Not bad for a 21 year old kid.
He looks really good but he also seems to be a bit hard on himself on the green. Maybe it's nothing, but I saw him talking to himself after he narrowly missed an eagle putt and had to "settle" for a birdie. I think the question for him will be if he can deal with the inevitable adversity that a course like that could throw at him and how his mental game will hold up.

I'm pulling for him! Watching his group today was real fun.

And it's nice to see Tiger have a good round.
