Hermie happy, golf fans happy, CBS gonna be happy.  Two years ago, Tiger had problems getting out of his car.  Looks like a win and he missed a boatload of putts during the week. 

Walk up 18 going to be special.

I agree with everything you said, but CBS would have been even happier if this was playing out at about 6:00 Eastern with a full green jacket ceremony to follow.  But I'm sure they'll gladly take it.

Kudos to 9-9-9.

Predicted this 999 times over the last few years and, doggone it, nailed this one!

Seriously, though, fun Masters. Was stunned like most that Molinari choked. Was rooting for Koepka to make that putt so he could make Tiger sweat, but he gacked big-time. Tiger was the only one who totally kept it together on the back-9. It's nice to have him back.

Is Jim Nantz is leaving the dream. Redemption tour. Virginia and Tiger is a six day span.

7:00 eastern. Point taken. Replay should be a solid rating with Tiger winning.

Yeah, that was over the top by him, kept bringing up memories of father, etc., waiting for the TV closeup.  Tiger didn't fall for it.

My son and I were texting back and forth constantly during the last couple hours of the round. The 10th time they did a cut-away to the crowd, he texted: "I ALREADY am sick of Tiger's family."

Good for Tiger.     However, going forward, my rooting interests will be, as always, 'anybody but Tiger'.

Can I ask why? I'd personally love to see Tiger have the kind of sustained success where he's the prohibitive favorite week to week again.

Why?

Going forward, I certainly don't want him to be Dominant Tiger again, and I don't think he will be. He's getting older, and there just are too many good players now who respect him but don't fear or worship him. I won't care if he wins or loses, but I like having him in the hunt because golf is more interesting when he is.

Having said that, the fawning by everybody could push me into the Anybody But Tiger camp. Maybe that's where you are, too.

I mean, I'm already sick of some making this out to be the greatest golf accomplishment since balata golf balls were phased out!

Other players are overjoyed. If they can't win themselves, they are all in on Tiger. $$$$$$ talks.

You mean the mugshot version of Tiger....you probably have a point.

Got to the gate at 5:10am.

I'm the extremely visible patron while Tiger hits his third shot.

Sorry, golf is just different when Tiger is playing well.  I understand golf fanatics try to tell everyone it isn't, but it is.

It's like watching basketball with Jordan playing and hockey with Gretzky.
