Nick no. I am back here. More important things to do. Jim over to two. Steve marino up the hill for his birdie at the second. Playing on a Major Medical extension this season. He played six times last year. He has been flying by the edge on a number of occasions today. That was a bonus coming from the rough with his second. His caddie there, a little low five. Lets go to the third. Jim and nick watney. Nick ok. Different hole location. It has been left for the three days. For the two days that they play it. Now they have it in the front righthand corner. Here she comes. Jim starting to crawl back a little bit. Nick keep looking. It is coming. Jim tiger is in the clear there over at two. Yeah. He is just in the semi rough wherever that is. The sixth, i believe. There is nothing really, spectator mounds and some pine trees there, but no real problem. While tiger waits, erik compton with his second putt for the par. Straight to the middle. Good 2putt from longrange for erik compton. Disappointing bogey at the start though. Back to 8under. Brad fritsch is last to putt for his par. 9iron from 135, by the hole to this point. Biggest thing for tiger is getting a yardage from over there. Actually he is walking up to the green right now. The mark of a really good caddie. Li have this with my trapezoid and g. P. S. All of the other things, i got it at 135. While we wait to see how close joe gets it. Plus or minus 20. But with his experience i think he will be within a couple for sure. Yeah. Joe will have it right. It is amazing how you are used to pacing the yardages. Looked pretty much spot on. These guys will be able to guess the yardage by looking at the flag within five yards every time. Why do you think that we cant use the laser g. P. S. . Save a lot of time here . It certainly would. I would like that think it be introduced. Just walk up to your ball, shoot the number and go. I think it would save a lot of time during an 18hole round. Well, lets see if he comes up eight yards short. Pitching wedge. Into and off of the right. A kind of nice wind to help him get at this flag. In the back left. That tree is no problem in front that tree is no problem in front of him. Your laser was right. About 10 yards short. I still think joe was right to be honest. Just a little more breeze blowing up over the bluff there. Cool breeze too today, as we go to three. Jim nick watney with a birdie putt. Needs Something Like this to really get things going. He has done it. Watney with a birdie. His second through the first three holes. Aerial coverage being brought to you by good year. I am starting to nblet red shirt theory of yours, nick. And the demons sitting on his shoulder. Jim those first three names all have won this event in the past. Tiger of course six times. Snedeker, a year ago. Watney, 2009. Brandt is over there at the 10th hole, often another scoring opportunity. Lets go back to two. Well, steve marino getting ready to hit off of three tee. Tiger will wait for him. About 186 yards, 6iron down the hill into the breeze. It is all about trajectory here. Nick you have to make sure the manmade pigeons out there do not get in his line. Here they come. Jim what a kick. Yeah. Nick he flighted that beautifully. He kept it down. Jim lets go back to two. Nick there is enough going on on this one, ian. Jim it is not a good lie. He had to throw it up high with a lob wedge. Brilliant indeed, nick. Beautiful shot. Nick yeah. That really was. That was a beautiful shot. Yes. That ball really was nestled down in here. He will play it like a bunker shot, slide across it. That ball pops straight up in the air. Notice how the clubface stays open. Increases the lost as much as you can. Over to three. Jim fritsch. Also going with a 6iron. Also fighting it down. He has hung it out a little bit to the right. Nick that was a little bit short. It is short anyways. That one still pointing at the sky, that clubhead. Lhe missed a couple to the left. You know what happens after that. Nick yeah. It is all about reactions. Next to play erik compton and going with the 6iron. Jim going off across that bay. That is the village of la jolla. There is not anything good over there. Nick not a good signal. Hope that is in the short grass. The breeze is just picking up enough now. Jim lets move ahead to the 10th. This little dogleg to the left par 4. Brandt is in good position. Hole is cut way in the back. Dont want to go over. Most of the guys will come up about 20 feet short. Cant hit this one long. That will be nice uphill putt there to go 5under for the day. If he did bird te, it would get him to 12under and only two back. Lets go back to two. Tiger faces another one of those little putts that you really have to give your complete respect to. Here and pebble beach, the two hardest places to hole out on the pga tour. Beautiful view from here. It is not a science, putting on these greens especially. A little bumpy and wiggley. He was very happy to knock that one in. You see him joking there with Billy Horschel. That was not an easy little putt. World rankings on the side there. Tiger second behind rory mcilroy. 4. 2 points behind. Quite a good lead there for rory. Snedeker, no stranger to low scores around the south course here at torrey pines. He is three back of tiger woods at the moment. [ engine revving ] [ male announcer ] every car we build must make adrenaline pump and pulses quicken. To help you not just to stay alive.

