The PGA Tour needs to be praying that Phil makes it to the Finals to try to salvage what little ratings they can get. Too bad they don't rig their tournaments like the NBA does.
It does suck that Tiger is out, I was really looking forward to him making a run. In the long run it might be a perfect scenario for him. He got the rust off, the nerves were tested, the knee was tested, he knows that he is back and has the juices flowing. At the same time he played three rounds total this week, there won't be any long time effects on his knee for that.
Expect to see him at Doral, and expect him to win there for the seventh time.
