It already looks like Tiger Woods is gonna make this PGA boring by running away with it. Ho, hum. So I take this chance to applaud the older guys who are hanging in there by making the cut. Mike Allen, age 50. Tom Lehman, age 50. Corey Pavin, age 49. Fred Couples, age 49 and right on the cusp of 50. Kenny Perry, 49. Bob Tway, 50. Tom Watson and Sam Snead notwithstanding, that's a pretty remarkable performance for six guys either on the Senior Tour, or eligible for it within the next year, all to be playing the weekend of a major featuring 98 of the top 100 players in the world. Good stuff. I applaud.

Actually, Quin, the fact that all these old guys are competitive fits in very well with your theme about the relative greatness of Nicklaus or Woods which you posted on 8.10.09 @ 4:45PM. Were guys this far past their athletic prime competitive in Nicklaus' day? Did a 59-year-old ever finish second in a Mojor then. I think that the fact of these older players competitiveness is evidence of the overall relative weakness of the field.
