letthebigdogshunt will miss watching him as he was one of the few on Tour that I enjoyed seeing play.

Yes, aside from watching the magical final round of the 86' Master. T.W. has that magic making us glued to the TV screen.

    Seems there are three potential scenarios here.

    1) Tiger's back is fine... he's using that as an excuse if he doesn't get off to a reasonable start and has little chance to make the cut.

    2) Tiger's back is fine. The 14-hr flight over left him stiff, then he slept on a different mattress at the resort where he's staying. Just an isolated situation that most likely had nothing to do with his previous back issues.

    3) Tiger's back is not good. 7 rounds back from 2 back surgeries and a near 2-year hiatus and he's already having to WD from only his second official event of this season. It is becoming quite obvious that his back is so problematic that he can no longer tolerate more than a recreational level of golf.

    I'm leaning more toward scenario three. It wouldn't surprise me to learn that his back was bothering him at Torrey last week but still tried to play through it.

    If he withdraws from playing Riviera in two weeks, then it's not just spasms.

    I don't expect him to retire any time soon, because he's still very much entangled with appearance fees, endorsement contracts, etc. not to mention how all of this ties into him continuing to develop and build his TGR brand.

    As long as he can keep his name out in the forefront with the media, he loses very little of that needed exposure.

      I watched the tournament last week and saw how he was set up and hit some God awful shots.

      This week all I really needed to do was watch his opening hole and I said to myself, " he is fucked up right now". I watched that one hole and went to bed. It was like watching my friends play a hole.

      I think his aim/setup are incorrect and his compensations cause him to play " army golf". He'll set up for a fade and thenbistead of setting up for it and taking a normal swing, he tries to put a fade swing on it like he's doing it from a normal set up. He's either going to double cross and go left or hit a push fade.

      Putting...let's find a GIR first then work on the putting.

      Just my opinions...but I hang around a lot of horseshit golfers so I see alot

      PA-PLAYA The 14-hr flight over left him stiff, then he slept on a different mattress at the resort where he's staying. Just an isolated situation that most likely had nothing to do with his previous back issues.

      He did fly commercial, due to all the airport protests; could not get to his own jet. Certainly could be something in that.

      This, for one thing, is something that has to happen.

      And, imo, if it does happen, he would/should feel more relieved and possibly find himself playing better. IF, he ever tees it up again Professionally!! As a lot of people have been saying all along, something mental.
      Hey, you're a wreck, get over it and enjoy the game, or get the fuck out. There is no in between.

            I think the same "advice" should extend to the media. They're ultimately the whores riding him to the very last gallop, trying to squeeze out every last ounce of mileage from the horse that carried them all these years.

            If they're serious about assuming that Tiger either needs to shite or get off the pot, then it stands to reason that they should not continue their 24/7 Tiger bullshit until he at least produces a gaseous fart, or even a mere fizzle.

            They perpetuate this bullshit. And they're getting upset because he's not living up to their expectations, and now they don't want to own it?

            Hah! Nice try.

            Stop talking about him 24/7, that fixes that.

              Is that a house cat skeleton 🤔....wtf....looks trbl! @Typhoon .... Say it ain't what's hitting the shelves 😳

                Really old thread, for a moment I thought Torpedo showed up!

                I'm no fashion guru, but it just looks like a polo and a hoodie to me. What's wrong with it?

                  ode Looks plain and the logo on the polo is misaligned, looks cheap. Sure it is not though

                      Sun Day Red. Don't forget the space. Sun Day. Not Sunday.

                      Makes total sense to me.

                      Do these come in a pre-washed up package?

                      I hope for TM’s sake they are paying Tiger a percent of sales and not flat fee. Because I think his brand is on the decline. Pretty soon he becomes Jack Nicklaus.
