Masters Round 3 – Woods in 3 way tie for lead
November 14th, 2009 by Doogs
The worlds number one golfer returned from the stratosphere in the third round of the Masters with an even par 72, joined on 10 under with Nitties and lefty Chalmers who both shot 69s. Tiger was more intense, had taken some agro pills, and wasnt happy with a number of wayward shots, at one stage slamming his driver into the ground after a bad shot sending it bouncing over the gallery! His tee shot subsequently sailed over the gallery too! Tiger also missed a couple of makeable putts as the greens sped up.
Chalmers could be the man to take on the Tiger, he is the only player in the field with 3 rounds under 70. Nitties is also playing some solid golf and missed a makeable chance late in the round to take outright lead.
The greens are now firming up and speeding up, and if the wind picks up tommorow, the final round is going to be a cracker. Tiger will need to settle down and play like he did on Thursday. Will he run away with the title, or will an Aussie step up and tame the Tiger. Apparently a bookie paid out on Tiger winning the tournament after 2 rounds!! A huge call, Tiger is not a sure thing, Id be putting some money on Chalmers or Nitties for the win. The course is also fighting back after Tiger started dismantling it earlier in the week, would love some wind to sort the men out from the boys!
