i dont think he was ever cut (under 10% bodyfat)

in 2002 or 2004 i'm not sure, he had more mass, at least 200 pounds if he is 185 now

 

I saw him in person at the Presidents Cup years ago and his upper body was better developed than today, maybe he had toothpick legs though so thats why he always said he weighed 185

 

There was an cover story about him in some fitness magazine several years ago, showing him with his shirt off. He looked like he was in decent shape, but for somebody who claims to work out several hours a day, let alone the claims of steroid use, he sure didn't have much to show for it. I was bigger and more cut when I was 16, just from high school wrestling.

 

Are you thinking about the Vanity Fair article? Clearly the build of a linebacker...

 

 

As I recall, that was on the newsstands when "The Scandal" broke.

 

he looks small on this pic, probably didn't train much before that shoot.

 

in 2002-2005 he looked way bigger than that

Very nice round from Woods, it was shame the coverage hadn't started yet. Hopefully he can back it up tomorrow.

You sure about that? Possibly larger tee shirts are fooling you here as everybody wore big clothes back then

His biggest transformation was between 98 and 2000 where he put on 20 pounds . Been around 180-185 ever since

[cinnepa]

"The Needle" - whoever gave him that nickname here totally nailed it.

People can choose clothes which make them look much bigger..in particular your cut of shirt can make your traps look much larger. As stated before in this thread Tiger has never been much bigger than your average gym goer who is good to decent shape.

Love how "The Needle" can make grown men talk about a golfers muscular stature. Wonder if Craig Stadler won 14 majors we'd be comparing his body to a Nose Tackle?

[UCBananaboy]

Didn't Tiger agree to do the VF article as a result of getting caught by one of its writers with a girl in a parking lot?

[Sapper211]

Nice to see some Luke Donald love. Too bad his putter kind of went to sleep. Speaking of Love, it was good to see DLIII is still spanking it.

[BreakingPar]

So Luke Donald hit his drive 252, and ends up closer to the pin than either Adam Scott or Billy Horschell?

Very instructive watching this featured group

Luke volunteered to have his ball dialed back.

Davis can still really play out there. He had it going yesterday for sure. 30 years into a great Career...very impressive really. Would love to see him notch one more Win and right the Ryder Cup for him and his American peers.

DL3 making a move this morning.

Seriously. He's hit his share of 250 and 270 yards drives today. These guys are a good 40 to 50 past him, especially Adam Scott

Not good. Too much Wine maybe?

Brandt Snedeker with a smooth 61 this morning...

[Frankensteins Monster]

Five minutes to Needle. I hope he can stack on top of yesterday.

It was fun while it lasted.

[Emthree]

Hour and a half until it comes on TV over here, hope he's still in the tournament by then.

[Frankensteins Monster]

Birdie for Tigger.
