El Tigre jumps out early and eagles number 2 to get within one. I'll
probably jinx him, but I'm certainly rooting for Tiger to light up
Vijay.

Why are you classifying Vijay as black? 'Black' is not about skin
color per se, it's about the 'race'. Vijay Singh in Asian Indian.

Also, why is tiger black and not Asian? Doesn't his ancestry from his
mother's side count?

He's *Fijian* (of Indian descent).

If you don't like it, skip it. As far as I'm concerned, this isn't
spoiler. This event isn't tape-delayed and if you don't want to see
what's going on before it's on TV or before you've watched your tape,
then I suggest you don't get on the internet. I made a comment about an
event that is happening right now and I'll continue to do that as long
as I like.

I read your post because I thought you might come up with some sort of
insight to the two playing golf together. Instead you come up with this
"spoiler" crap again. If you read any of these postings, you would have
seen time and again it's not necessary to be the first to post something
here that most of us already know about.

Just what I=B4ve been thinking. By the way, isn=B4t it striking and
thought provoking that the leaders are both black? Honestly, two blacks
and 150-200 whites and the blacks are in a class apart. I can=B4t but
wonder if blacks are somehow mentally or physically better equipped to
play golf. Never been to the US and I don=B4t care about basketball, but
basketball is almost all black, isn=B4t it? Interesting. F

Interesting.

Color, as such, has nothing to do with it.

Preparatation, and application has everything to do with it.

moral: pay the price.

Just what Iīve been thinking. By the way, isnīt it striking and
thought provoking that the leaders are both black? Honestly, two blacks
and 150-200 whites and the blacks are in a class apart. I canīt but
wonder if blacks are somehow mentally or physically better equipped to
play golf. Never been to the US and I donīt care about basketball, but
basketball is almost all black, isnīt it? Interesting. F

Why do you say they are black?

Everyone, including VJ, knows that Tiger has his number.

But I think Tiger plays against the course-- focuses only on that-- and
lets VJ and the others just beat themselves.
