US Open Playoff Live Thread: Tiger Woods vs Rocco Mediate

18 Holes of Free Golf on Monday. Yes, Please!

Very simple advice for Tiger Woods this morning: use an iron on the 1st hole.

I'll take free golf any day of the week, but particularly on a summer Monday morning/afternoon this is some sweet tonic.

Rocco Mediate is an unlikely foe for Tiger, and whether it was intended or not, the 45-year-old veteran wore his own victory red.

Giddy up. For those at work, I'll keep the live thread going in live blog fashion as much as possible.

Tiger still uses his driver on one and hits what should have been a bad shot into the right rough. Somehow bounces back into the fairway. He's not the guy that needs luck.

Let's just hope this stays relatively close. Tiger up 1 thru 1.

Can't get out hopes up too high now can we?

Both these guys are hacking away -- both in the right rough with approaches on No. 2.

Rocco is rocking some serious flair, could work at Chachskies for sure.

Rocco sticks it on No. 3. Have to love his reaction ... wanting it in the hole. Should be up by 1-strole after this hole.

Not exactly beautiful golf this morning. Maybe ESPN could give us a PIP of Tiger's wife to help balance this out.

Any clue what Rocco's wife looks like?

And now we head to NBC and have to listen to Bob Costas...

So Rocco should have just packed up and went back to his hotel room at the turn.

Will there ever be a golfer that Tiger doesn't absolutely humiliate head to head? Grow some balls, Rocco.

As a shout out to the Spelling Bee, I'll gander Mediate comes from the Latin root word for average.

Maybe you should wait before counting someone out...

Just because he hates bloggers doesn't take away from the fact he's one of the most knowledgeable and well-spoken sportscasters in the game. I wish he was calling this instead of Miller and Hicks, I'm sick of listening to them make out.

It really isn't the blogging thing it is more that I find him to be really smug and kind of full of himself in a douche baggy way. No doubt that he is very well spoken and better than the two knuckleheads who did this morning but just not a fan of Costas.
