Meltdown.

Melt down? Quit?? Whatz up with that???? …… WOW……it’s gotta be my fault, I didn’t bench him after yesterdays round. What is really surprising it the “no mas” attitude coming down the stretch. Phil should be fired up to take a run at the elusive #1…….Go Phil!

Well if Phil wins this week, he will be only one win away from becoming the Worlds #1. Just finishing in the top ten this week , combined with a Tiger missed cut will certainly bring ever so close to taking over as # 1. I for one would welcome that and I think it would be great for golf in general. Sre would make for some great golf history and a big boost for Phil as his Wife and Mom are still going through some rough treatments for Breast Cancer.

Some of y’all sound surprised by his poor play. His game has been smoke and morrors since before he beat Rocco. I think I’ve covered that already. This is the version 2 of TW. The post ACL TW. He’s never gonna be the same as I’ve said countless times. Now, he’s got to work his azz off just to compete. Of course, given that he’s fessed up to bangin’ 121 women while married to Elin, that appears to be exactly what he was doin ! lol Oh, and in case anybody hasn’t noticed,…this will be the 4th straight event that Phil has finished ahead of TW. As Johnny Miller commented last year at the HSBC in China,“there’s a new sheriff in town, and he’s a left-hander”. TW will lose his # 1 ranking before the US Open at this rate. I’ll be surprised if he doesn’t withdraw from The Players. He hates the course, and it’ll only embarass him ,…….again !……………………Z

It’s always a little surprising when TW misses a cut considering how rarely it happens. Players miss cuts, and they all play poorly at times, (including the “new sheriff”) so I wouldn’t get too excited about it. I do finally agree with you that TW is not the same player he was but I think it’s more Hank Haney related than ACL related. I wouldn’t worry too much about it though, as he’ll still win plenty despite everything. Tiger will be fine (golf wise). What I find interesting is how well he behaved the last two days. Normally with Tiger playing that poorly we would have seen some rather bad behavior to go along with it. I think that speaks to what I and a lot of people have been saying; that he’s trying. I think he deserves a little credit for that. This isn’t easy for him, and he’s going through a tough time both personally and professionally. Let’s not kick him while he’s down.

No kicking, just having some good luck on occasion…lol. I wouldn’t worry to much about that as sooner or later my good fortune will dry up.

I don’t know about anyone here, but I could never play my best when going through life’s enevitable “lows”..the mind tends to be away from the golf course. That’s what I see when Tiger is playing right now. Everyone knows he is terrible with the driver and it will get worse. He reminds me of Seve when he escapes…but that kind of golf takes it’s toll on the player when the putts dry up.

Lerner an co. try to sensationalise golf…ratings etc. Tiger sells to the “fringe fan” if you like. Seasoned golfers, who played the game for many years knows all the highs and lows of the game, see through the hype. I’d be amazed if Tiger wins a major this year. He’d have to shut all his feelings off to do it…or see light at the end of the tunnel he finds himself in. I think once the Masters return was over, his turmoil came back to haunt him on day 3 and that was that. When he got interviewed by Kostis, one got the feeling he didn’t want to return too soon…but somehow he has this week. The Players might go the same way.

call it a day, the sooner they can mend their lives and move on. I just hope there are privacy laws in the US which prevent us sticking our noses into their divorce arrangements?
