Behold the Tao of Woody: After shooting back-to-back rounds of 65 and working his way into the final twosome on Saturday with Tiger Woods, golf's resident philosopher, Woody Austin said of the world's best player, "When he's playing well he's not hard to beat, but he's hard to catch." 

And that restaurant has gotten so crowded that nobody goes there anymore.

Woods, who played the first 27 holes of the tour championship in 13 under, which is where he stands (alone at the top with a two-shot lead over Austin) going into the weekend, looked exactly as you'd think he would when asked about Austin's comment. His first response was, "Excuse me? Say again." When the quote was repeated Tiger stared for a second and then said, "I don't know what to say to that." 

No one else seemed to, either. But that's Woody Austin for you. Yogi would certainly be proud.
