11 Things I Learned From Round 3

-When Phil Mickelson goes down, he goes down in flames.

-Trevor Immelman has used it all. Skill, a safe game plan, and a whole lot of luck on the 15th.

-Brandt Snedeker is as relaxed under pressure as Tiger. Just when it seemed like he was going to blow any chance he had of winning, he came back and finished strong. Sure, he may not win, but it won't be because of his head.

-Tiger did a lot on Saturday, but could have done a lot more. Bogey-free golf was nice, but he missed out on about 2 or 3 birdie putts he rarely misses. The only way he can win is if Immelman chokes.

-Zach Johnson won't win, but he won't quit. Look for him to finish in the top 10.

-Andres Romero is a headcase.

-Don't count out Paul Casey for one moment.

-The weather was never really a factor. The wind picked up at times, but the real separator was each competitor's ability to stay calm under pressure.

-Everybody always says the Masters is won on the final 9 holes. I believe it will be won on the last hole. By this I mean you won't see the winner waiting around for people to finish. It'll be a 1-stroke victory decided by the 18th hole.

-The media's love affair with Zach Johnson is annoying, but thankfully will end in 24 hours.

-CBS is better than ESPN at golf.
