Into the 4th day!
Europe still edging it..... so far! http://www.rydercup.com/2010/europe/scoring/index.cfm
Congratulations to our Europe Team & Monty's Boys!..... hard luck America!
It looked like Europe were going to win easily, but America came back strongly and played well.

It's The Masters ..... On the eve of four days of highs and lows.... and one Green Jacket up for grabs... who will it be this year ?
My money is on our homie. Lefty is due for another. Coming off a win and his short game is sharp.
Rick
I'd love to see a Tiger pairing with Ian Poulter and see Poulter get stuffed in a Port-a-John.
Lefty deserves to be the favorite with those three green jackets in the last six years.
Ok, with 5 Brits in the worlds top 10 right now .... i would like to see Lee Westwood do well...... or the young Rory McIlroy
Here's the Masters auto updated Leaders Board - http://www.masters.com/en_US/scores/index.html
Watching TV like many others Tres. Legendary and why Jack is revered. The noise also unnerved the competition.
Interesting analysis yesterday about "the southpaw edge" at Augusta. Most of the difficult holes jog to the left or have pin placements to the left. It is much easier to hit a fade with control than a hook. Statistics show the top lefties have almost a 3/4 shot better average on those holes. No wonder Lefty likes it and calls it his favorite course.
Rick
I see the young NI Rory McIlroy holding 1st place after the first 18. Can he continue his good form...? has he learnt from last years disappointment ?
There is a lot of golf yet to be played. Should be very interesting if the greens get as fast as they expect with the hot weather. Our course is still closed, snow still on the ground, but I'm gonna call the pro and ask if I can at least go hit some range balls I hate to watch this with out being able to go play.
Ohhhhhhh....... Woods had a stonker of a back 9 ! is he on an upward roll ? Rory is continuing to play well - the next 2 days is the real test for the youngster.
Ohhhhhh........ Wow! Rory Mc, still leading the way, and extended his lead to 4 shots. Can the young man hold it together for the last 18 ?
Watched the highlights last night..... Woods, i though would make a charge, but didn't look comfortable with his game.
The greens are CRAZY Fast!!!!! For example, one of our (BBC team) commentators put a ball down on an edge of a green.... didn't touch it, just BLEW on it ..... the ball travelled all of 15/20 yards!!!! That's how fast the greens are! Ridiculous! 
We hope Rory can pull it off today..... fingers crossed!
Our local has struggled, just out of reach. 'Twill be interesting to see if the youngsters can hang with the pressure today. Tiger is in the hunt. Don't look back kids! 
Rick
This is getting exciting! Blood in the water and the sharks are closing in.
What a finish. The youngster wilted, the rest choked and Charles Shwartzel finished with a 12! on the last 4. Well done.
Well, what to say about young Rory Mc ? After leading the pack for 3.5 days...... something snapped!! It was hard to watch the young man crash in such a dramatic way. I do hope the experience doesn't scar him too much.
Well done to SA Charl Schwartzel .... a name we will hear a lot more of.
As far a Woods..... the man is a sore loser, IMO.... listening to his very short post interview...... very unmagnanimous. He should take a leaf out of Rory's book, and listen to how generous he was in defeat.

I saw a brief interview of Tiger shortly after he finished and didn't hear any sour grapes coming out of his mouth. I was glad to see him play well and hope he recaptures his past glory. Golf needs him.
I was very saddened to watch Rory's collapse on the back nine after her had owned the tournament for three and a half days. I doubt yesterday will scar him because he's just too darn good.
I hope Charl Schwartzel isn't a flash in the pan. The guy played a flawless final round. Looks like Ernie's got some new competition.
It was really sad to watch that melt down, been there done that, I can't imagine the pressure of leading that tourney. Charl was playing the best golf and deserved the win. Tiger seems to think that it was owed to him,short answers, kinda smug.
