  1. I cannot see Tiger ever getting back to his old ways of being dominant in
    the PGA. He was a very bright flame that burned
    out too early IMO.

  2. The problem is simply that he returned after back surgery too soon. He had
    a microdiscectomy for a ‘herniated disc’ in March. Returned to golf in
    July. Waaaay to soon. Despite the fact that microdiscectomys are minimally
    invasive and pretty simple and you leave the hospital same day and have no
    pain after surgery in a fairly short time, you ‘still’ have to let those
    things heal for a at least a year and develop enough scar tissue before
    going back and trying to do something like golf which constantly twists the
    back disc around repeatedly. Most likely, he’s probably re-herniated it.
    Herniated discs are slow to heal. The ‘only’ reason he wasn’t feeling pain
    after the surgery is because the disc had been decompressed away from the
    nerve due to the surgery. But that does not mean the disc is completely
    healed. This is a mistake so many people make after having back surgery.
    They think, “Oh, great, no more pain so soon?, ok back to doing the same ol
    strenuous activities I was doing before”…not!

  3. Anyone who says that this is fake obviously doesn’t play golf enough to
    know how much it puts on your back and hips, especially when you play as
    much as these pro’s. Any other pro gets hurt your feel sympathy, but of
    course when it’s Tiger you have to be an ass about it.

  4. The man in not a machine… He’s human. Everyone forgets that… Swing the
    club like he does and how many times he does… You wouldn’t last a week.
    Yet alone most of your lifetime.

  5. Everyone who is saying that tiger is a wimp is incredibly stupid. Of all
    the golfers on tour you call him a wimp? Some would have withdrawn after he
    fell to the ground like that. He’s the best player this sport has seen,
    he’s had a long career so give him a break.

  7. Notice from the video that Woods completes his back swing to a proper
    finish, but when the ball is clearly so far off line, he collapses. “I won
    the U.S. Open with a broken leg,” he is reported to have said. The only
    thing broken about this douche is ego.

  8. This was just sad to watch. So sad to see such a good golfer go now like
    that. Honest opinion would have won it without that injury. Hope he can
    pull through to win the fed ex 

  9. The whole using television as the sole educator of their children because
    at the end of the day they still have no knowledge on how to raise their
    children without the bible comes into effect as well.
