These two should be DOMINATING this golf tournament. Wow. Vijay is last (83rd) among the 83 to make the cut and Tiger is 2nd to last (82nd) in PUTTING, and yet both players still have a very good chance to win the tournament. If both of them would have made just a decent amount of putts, they'd be 5 under or better (especially Vijay, although Tiger's two 3-putt bogeys yesterday definitely hurt his score quite a bit). Goosen putted poorly on Thursday, but even so, he only had 32 putts on that day while Singh had 35 and Woods had 34 during Friday's round. Goosen also managed 28 putts on Friday, which is pretty good (not great, but pretty good compared to Woods and Singh who both had over 30 in the first two rounds). It will definitely be interesting to see how well Vijay and Tiger can putt this weekend. If they start making some, then they should make a big charge this weekend.
