For a long time, I thought the people who made PED allegations against Tiger were just spiteful haters but now I'm not sure. How does one's body break down like this especially playing a sport like golf? It reminds me of all the juicers in baseball whose bodies turned to dust.

So why does he suck now?


In addition to the injuries, I think it's also because of too many different swings and swing coaches/gurus over the years.

Tiger should beg Butch Harmon to take him back.

leaving fathers out of the conversation, how does Tiger's ego differ from MJ's.

This is why Tiger Sucks now. And the mental side has now collapsed. Tiger should have left his swing alone when he was winning all those tournaments. But it's likely he changed it because of the back and knee issues. If he changed it because it was perceived to be flawed, then they were wrong....dead wrong.

Having a tremendous ego is not exclusive to being an athlete. And whether you believe golfers are not athletes or not, MJ is just as big of a POS as Tiger. Its been well documented.

At this point the guy just can't stay healthy. He apparently has the back of a 70 year old.


I personally believe he just doesnt care that much about winning/playing like he once did. He does all that military shite. Thats how he hurt his knee too, supposedly doing navy SEAL training things....so I dont think he's putting golf first these days. I dont watch near as much golf. The field is so bland with so little personality overall to each player. Yes there are guys with personality on the tour, but Tiger not only was a unique never seen before personality, but he brought the a-hole out of lots of guys, which made it fun. I also always got the feeling most of the guys on the tour were silver spoon pricks that just played the game and enjoyed the money, and Tiger's game smoked them across the face so hard they had no idea what hit them. There will never be a Tiger in golf iMO. Just never the combination of skill, competitiveness, and fire that he had. IDGAF what any of you say. NEVER

Actually he changed his swing once, and it worked really well for him, but it was the second swing change that has stopped him up.

Do you have any direct quotes? I dont ever remember hearing that, and besides, he turned out to be the most dominant golfer we've ever seen...so they werent far off in golf terms. How is that any different from LeBron James calling himself "the chosen one". Tiger has won golf's most prestigious tournaments multiple times and is 2nd all-time in major wins, and he's second all-time on the tour wins list in 12 less years of playing time than Sam Snead who has only 3 more wins. Think about it.

The world will be a better place to live in...by virtue of his existence...and his presence.... I acknowledge only a small part in that...in that I know that I was personally selected by God himself...to nurture this young man...and bring him to the point where he can make his contribution to humanity....

Yes, because he has a larger forum than any of them. Because he's playing a sport that's international. Because he's qualified through his ethnicity to accomplish miracles. He's the bridge between the East and the West. There is no limit because he has the guidance. I don't know yet exactly what form this will take. But he is the Chosen One. He'll have the power to impact nations. Not people. Nations. The world is just getting a taste of his power."

I tried looking up the old SI story from 1996, but at least came up with these 10 quotes from it. I read the story back then and realized Tiger, his mom and dad are delusional and pompous assholes.
