    If he spits the bit this weekend I'll agree with you about being the Shark's maid of honor.

    I think the engraver can start practicing McIlroy. Westwood is the only one on the leader board I would be scared of and 9 back is just too far.

    so a guy that was 10 strokes up is going to hold on. I could have probably gotten 100:1 odds with the field. meaning of course hes going to win.

    I am just glad he's not going to do so ugly.

    Simmons tweeted that he made a bet at 12:1. I thought it would have been more.

    For all the Rory is the next Tiger people.

    One stat I saw on ESPN.

    In their first 100 starts on the PGA tour

    Rory - 3
    Tiger - 28

    I doubt Rory has 100 starts on the PGA Tour.

    You are right as usual I blindly listen to the rubes at ESPN.
    I checked he has had 35 starts on the PGA
    He has had 86 on the European Tour according to his stats
    European Tour - Players

    So he is well above 100 overall. But you are correct my initial quote wasnt correct.
    But it still hold true, throw out the European Tour and just take his PGA and he is still well behind Tigers pace in his first 100.

    Again not saying this kid is good, He is great and his swing is amazing to watch. Just saying everyone saying he is the next Tiger Woods might want to tap the breaks a bit. I heard that about Sergio and others.

    I'm surprised he has 35 starts. Since he isn't a PGA Tour member he can only play a handful of tournaments besides the majors and the WGC events.
