Scoring From The Rough

Thanks to reader Tuco for the link to this interesting Tiger-related stat from his play at East Lake earlier this month.

3 FOR 19: The number of strokes that Tiger Woods was under par on the 19 fairways that he missed after 36 holes of the season-ending PGA Tour Championship. Translated, that means he hit it in the junk 19 times and was 3 under par on those 19 holes. This is more than scrambling; this is mystical. If he had played in Colonial days at the Salem Open, he would have been burned at the stake (after he was presented with the trophy, of course).
