Advantages: It's not american

Disadvantages: The weather we saw on saturday

Ok he is easily the worlds number one golfer. But last week we all saw a side to Tiger that shows he is beatable and should not be so respected going out on to the course. The fact that the course was not all polished up and perfectly shinny weather like Augusta lead Tiger to somewhat self-explode on Saturday as he shot he's 81, which was just to rub it in 10 over par.
His game did not have the skill or variety to overcome the conditions on Saturday. His head also appeared not to be as professional as everyone talks about either, as one or two bad shots suddenly got to him. His clubs were flying and one or two bad shots turned into ten or eleven bad ones.
Whereas when you look at many of his fellow country men they were overcoming the bad conditions to shoot respectable level par rounds, so why should such a talent have faded so dramatically?
Yes he's number one in his own back yard, but when the conditions and crowd arent 100% behind him he isnt number one in my eyes. This is why our Brits that we have such high hopes for dont do the business in the majors in USA like Colin Montgomerie! The American crowds have a problem with him, and the weather is too hot for him, it's the situation Tiger had on Saturday but he has it every major for all four days of it.
The most insulting thing is that many of the Americans now want the British Open to be stopped and there to be only 3 majors all of which based in their homeland! I need say no more.
