While We Were Away...

...Tiger rolled off 7 straight birdies (well, four added on to yesterday's 3), DiMarco stumbled, and it's looking like it'll be #4 for Woods. He birdied 7-13! Wonder if he would have birdied 10 if he had to play yesterday's mud ball? But here's what I want to know: can we just follow the Phil-Vijay pairing with updates on Tiger?

Not many early Sunday reads, but still a few on ball manufacturers favorite subject. Alan Blondin in the Myrtle Beach paper has plenty of fun insights and a nice overview, with quotes from Dick Rugge, Bob Combs and Larry Dorman. Does the USGA seem to be positioning themselves to do something by pointing to the near completion of their three year study? Len Ziehm in the Chicago Sun Times has some fascinating revelations about the Masters ball talk, including a tour Hootie and Jack took around the course, ending with Hootie asking, "what are we going to do about the ball?" And John Huggan writes about the Masters and talks with European Tour head George O'Grady.
