I'm probably jinxing things by posting, but I breathlessly await the cut hitting Tiger on the butt as he leaves the Quail Hollow Championship in Charlotte. (What a gorgeous course that is). He's +5 with six holes to play; projected cut is +1s are safe.

Given the autoerotic asphyxiation over Tiger playing a non-major at all, the TV folks seem blissfully unaware that some people are actually playing well. Billy Mayfair sure has been around a while. Phil Mickelson is hanging around and even DL3 is just three strokes off the lead.

Well, you'll get your wish. He lost interest and is trying to get our of there as fast as possible. He double bogeyed both 14 and 15 and is 9 over with 3 to play.

Gee... and here I thought throaty was going to make mention of Phil Mickelnuts, who was just named by Time Magazine, as one of the world's most influential people:

I can see it now... Bill Gates, Bono, ... Phil Mickelnuts.

Yep... makes sense to me. 8-} 8-}

This is really shaping up fantastically, two old-timers, Mayfair and DL3, and the effervescent Mickleson.

Also, I saw Michelle Wie was leading the event in Mexico, where Ochoa is playing her farewell tournament. She's fallen back to T2 today.
