The local sports humor editor agrees with you. He feels that it should be sudden death instead of another round to be played in an hour. But maybe the rules for major tournaments like the US Open is a full day instead of a sudden-death playoff.

I don't know what the rules are for The Masters, British Open, and the PGA Championship.

You are probably right, Rider. They would have to go into sudden death if El Tigre and Mediate are still tied. Boy, Tiger is going to be hurting some more after today, but he is a gamer. I guess that's why he is called "Tiger".

THere is no way Rocco will keep up for 18 holes. Tiger will smash him. It will be decided by the 3rd hole.

An 18 hole "playoff" seems a bit much to me. They should have just played one more yesterday.

With Tiger hurting, I wouldn't count out Rocco. The playoff is starting. Hope you all can log on and keep track.

After 8 holes, Tiger leads by one stroke. (He is hurting)

I agree but I assume it's all about making more bucks.

After the US Open and the Lakers-Celtics playoff games I'm exhausted!

No lie, don't you think they could have put the Lakers - Celts on at a more reasonable time?
