I grant you that Tiger and Vijay have yet to tee off, but right now this leaderboard looks more like a US Open than a Masters. No one is really going low right now. I'm impressed with Zach Johnson birdieing both par 5s on the back. If there is a recipe to playing well at the Masters, it is taking advantage of the par 5s. Especially 13 and 15. That gives you some breathing for the final three tough holes.
Very few low scores means that Phil is still in this thing. He's righted the ship with birdie on 8 and now, if he can get it in in -1 to finish with a 75, he'll be okay.
Ernie is done. Just like that. From the stats it looks like poor putting and a few missed greens killed the Big Easy.
Tiger and Vijay must be thinking they can really grab a hold of this tournament by shooting a good score. A 67 from either of them will basically force their main rivals to go really low tomorrow and take risks that may lead to a missed cut.
