"That is incredible but he looks 4," wrote another.
"The best Golfer of all times.. Tiger Woods ," said a fellow fan.

But Woods insisted he would be fit and able to come out fighting again tomorrow - provided captain Jim Furyk selects him, which he duly did.
He said: "I'm not going to work on anything. My game is fine. My putting feels solid. I'll be ready come tomorrow whenever the captain puts me out."
