So a mate of mine just got his first ps3, along with move and tiger woods 2011. Problem is TW2011 needs to be updated to use the move and he doesn't have all that brilliant internet access.

Is there a way for me to copy the update from my ps3 to a usb and give it to him?
 
The update is on the game disc, just use that.
 
You can't copy it but can download it and put it on you USB. Create Folder PS3 and inside that folder create another folder Update and save it there.

Yeah...thanks for that...if the game did automatically update though when you put the disc in this would be great but unfortunately it seems that neither of our discs came with the update. I had to download it which is complete and due to my friends internet connection his download stops at random. Thus the question on how to copy it from one PS3 to the other.

You wouldn't know where to download this or other updates from would you?

Check eu.playstation.com. Search the site for updates. Download and copy to usb as above.
 
If you use the Proxy method, you can download the updates on your PC and transfer it to your PS3.

You still need some sort of internet connectivity on the PS3 to start the download. This lets you get the link that the PS3 is using to get the update.

Download the file on your PC, point the proxy server to the location on your PC and the PS3 then gets the update nice and quick from the PC instead of downloading by itself.

I know there was a site that used to have the links for all the Game updates that came out.
