Tiger WD

[mosesgolf]

It's one of those things we are going to have to live with and that is the roller coaster that will be Tiger's game. Every now and then he will show us the once in a generation and perhaps once in a lifetime brilliance of what Tiger has been all about. How many of us thought he was ever going to come back after his DUI and multiple back surgeries. And BAM he almost bags 2 majors in 2018, almost wins the FedEx Cup and then wins the Tour Championship. And then BAM 2019 Masters then BAM his back is acting up again. Oh well I'm waiting for another magestic 2020. First man ever to win a major at the age of 50. :smiley:

What is it if he WDs again?

He’s played 3 rounds in the nearly 2 months since the US Open. I think DNP is the most likely outcome.

Based on the fact that when he is healthy he competes well - He did have 4 top tens in the 2019 season including a Major and won the 2018 Tour Championship. None of us know how bad his back is so let’s see how it plays out.

It’s painfully obvious how bad his back is.

well according to Mark Steinberg...the move was mostly a precaution.

Like I said, I’d bet money he will play next week. He was out of this tournament already and would of been missed cut, didn’t want to push it and has the rest of playoffs. He’s more cautious now

 

[MountainGoat]

He has to play next week, or he’s out of the playoffs. He’s out of the top 30.

Brandel Chamblee is better than you so you should probably keep your opinions about him to yourself.

Brandel Chamblee is the best at what he do! The Golf Channel need to give him a raise....LOL! His job is to spout stats, golf history, and to be controversial… he excel In all areas. he's the best Golf channel has to offer.

Plus BC has a hot young wife....nothing but props in that area!....LOL! Just my opinion.

"For those looking to read the tea leaves: Tiger is listed on the Wednesday pro-am sheet for BMW (first group out at 6:50a) and is scheduled to meet with media after the round."

I think he’ll have a good round, something to prove and he wouldn’t say how good he was feeling if he wasn’t, he’d be cautious.

per him he is having to change his swing often to compensate for his back condition week to week. That's got to be a tough way to play..or not play... that's like me after every range session...new swing

the way I heard him it was that, Matt Killen started looking at his swing after the masters to help "improve" it and take more pressure off the spine for longevity and in that process the new moves were using new muscles and causing soreness and stiffness. I mean, you would of thought he would of learned how well 2018 went to just keep doing it on his own but that's my opinion. Tiger is always trying to improve so I didn't think he would stick alone for long
