Tiger is back
 

Setting aside tigers personal life, I am so happy to see him on the course. Hands down, the best golfer of all time.

Happy to see him out there, would be more happy if he is in contention on sunday. Might not agree with things he did in his personal life, but love to watch him golf.

The only real revelry for or about Tiger is his past performance, on the golf course that is!

His presence will only detract from the real talent of today as some of the media and announcers tend to live in the past and over cover his current play at the expense of those playing much better golf.

I blame those doing the coverage...not Tiger.

Who??????

That seems to go with being a celebrity with a large fan base. The media will fix on the story of Tiger's getting back in the game or not. I hope he returns to his old form but his body might not allow him.

I, for one, am happy to see Tiger playing again. I hope he does well.

I personally do not think Tiger will ever play again as he did during his prime years.

Then he was a fresh mind focused on all that was golf.

His mind has since become polluted with too many negatives including marital and physical stresses and strains. All of which cause him to not to be able to focus on the "game".
Now all his energies are focusing on needing to "come back".

His demeanor is not capable of handling or accepting his current level of capability/play. Hence he has become his own worst enemy!!

I don't think anyone has any idea of what Tiger can handle mentally or physically. We will have to wait and see. I'm rooting for him too. He has a tremendous amount of talent. If anyone can make a successful comeback, it will be Tiger.

You said media and announcers but left our his biggest supporters, his competition. They understand that he changed the game and gave them the opportunity to experience the golf at a different level. The purses they play for, the venues they play on, the physicality they strive for all are traced to Tiger. Love him or hate him, but all those that you feel have more talent all owe what they have today, to Tiger. He will never play as he did before, he will never play as many tournaments as he did before and he will never win as he did before. But when he does he will command the respect of the others on the course and he will attract a fan base that realizes what he brought to the game and will support him.

Well said !! :agree:

Well said sir. :bigbow:

He's in the lead right now. Hope he can keep it going all weekend.

Easy, peeps! It's only day 2 in the comeback. I hope this comeback is long-lived; golf needs a middle ager to push the young-guns.

I give him a lot of credit for overcoming numerous obstacles and wish him the best.

I may watch golf again.

Absolutely!!!!

Excellent post!

I agree 100% with your post. Well said

Apparently...just like in the past few years tiger isn't back...going backwards perhaps...every time he returns to the tour the pundits say this is the time of his great rebound...unfortunately it's not even close to the same person. Besides being in his 40's and over muscled compared to his "great" years his mental baggage won't change. There is something to be said for living an honest life....

Tiger isn’t back and he won’t be back he is done. I don’t appreciate his bad temper or his foul mouth.

Come on folks, some of us don’t have a problem with his race. He is hands down the best golfer in the world and for golfers like me, he is a joy to watch.

Tiger has a long way to go before getting anywhere near where he was.

I don't care if he's black, white, blue, green, or purple...that is a highly debatable claim. In fact, when you use the present tense, it is flat out wrong...not even close.

Plus, some of us "folks" might consider things like character when we decide whether to like an athlete or not...something which Tiger sorely lacks.

For clarity and accuracy the last statement above needs to be modified to reflect the current fact of life.....he "was" the best golfer.
Recent and current performances underscore that reality.

If he makes it back good for him. If not he will be no different than all other past great golfers still playing golf....somewhere back in the pack!!

Correction: Was in contention for the Best Golfer Ever. When his gold digger wife swung the 7 Iron He lost all his confidents in that club due to the scare that got etched in his saddle riding brain. :D

Now you can say he's back in the saddle again, we'll see if he gets bucked off or jumps off as in the pass. :D

Shame! He could of been the best Golfer ever, but got side traced.. Just like Mike Tyson! But, Mike had lots of help!

Amen

Palmer and Nicholas changed the game. Tiger just took the ride

Wow. Living in The Villages, I would think all you folks who agree with this post are old enough to remember when golf really became big-time. It was Arnie, with the help of Jack, Gary, Lee and some others...both mostly Arnie if you have to pick one person.

Nobody can argue Tiger's ability as a golfer. Or that he was the biggest attraction of his era. But to argue that he took golf to the big-time and is the one responsible for the purses, venues, etc. is as wrong as wrong can be. That person would be the General...of Arnie's Army!!

Bee-eye-en-gee-oh!

"a tiger can't change it's stripes" keep wishing

All this adoring dribble regarding Tiger Woods makes me want to Gag. He was and still is a grumpy jerk who could care less about all his adoring fans.

Get over it .

Tiger Who ?

It was actually a 9 Iron :plane:

Who cares?????? It seems like all the TV shots were focused on him and announcers were fawning all over him, so who cares? Quit taking up a slot that could go to a “hungry” young gun that can at least hit more than 3 fairways.

Once you earn your way on the pro circuit and win the opens you get free pass till the grave if you want. Tiger can play as long as he wants. He will be the young gun on the senior tour. Tiger had it all except responsibility once out on his own, he failed miserably. I think would of been different out come if his dad was still living. IMO slipped in with the wrong crowd. But, when Your worth half billion plus ? it ready don't make difference.

9 iron, ouch, even bigger divot etched in his brain:1rotfl:
