I have seen exactly zero minutes of this years tournament...and I doubt that I will have time to watch of this weekends action until after the fact.

Well, I've had a little time to relax and watch some of the action this afternoon. Woods just make the turn at 9 even-par for the day with three players (one of them Harrington) sitting at -5 and three others are -4. Let's see what happens on the back-side...
...Harrington is now at -6, but Vijay Singh is falling apart at -3. Anyway, Tiger hasn't played particularly good or bad, but he has clearly fall back to the field. This is shaping up to be a great finish tomorrow.
Leaderboard:
T. Woods -7 (E)
P. Harrington -6 (-3)
E. Els -5 (-4)
L. Glover -4 (-1)
H. Stenson -4 (-4)
Y. Yang -4 (-3)
S. Kjeldsen -4 (-3)

It's a three man tournament going into the final round if you ask my opinion:
Leaderboard:
T. Woods -8
P. Harrington -6
Y. Yang -6
L. Glover -4
H. Stenson -4
E. Els -3
S. Kjeldsen -3
Tiger Woods should be pairing with Yang since he finished his round before Harrington. It should be a good final round...if the weather doesn't spoil things tomorrow.

Forget about Yang. He was on fire today so he'll likely fall apart tomorrrow like Singh did. It's still Tiger's tournament to lose, but Harrington still has a shot. Nice showing by Glover. Perhaps he's not a one hit wonder.
Unfortunately, I have to run to the office for a few hours this afternoon so I won't start watching today's recording until early this evening. It's too bad Woods and Harrington aren't together in the final pairing. As for Yang...I am not ruling him out just yet since he beat Woods in Shanghai back in 2006. However, with a 2-shot lead Tiger just needs to play his game and take care of business.
Ihit a 3-iron 210 yds., my 8-iron is 160 yds. all day. Phil's numbers are not unusual for a touring pro.
I've said this before: If Tiger tests negative for steroids, what's the point of testing anyone else?
I just caught-up to live TV...and Mr. Yang is one-shot ahead with two more holes to play. Excellent tournament!
Wow! Both players choked on 17...Yang could have sealed it, but he's on to the 18th with a one-shot lead. If you haven't been following this tournament, tune into CBS as the players talk over the 18th tee.
Congrats to Y.E. Yang - this years PGA Tournament Champion! First asian-born player to win a major championship.
Tiger completely choked today. He had a 2 shot lead coming in and shoots a 75. Even par would have put him in a playoff.
Yes, but Yang is now 2-for-2 against Tiger. As I mentioned throughout the season, there are a lot of really good young golfers on the tour right now. Tiger will have to bring his "A" game if he hopes to win the majors...a B+ isn't going to cut it.
I don't think he choked as much as got frustrated. He had probably a half-dozen putts lip the cup.
