Tennis' top-ranked player became a father for the first time when his wife, Mirka, gave birth to twin girls Thursday. "I have some exciting news to share with you," Federer said on his website and Facebook page. "Late last night, in Switzerland, Mirka and I became proud parents of twin girls." They are named Charlene Riva and Myla Rose, and Federer said the girls and his 31-year-old wife are "doing great." "This is the best day of our lives," he said on his Facebook page.

Cruzer 1,992 Posted August 10, 2009 pretty incredible. not that he won - again. but that this time Tiger totally mind focked a 3-time major championship winner into totally melting down. the guy can't hit a fairway to save his life, is having a poor putting year, and still has managed to win what - 5 times in 12 starts this year? and the 178 yard 8-iron he hit stright up into the air and landed a foot or so from the flag - ridiculous.....

He's on fire right now, no doubt, it's awesome to watch. We all know Tiger is all about majors though, lets see if he can make it 3 weeks in a row. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sho Nuff 719 Posted August 11, 2009 I missed the whole tourney what was the "time limit event"? Tiger and Paddy were apparently "behind" most of the day. On the 16th they were told they were on the clock and they rushed a bit and most think Paddy felt it more and was more rushed once he hit a few bad shots. Tiger agreed and said as much and is now being fined for commenting. Though, I bet he can afford it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cruzer 1,992 Posted August 11, 2009 * paddy doesn't exactly play fast - but he's not glenn day by any means. * that group was behind most of the day, approaching the 16th t-box they were 17 minutes behind. * i know the rule, and no one person is above them - but it was the last group of the day. i would never put the last group on the clock - especially one that had Tiger Woods in it. that official is an idiot. * that being said, paddy did it to himself. he's a pga touring professional with 3 major titles - suck it up, get over your shot, and execute. he choked, plain and simple - and he knows it. tiger was kind in trying to take some of the heat off of him - but it was window dressing i think.

Agreed...I mean you have two guys like Paddy and Woods locked in a nice little battle down the stretch...why would anyone want to rush that? Suck it out for every minute of airtime you can...its not like the network is going to cut away and go to Heidi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then Tiger looked at his opponent and Paddy began to shiat in his panties, then chokes, and Tiger takes the title.

Though...Paddy didn't really choke until Tiger nuked an 8 iron 180 knocking it stiff within a foot or two. Then Paddy with a nasty lie goes at the pin (bad move) ends up deep in some crap...and rushed tried a flop that instead flew past the hole and into the drink.

Tiger should start his own tour. Much like Norman threatened to do years ago, but Tiger is a whole different animal and it would work.

Yeah...but that would also cripple Tiger's own goals of winning majors. If the PGA is crippled...PGA events are crippled.
