Birdie-birdie on 17 and 18 and Immelman closes with the lead well in hand. But Brandt Snedeker has been just as much fun to watch, and seems to be having an even better time.
What goes around comes around: on Thursday, Mickelson hit a pin and the ball dropped in the hole, saving a hopeless par. But yesterday he hit a pin again, this time on an iron shot, and the ball, with tons of backspin that would have set it down perfectly, instead caromed like a superball and almost ran off the green.
Somebody found something at The Masters that wasn't named: a pond. Even some of the trees have names there. The holes are all named after foliage on them.
On moving day, Tiger made a small move, not a big one. His long putts are all close but he can't find an eagle. We did see the graphic again: he's never won a Slam in which he's trailed after 54 holes. And the other graphic: he's a couple strokes over on the 3s and 4s lifetime, but 88 strokes under at Augusta on the par fives.

What a great historic day this could turn out to be!
Four great golfers in front of Tiger at the Masters!
But none of them have ever won a major and Tiger has won many.
Tiger publicly states that being 5 strokes back on Sunday is no big thang! He says he's done it before,
but he never has in a Major, will he make history today, will this be one for the ages?
Will the great young South African Trevor Immelman who has put together 3 great rounds of golf so far be able to withstand the pressure of the predatory Tiger Woods stalking him from behind, the crowds screaming and cheering him on, Tiger feeding off the fans enthusiasm, focused, mean, fist pumping, taking chances, walking towards the 18th hole, the green jacket, History!
