Tiger basically puts himself out of contention on #6.

Tiger just hit a bunker shot i have never ever seen anyone try...almost lying flat on his side.
Bizarre decisions going on with him these days.

Why does the announcer keep claiming you can take the ball out of the sand with an unplayable lie? Are the rules different over there?

It's still a penalty stroke. Can't you take a unplayable anywhere? I thought you could take an unplayable when you're a foot from the hole if you wanted to technically.

Conspiracy theory time...based on Scott's body reactions, it looked to me like he knew it moved slightly before it moved that couple of feet.

Nonsense that he wasn't penalized. He saw it move the first time, then ran away before it rolled down the hill.
Can't cheer for a guy with a belly putter and that caddy.

The tournament wont be lost on that shot... It was with his extremely conservative shots off the tee all week. There was virtually no wind all week, but its pretty hard to be a pin seeker when you consistently have 200+ on your approach shots. You have to take a risk on the tee at courses like this. Im guessing he's leading the field in fairways hit, but who cares if most of your birdie putts are 25 feet.

That's what I figure. He was taking some practice strokes, and then at one point he sort of stopped and looked at it, and then walked up to the green weirdly. I don't know, to me I got the impression he saw it move. I saw it move on tv...I think. Can't be sure, but it looked like it.

I think they were also referring to a lot of the casual water in the bunkers. If it is submerged, you can move it to another point in the bunker without penalty. Taking it completely out is a stroke penalty.

Scott in big trouble

I've never seen a gallery duck before. McDowell could hit that shot ten thousand times and not do that.

Hell, he might win outright.
One of the least exciting majors in quite some time just got very interesting.

With how bizarre this final round has been, Adam Scott will probably birdie 18 and win.

And this isn't really even a choke per se. He's hit good shots (outside 17), he's just 3 putting a lot.
