Tiger seems lost with no way out
in [Golf]

From: Par on 8 Aug 2010 12:44 (AP) - The revelations that once seemed to come daily have now largely stopped. No more mistresses have stepped forward, and no more apologies are necessary. Nine months after the secret world of Tiger Woods was laid bare, even the tabloids and celebrity websites seem to have lost interest. The only real questions left are how much his wife will get in a divorce and when she will get it. Indeed, these should almost be good times for Woods. The worst of his humiliations are just a memory, the trips to rehab are apparently over, and even the British tabloids couldn't beat him down at St. Andrews. Plus he's got millions of people who still think he's the greatest thing to ever grace a 2-iron. All good, except for one thing. The greatest player of our time doesn't seem to have a clue on the golf course anymore... Continued: http://sn.im/TigerLost

If he said that and if it's true, it could be he's falling into a depression he isn't handling well. ISTM by now, based on recent performance, he'd be looking for a mentor again if he's not fighting some demons. -- Don Kirkman donsno2(a)charter.net

Thanks for the clarification. His interview today after his round didn't clarify much. :-) -- Don Kirkman donsno2(a)charter.net |
