    Ernie Els is a class act.



    I though Levet did the best thing of the tournament, lifting Els up at the end. Very cool.





    those crazy french...

    Yeah, those nutty French golfers. I'll never forget Van de Velde at the British Open a couple years ago.

    Ernie in da house! That was a great final round, and I;m glad the Big Easy won it.



    How about Tiger going from an 81 to a 65?



    Jean Van De Velde!! Ahahaha! <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laughing]" />



    Levet should've opted against using driver. That was his mistake. The tournament could've been his. I kinda wanted Maruyama or Sergio (actually expected Sergio to do better)to take it.

    Well, thank goodness Woods lost. I didn't mind him at first, but when he recently said he would probably win two (natural, ie, in the same calendar year) slams, I realized he's just an arrogant prick.He showed no respect for his competition. A$$hole. I hope his game falls apart completely.

    Yeah, Tiger's arrogant...



    What other pro athlete would handle themselves the way Tiger did after blowing up for an 81 on Saturday? He lost out on a chance to win the slam, which I'm sure was pretty important to him, but he didn't go cry and complain. Arrogant? Tiger's about the least arrogant athlete of the quote on quote phenoms/superstars. Go watch the Golf Channel or something, obviously you have no clue of Tiger as a competitor and as a person.
