread
6:55 -- Immelman makes a terrible play on No. 16, into the water. Double bogey, drops to 8-under. But Snedeker bogeys and falls to 4-under. Tiger birdied No. 18 to get to 5-under. Tiger's probably going to finish second despite having what appeared to be a terrible final round, but was really just par for the course (as in, 72).
6:29 - Immelman up by 6 with 4 to play. This tournament is over.
6:14 - Bogey by Snedeker at No. 13 and Flesch up ahead, birdie by Immelman at 13, and Trevor now has a 5-shot lead with five holes to play.
Trevor Immelman, -10 (13)
Brandt Snedeker, -5 (13)
Steve Flesch -5 (14)
Tiger Woods -4 (14)
6:05 -- Snedeker in the water at No. 13. I'm starting to think that either Immelman will win by 4-5 strokes, or Tiger will win at 6-under.
6:00 -- Tiger bogeys No. 14, falls to 4-under. I think his best-case scenario now is to post 6-under and hope. But the way he's playing doesn't inspire confidence.
Not a very inspiring final round all-around so far.
5:55 -- Immelman bogeys No. 9, Snedeker birdies it from 35-40 feet. Immelman -9, Flesch and Snedeker -6, Tiger -5.
5:45 -- Wow. Beautiful wedge from Tiger on No. 13, recovering after a terrible tee shot, to about 4 feet from the cup. Birdie putt. Yanked it left. Don't often see Tiger just plain pull a putt. Meanwhile, Immelman is in trouble, over the green at No. 12, after just making a fantastic, long par-saving putt on No. 11.
5:39 -- Double bogey for Flesch at No. 12, so Immelman now with a 4-shot lead.
Trevor Immelman -10 (10)
Steve Flesch -6 (12)
Brandt Snedeker -6 (10)
Tiger Woods -5 (12)
5:29 ET -- Steve Flesch into the water on No. 12. And the tee shot wasn't even close - way short. Not one of those that hits the bank and rolls back.
5:17 ET - Finally a big Masters roar. For Tiger -- long birdie putt at No. 11. Woods to 5-under.
5:01 ET - With the last group through nine, not a single golfer in the last 8 pairings is under par today. So there probably won't be an Immelman meltdown, it's more like a slow burn for everyone. Snedeker is down to 6-under, Tiger to 4-under. Immelman at -10 and Flesch at -8. If Immelman steadies himself, it's looking more like Immelman and Flesch separating themselves as others fall away. But the back nine always has surprises.
4:39 ET - An Immelman meltdown? Trevor had a 3-footer on for birdie and a 5-stroke lead. He missed it. Next hole, bogey. Meanwhile, Steve Flesch birdied ahead, and the lead is two.
Trevor Immelman -10 (8)
Steve Flesch -8 (9)
Brandt Snedeker -7 (8)
Tiger Woods -5 (9)
4:04 ET - Flesch wound! Steve hit driver into the trees on No. 7. Tried to cut a ball around at tree but hit the tree instead. Ricocheted across the fairway into more trees. Third stroke short and into a bunker. Blasted out. Made a downhiller for bogey.
Snedeker bogies No. 6. Immelman now with a 3-stroke lead, 11-under to 8-under.
3:40 ET - Tiger Woods is through six and yet to do anything. Bogey on No. 4, birdie on No. 5.
Immelman gave a stroke back. Snedeker started bogey-eagle-bogey, with the eagle being one of those putts where you say, "thank goodness it hit the hole." Steve Flesch looking very solid so far.
Trevor Immelman -10 (4)
Brandt Snedeker -9 (4)
Steve Flesch -8 (5)
Paul Casey -6 (4)
Tiger Woods -5 (6)
Stewart Cink -5 (6)

No one really seems to be making a move.
Immelman - clutch par putt there at 9.

I don't, yet.
I'm fairly new to town - just moved here for good in November. I'm not very good (usually shoot around 90) and I don't have a lot of dough, so I generally play pretty cheap courses. But I understand that there are a few public courses around town that are fairly nice and reasonably affordable.
Where do you play?

pretty much the same
One of my favorites around town is still Wolf Creek down on the southwest corner of town.
I live in Tucker

I'm right near East Atlanta Village.
My clubs are currently stored in Huntsville, but I should be able to get my hands on them in about a week.
I can usually lay out $25-$35 for a round. Twilight specials are my bread and butter.

Candler Park
It's one of those places that you HAVE to play to be a real Atlanta golfer.

Now, after the leader's adventure at 16...
If things were different, though, they wouldn't be the same.
