Tiger shoots 42 at the Players - withdraws

Post by Joe Shlabotnik »

Tiger Woods shot a score I might be able to beat for 9 holes. Too early to call this his mid-life crisis?

I was just about to post this. It seems it's an injury more so than a mental/swing thing. The reason listed was knee injury which likely means his knee that he had an ACL replacement done on. And, rumor has it, that injury/knee has kept him from being able to practice.

I feel bad for the guy. Having had this done myself, it's frustrating as [expletive] having to wait to test it and endure the after effects for years to come. I was never a tiger fan, per se, but now I'm rooting like hell for him. I hate seeing injuries ruin careers.

On a brighter note, my doctors/physical therapists were the [expletive]. I had close to the same surgery about the same time as Woods did and my knee is 100% as good as it was at a minimum. I don't hesitate to cut on it playing any sport and unless somebody brings it up, I really don't ever think about it. Boo-ya to those professionals that were involved. Miracle workers!

Doesn't he have access to stem cells or HGH to fix this [expletive]? Golf on TV sucks without Tiger playing well.

I thought Tiger was fooling around specifically to generate his own stem-cell line.

He hasn't won much since the knee surgery, which happened to coincide with that.

This right here.

He does have three 4th's a top 25 and a 28th in his last 5 majors and took the lead on Sunday at the Masters after starting the day 7 back.

He's in his mid 30's and has had knee issues, an end to his "domination" should be expected, but he's still one of the few guys on the tour that you expect to contend for the win every tournament.

True, it is a low sperm count.
