Shocked they didn't take that match 9 and 8 with great play like that.

Moon, have you ever played golf? Myself, I've shot 105 and 85 on consecutive days. (Yes, I'm a hack) How you played the day before means nothing. For the record, Stricker is injured (but played well tonight) and is the fifth ranked player in the world. Tiger has won 14 majors and was playing like..Tiger. So yes, I still say you are full of crap.

Yes play golf all the time. I know Stricker was injured which is why I was hesitant to put him in there.

It is great that these guys have done well in their careers and are ranked high but for this weekend they were the two weakest members of a very good golf team.

I defer to Mr. Couples' judgement in this matter...

He may of not played his best but garbage isnt even close to describing his play.

Garbage was appropriate the first day but probably a little strong for the the last 3 days where he was just poor.

I also liked the sportmanship displayed at this event. Very refreshing.

I watched most of it, and and as much as it hurts to agree with moon, Tiger was terrible for large stretches. Striker didn't play well either. Watson was really good early though
