Sergio early leader at TPC .. don't worry though -

	Well, Sergio Garcia took the early lead today with a -6. Others are still on the course, but this will probably hold up throughout the rest of the day and end up being low score for day 1. I wouldn't be too concerned about Sergio still being there on Sunday though. He seems to break through every now and then with a super round, but he just can't keep it going for any period of time. i would be surprised if he finishes in the top 10 come Sunday. Anyone think Sergio will win this week? Of course, he has about the same chance that John Daly does at winning in Italy! :)

	DD: Just poking a little fun ... actually I would love to see Daly win again. His surgery last month supposedly took care of a muscle tear in his stomach that was bothering him on his swing. He hasn't played that well even after the surgery, but it does take a while to get everything working again. A top 10 finish would be an excellent way to start making a comeback.

	Is there a list somewhere that shows the stats for the 17th hole?

	DD: I haven't been able to find any list or website dedicated strictly to stats for the 17th hole. I've been watching the tournament on the golf channel, and before play began, one of the analysts predicted 5 balls in the drink at 17 today. As I mentioned in my earlier post, there have already been 17 hit in the water, and the other analysts have been "ragging" on the person that made that prediction. The green has hardened up this afternoon and anyone going for the flag stick (at the back of the green, and not far from the water) is having a very difficult time keeping the ball on the green. Even the balls hit from the drop area are no sure thing.

	You're right IHO: that is a pretty funny statement. I was just passing on something I had read, but if I had thought about it a littlle, I would have changed it to "surgery to repair a flubber tear in his stomach".

	2cents, . His surgery last month supposedly took care of a muscle tear in his stomach that was bothering him on his swing. They determined it was not a muscle tear but he accidentally swallowed a beer bong after chugging a 6 pack in 14 seconds. As for Garcia...he certainly has the tee to green game...if his putter is fixed he can win any tournament. Short game confidence is all he needs. It SOUNDS like he has his putter fixed.

	CHER: That would certainly make a big difference. I don't know how many times I've watched him miss 5-footers, and sometimes quite badly. If he could putt (and maybe now he can), he could probably take off about 5 or more strokes per tournament. That would surely bring in a couple of wins. I think it's been over 50 tournaments since he last won, so I'll have to see it to believe it. Maybe this will be the week. He's dropped a shot today, but still doing okay.

	CHER: Just heard on CBS golf coverage that Sergio has made ONE putt of greater than 10 feet this week through the first 2 1/2 rounds. Not stellar by anyone's imagination. Still, he's hitting just about every fairway and green in regulation and giving himself a chance, so he's still hanging pretty tough. Good grief, imagine what this guy could do if he could putt.
