Sunday Golf Recap – Tiger Wins the Buick

AUTHOR: Blake Lovell | IN: Buick Open, Greg Norman, LPGA Tour, Senior U.S. Open, Tiger Woods | COMMENTS: 4 Comments

Another great day of golf, as three of the big tournaments wrapped up, with some surprising and not so surprising outcomes. Let’s get to it!
BUICK OPEN
After Retief Goosen let me down last week when I picked him to win the RBC Canadian Open, it seemed only natural that Tiger Woods would lift my spirits by winning the Buick Open this week after I picked him on Wednesday. I know, not exactly a bold prediction, but surely Tiger would win a tournament after missing a cut, right?

So another golfing Saturday has come and gone, and to no one’s surprise, Tiger Woods is leading a tournament.
Woods shot a 65 today at the Buick Open to go along with the 63 from yesterday to put him atop the leaderboard at 17-under par, while Michael Letzig bogeyed the 18th to set him one behind Tiger heading into the final round on Sunday.
John Senden is at 15-under, while Matt Bettencourt and Vaughn Taylor are both three shots off the lead.

Another exciting day of golf, with several interesting stories to talk about here. Let’s jump right into it.
At the Buick Open, the big story of the day was Tiger Woods. Of course, that’s no surprise, but Tiger did surprise us by rebounding big time to shoot an incredible 63 for the day, and put himself tied for 5th for the tournament at 10-under par. Quite a step up from the tie for 95th from yesterday.
John Senden is your current leader at 14-under par after shooting a 66 in the second round. Michael Letzig is at 12-under, while Vaughn Taylor and [...]

Ummm…..Tiger Must Be Angry

AUTHOR: Blake Lovell | IN: Buick Open, Tiger Woods | COMMENTS: None Yet

Is is possible that Tiger Woods could miss a second straight cut? That’s the question we were asking yesterday after the first round of the Buick Open, as he was tied for 95th on the day.
So of course, Tiger comes out and makes us all look like complete morons this morning, as he shot a 30 on his first nine of the day (6-under), and has already added another birdie on the back nine as he through 11 holes for today.
If he keeps at this pace, he could very well break a few records today.

The three big tournaments for the week have kicked off today, with some interesting stories thus far.
At the Buick Open in Grand Blanc, there aren’t exactly household names topping the leaderboard after the first round of the tournament.
Steve Lowery shot a 63 to start off 9-under par, while John Senden is 8 under, and four guys ( Y.E. Yang, James Nitties, Vaughn Taylor, and Brian Vranesh) all shot 65 to stand two shots off the lead.
Meanwhile, Tiger Woods is currently tied for 95th after shooting a 1-under 71 for today’s round.

Another great week of golf is in store for us, as there are great tournaments in both the PGA and LPGA this upcoming weekend.
The Buick Open will be the place for the PGA players this week, held at Warwick Hills Golf and Country Club in Grand Blanc, Michigan.
There are two big stores surrounding the Buick this week. With starters, Tiger Woods has committed to play in this year’s tournament, so that brings about some buzz heading into the first round tomorrow.
