Anyone think that Tiger is washed up

Mike · June 17th, 2004, 09:07 PM

He has not been playing up to par over the past few months, if not to a year. I mean WTF, he seems human and maybe he is getting to much into his new wife's life; shopping and shit

He's still making more money then me...

He makes more money than I'll ever see.

He's not washed up, but I don't know if he's still #1 in the world. He's still the best there is, but that alone can't make him #1.

If he wins the US Open, he's still #1. If not, then it's time for someone else to be on top until Tiger reclaims the spot.

TIger just needs to spend some money, relax and come vack anew.

jtg33 · June 19th, 2004, 04:53 AM

No kidding. He should take some time off, just unwind, then come back and tear up the links again. It's not like he doesn't have enough money already, he should go out and spend some.

Tiger makes more money off endorsements in one year then most make in a life time...so money isnt much of a concern.. I do suspect that his back is toast.. Swinging so hard for so long cant be good for anyone.. He has been playing hard for 10+ years and I think its taken its toll.. but he still is one of the top players in the world.. He hasnt been number one for a few years in my opinion..but the TV coverage he gets makes him look like the top guy.. It is kind of pathetic the coverage he gets when he is 5-10 strokes behind in the final day compared to the others on the leaderboard.. Who cares if he cans a 25 foot put for birdie when he bogied the last 4 holes.. Even I can do that..lol.. and Mickelson.. he finally won a tourney.. now we can finally stop hearing about the best to not win.. another stat under the " who gives a shit" column..

One thing for sure..is the course is eating these guys up for a change.. nice to see single digits on the scorecard .. Tournies where a guy wins with 22 under par followed by 8 guys at 21 are rediculous, these guys are pros..make it stupid hard for them.. lets see who comes out on top..

and Nicklaus was the best there was/is/will be.. no super sized drivers.. woods were made of wood.. sweet spots the size of a pin head.. no super spin extra distance golf balls...and just a classy guy..

LOL..I hear ya

So Goosen won the Open.. Mickelson fell apart as he loves to do.
I totally disagree with the wetting down of the 7th green for each group to help make the ball stick.. and after 6 groups had already played it dry..what a bunch of babies..and if it was a mistake on pin placement..then where were the Open board of Directors supervising..Even though the first 6 groups didnt make any run for the lead.. a few got 7's and 8's on it..and when you are talking about the money difference a stroke or two makes it would piss me off that they started wetting them down for the "better" players.

Tiger is either the greatest golfer of all time or he is a failure. Right now he's not the greatest golfer of all time.
