Time for the annual celebration of The King, Arnold Palmer and everything he has given to and continues to give to the greatest game ever played.
With only 2 weeks to go to The Masters, this is Tiger Woods' tuneup for Augusta. Of course Woods heads a world-class field along with the very best in golf, including, Phil Mickleson, Jim Furyk, Ernie Els, Sergio Garcia, Adam Scott, Anthony Kim, Padraig Harrington, Geoff Ogilvy and last week's winner, Retief Goosen.

Looks like a TIE going to 18...if O’Hair makes HIS tap in...
and...
he...
... ...makes it. ALL TIED!
Those bunkers are still wet from the morning rain, and he cant get a break. But that bunker shot was amazing considering the lie and stance.
So we’re back to even and I can’t imagine play continuing after 18. And like Dan just said, If Zach can post -3, who knows what happens....
O’Hair has the shot of his life...
7 iron....
On the middle, two putt terrytory!
The Man puts in hole high with a great chance at Bird...Zach is above the hole...
Man, what a finish!
That was fun, fellas. Thanks!
This is freaking awesome. Kinda like when he turned out the lights at Firestone in 2000, when the gallery lit their lighters in appreciation. His last putt was struck there at 8:25, 20 minutes after sunset.
He only won this 12 minutes after sunset. So it wasn’t really THAT exciting.......
THE HELL IT WASN’T!!!
Welcome back to the winners circle E, you continue to set the standard everyone tries to fiollow. And Arnie couldn’t be more pleased too....
LOL! Ya beat me to it...........Just wow!
Did anyone on the planet think he was going to miss that putt? That’s why he is the best. That was fun to watch.
Did you see how dark it was when they finished??
My goodness this is unbelievable!!!
See ya in 2 weeks for the Masters!!
All I can say is that when I used to play, I missed 3 foot gimme's........
With that being said, if anyone is going to sink that putt for the championship, it will be Woods............What an ending! Good for him!
Ping me!
It was preordained.
Unbelievable...really.
The easiest thing, ping Zuben and you’ll be on the master golf list.
If he throws the thread up, you’re covered either way.
If I throw the thread up, I usually ping him to throw the list up......
We’ll get ya either way.
So anyways, the local 50,000 watt AM blowtorch here has a golf show every week. I decided to call tonight seeing they were giving away golfers away for the Masters for an opportunity to win some prizes.
Of course I talk about Tiger and the win and tthat bunker shot on 17. They give me my golfer..............Ben Curtis. It’s funny cause if you regularily follow these threads I talk him up a lot. Solid player from these parts and has a major too.....
I’m not displeased, he’s got the game. Let’s see what he does in Houston in prep for Augusta.
