The Biggest Cheer of the Series

Came when Tiger Woods snuck in his birdie putt on 18 to force a playoff with Rocco Mediate. Players gathered around TVs all over the Amazon Room jumped to their feet and shouted and cheered as Woods pumped his fist in triumph. Players are standing in the aisles talking about the putt and watching replay after replay.

In other news, there's a poker tournament going on here. Hopefully the folks playing in it will start to take notice.
