Watching the Players and have a few things to say.

1.) Rory Sabbatini is repeatedly talking about how he wants to play with Tiger Woods in the final group becasue he thinks he can beat Woods. Hey clown, you did last week and he buried you. Rory, you are not even close to Tiger in any way. You're decent, but not even on the same planet as Tiger. Why would you provoke him like that? Has it ever worked? Stephen Ames challenged him at the Match Play last year and Tiger beat him 9 & 8. Rory, there's a reason 25% of PGA Tour players think you are the worst choice for a playing partner. That's a staggering number by the way.

Incidentally, as I write this, Rory just racked up his third straight bogey.

2.) This course is playing extremely tough right now as the leaders are coming back. Don't be shocked if Sean O'Hair and Peter Lonard are Saturday's final pairing.

3.) Woods is at the cut line right now at plus-four. He gets one more birdie, but doesn't threaten the leaderboard on the weekend. That's one bald man's opinion.

4.) Adam Scott told a story earlier in the week about Butch Harmon not charging him anything. I hope Mickelson got the same deal because he can't hit a ball straight. Lefty is in the lead at minus-four, but has found water and just missed the par-three eighth green left. In a vintage Mickelson move, he tried to hit a hybrid out of the sand at seven and the decision nearly knocked Nick Faldo out of the tower. Of course Mickelson made bogey, but his defense afterwards will be priceless.

5.) Are Australia and Texas the only places on the Earth that have wind? If you listen to a golf broadcast, you'd think that?