Again, just to remind everyone we are extending our coverage here until the top of the hour on the east coast. And at that point you can follow the tournament on the golf channel for everyone out west, you will still be able to see the broadcast on cbs. Then tomorrow, with whatever is remaining as no doubt that last group will have somewhere around nine holes, maybe more to play. 4 00 eastern time on cbs and leadin coverage on the golf channel. Lets get out to 10. Well, the ocean is to the right. That is where it pulled. Good, solid par there. He has to Pay Attention the next two holes coming up, really long and difficult against the win. The setting sun these guys will be squinting right into. Lets go back to three. Jim fritsch. This is a chip shot he did not really fancy. Think he would have putted it if not for the big pitch mark. Jim live with the birdie putt from marino. Rolled in a long one at two. Nick just a little bit of a slicer here. Jim keep slicing. Three for steve. We saw comptons tee shot off of the mark to the left. Nick miraculously it stayed up. Jim this is his second a moment ago. Nick just wants to get it past that massive downslope. That is a sensible leave. Good news is that it stayed up. Bad news is that he got a really bad lie. So, that was a pretty good shot for his situation. Jim it is nice to be able to bring some of this first night coverage to everyone. Because this is a glorious stretch of holes. Three and then four coming up, which also has a lot of danger lurking in it. Nick four is pretty daunting. 456. It can play as long as 488. Jim here is compton for his par at the third. Nick little bit too much. Jim bogey at one. That little one for a bogey at the third. Compton and fritsch, who is now about to step in. They both tied seventh at the q school. Again, torrey pines, golf mecca here. Public golf. Nick this is kind of surreal, almost with the glider in the background there and there are people flying around. Some of them look like they are in sleeping bags and the others in a converted toilet seat. It is bizarre. Jim all in how you look at it i guess. Nick the guy spiraling. Did you see that . Upwards of 20 among here. Nick clunk. Clunk on that one. Every now and then a drone of nick faldo zooms by. I am presuming it is unmanned. Jim cruising along the fourth hole that you were talking about, nick. Nick cant wait to see tiger on the third and it will be interesting to see how he deals with the fourth. Jim bogey for fritsch. Nick a lot more slope in the side of these greens. People think i will bail out to the right and chip it on. But it is a pretty steep bowl there in that front righthand corner. Jim tiger and his group have waited for a while. Of course he hit a beautiful shot when he was playing the third round earlier today. Nick it is great to see that. That is under full control, really trapped the ball beautifully on a very difficult hole. That was 201 yards this morning and it was pretty cold and damp conditions. Now we have sunshine and breeze to deal with david feherty. Yeah. And he has had to look at it for 10 minutes as well. There is that infinity edge at the back there. There is a Little Movement in his line to the short right of the green. That looks like a wonderful spot. Nick i think if you nail it on the front righthand corner. If you pull it into the middle of the green it will kick back towards the flag. But right now maybe just enough going on in tigers mind that it is not as easy as it looks 6iron. He made a very nice swing. Nick he sure did. Drilled that one in there perfectly. Nothing wrong with the iron swing. It is the big sticks, the ones that are causing the trouble. When you are coming down from such a height you dont want the ball to stay in the air for that length of time. Over to four. We will find nick watney in that right rough. Tee has moved up today. Most of the guys, well, nice. That is the way to judge it. Most of the guysville about a 6iron or 7iron into this hole today. Those are the waves crashing in. Good surf day today.

Les not get ahead of ourselves. Oh jim one point today tiger had a lead of six. Snedeker, off 54hole totals began the round seven back. His fourth round was underway while tiger was still playing his third round and brandt made a couple of early birdies. Now he is within three. Seven, a year ago was the margin that he made up and eventually won in a playoff. Back to four. Trying to get to 11. Good. Beautiful right there by nick watney. You can see that he is getting off to a very, very nice start. Here is a man that knows this course very well, pat perez played a lot of golf here as a young man including the junior worlds with tiger. Lovely shot here at the eighth. Good chance for a two there for pat perez. He is at 8under. Well, that has turned out to be a glorious afternoon. A little chilly. Sure the guys up high in the canopy are very cold. Jim again, our coverage will be continuing at the top of the hour on golf channel. But for those of our the west coast you will still get the feed on cbs. Stay right where you are. We are go to stay with it all the way until darkness, until play is called tonight. Well, back to the third hole. Billy horschel. He has a long one here for birdie. About twothirds of the way down tiger might want to step in and take a peek at it. It will be tracking right on his line. Billy had a rough day. He hasnt made a lot of anything on the greens. But he kept his chin up and made a nice run at the last. Just that length, you know. When the shadows start to get longer, nick. You know the footprints, these greens are absolutely superb. The first thing in the morning with nobody on them, wonderful putting surface. But they hold a footprint it. Is the nature of the grass. Nick they have had like 27 holes of traffic on them now. I know they recut the hole location but that corner of the greens is where the guys would walk off the righthand side. And it grows unnaturally or naturally unnaturally. Naturally and unnaturally inconsistently. That sentence was complete. Jim give us an idea what this will do, david. It should have a little left to right in it. He is looking at the end where Billy Horschel left his putt is downhill right to left. So, he may not want it to top theyll way at the end. Steve marino had this. You have to keep this one high. High to his left. Jim for birdie, walk its in. That is a big turn right there. Jim i mean, to get through those first three holes, first the fairways missed and then make a birdie on the third. Thats huge. So, the lead back up to four. He played that hole in four shots today. Very impressive down that hill. Jim again, coverage continues on cbs on the west coast. Those of you back east, you can follow the broadcast. We will be shifting over to the golf channel on the east coast. We have to figure another hour and a half to go. Nick yeah. Jim of play here in the fourth round. Snedeker and watney trying their best to push tiger to the finish line here. Nick tiger should get through nine holes in about that time. Jim want to remind everyone that again, tomorrow it will be the wrap up to the Farmers Insurance open 4 00 eastern time on cbs. As a preamble there will be leadin coverage on golf channel tomorrow as well. Tiger is going over to the fourth. That is a daunting tee shot after missing two left. Nick he hasnt hit that irway yet. He was left earlier in the week and well right in his third round. Jim all right. Golf channel coming up back east. And cbs out west. For nick faldo and all of the crew, jim nantz saying thanks for being with us. We hope you will stay with us as we continue things from the Farmers Insurance open
