Tiger Woods - "I hit if awful, so what?"

On the first hole his tee shot nearly wound up in a creek left of the fairway, on the fifth his tee shot landed among trees on the left.
But at no time did Woods revert back to his old swing.
"I was just trying to stay committed to what we're working on, to what we're doing," he said. "I hit it awful, yeah. So what? I was going to go through this phase and stick with it, keep sticking with it. And some of the shots I hit were really, really good, but then I also had some really bad shots, too. And we need to work on that, too and omit the bad ones.
"I've gone through phases like this, rounds like this before in the past where, yeah, it's easy to revert back and go ahead and hit some old pattern, but it doesn't do you any good going forward. … Just got to suck it up. If you believe in it, do it. And eventually it will start turning, and when it turns, I've had periods where I've played good for four or five years, where I've won close to 20 tournaments in that stretch."
Is Tiger done?
Oh, and so what? So let's dance!

So, the long list of angry MSB haters will be happy.

Hey guys. What's going on here?

Tiger should have one of those slow motion swing commercials again, and with a simple caption "NO frickS GIVEN" instead of Just Do It.

Tiger is getting back to basics.

It looks like Tiger is thinking every single one of those swing thoughts when he's hitting driver.

"I hit it awful, yeah. So what? I still have the broke finger that I'm still working through"
"And some of the shots I hit were really, really good, but then I also had some really bad shots, too when my finger popped out on me again. And we need to work on that, too"

The biggest takeaway from this is that he's actually committed to the changes. One of his biggest problems when changing is he doesn't commit, goes back to old things, and gets crossed up. Doesn't work very well when the changes are drastic

I remember watching some video of Tiger from around 2000 where he's talking to a bunch of kids. He said the key to golf is to find what works for you and stick with it as far as your swing goes....no matter how unconventional it may seem. If you start overthinking things and changing things every so often, you won't have any confidence in what you're doing.
Right now, he's doing exactly the opposite. He's just so messed up mentally. Just hit the f'n ball Tiger.

You shouldn't have called him out

I wish he didn't have all these exemptions and we had to see him go to Q school.

There is no q school for the big show. Only the web.com tour
