That's Woods even though he made a very little effort to clean it up after he got caught, an effort that isn't working.

Here’s a short AP article posted on Fox, it’s official.
excerpt:
“GULLANE, Scotland – Phil Mickelson has won the British Open with a spectacular finish.”

I've got a baseball grudge against ESPN. Cardinals were dominating their division for weeks, nary a peep on the opening page of their website. As soon as the Pirates overtook them, it's all Pirates all the time. Yeah, I'm Cardinal biased, but ESPN is anti-Cardinal Nation in my opinion.
ESPN magazine had Pirates Play-off bound on the front cover this week, even though it's a three way battle in the NL Central, including Cincinnati, with all teams having great pitching.
Standing applause for Lefty, BTW. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy!
Tiger did not win and Phil did and yahoo...but in spite of Tiger cussin...that man has changed 10’s of thousands of children’s lives via his education opportunities
and btw..........the shot announcers sucked ,,,I mean s u c k e d
It's his lack of class on the course which the media covered up a lot before his wife caught up with his despicable and constant infidelity. After that happened he didn't have the media in his back pocket as before.
Ain’t no justice fo’ tigger at Muirfield.
Congrats to Lefty on winning on a course which requires more luck than skill. The course had dead grass all over from wind and heat & lack of rain. They must have a lousy water sprinkler system. The Scotts are notorious for being cheap. I would’nt pay more than 10 dollars to play on such horrible looking and desolate golf course. It was impossible to control direction and length of roll anywhere. This is not golf. It is (skill+luck) combined.
I have played on Cog Hill #4, Royal Oaks, Waverly, Columbia Edgewater, Portland, Harbour Point, Dungeness, etc just to name a few, and each one is so beautiful.
While I’m certainly happy for Phil, and he is miles above Eldrick in terms of class (hard not to be), it was good to see Ian Poulter in contention. I saw a Golf Channel show about him (Playing Lessons with the Pros, I believe), and Poulter is a first class guy. I was very impressed. I’d love to see him break through. He has a phenomenal record in match play competition.

Mike Tirico is one of the worst sports announcers, and the worst golf announcer of any Major Tournaments.
Tiger looks like he’s constipated.
Lindsey doesn’t look like the type that tolerates losers.
Yeah; now all the little black kids wanna grow up and marry white blonde women......

Tell ya what, NEWBIE; go wipe the snot off your nose. The flack is always thickest when you're over the target.......
