Tiger vs. Rocco, 18 Holes, Monday

It's time for another 18-hole playoff at the U.S. Open. Tiger Woods vs. Rocco Mediate.

Mediate parred the 18th, playing one hole ahead of Woods and Lee Westwood, and get in the clubhouse at 1-under. Woods and Westwood teed off No. 18 at even-par. Both found bunkers. Both layed up. Both had birdie putts to tie Mediate.

Westwood missed. Woods made. And on to Monday we go.

why not ?

hey – the crowds aren’t going to be quite as big, and Tiger’s knee has another day of abuse tacked on. Rocco is going to have a good following in the gallery, so he won’t be alone out there, which usually happens to whomever Tiger is playing with. And face it – Rocco is having a ball – the pressure isn’t likely to freeze him the way it might most other guys. Rocco has a decent chance on Monday.

You have to love the guy. Before Tiger hit his approach, he said, “let’s see what happens.” When Tiger’s approach stopped on the green, he said, “we’re playing tomorrow.” Then he meets Tiger between the green and the scorer’s table for a handshake and congratulations ? That’s pure class.

"this ball will fit in that fairway"
