Mike Tirico just announced that Tiger will not play in the Masters.

I'd much prefer to see a spieth/rory/DJ/etc battle down the stretch compared to Tiger winning by 8 strokes


Stenson/Mickelson in the Open last year was the most entertaining round of golf I've probably ever watched. Just one good shot after another. No chokes or meltdowns. Just outstanding golf. Woods/May at the 2000 PGA and Woods/Mediate in the 08 US Open are up there as well.

Tiger really should retire. It's painful to watch, and I don't imagine it's much fun for him.

I think he will make one more attempt to return to competitive golf. If that doesn't pan out because of back problems, then yes, I would expect him to hang it up.

Same here, he talks of his kids all the time and spending time with them, which of course is great but that also makes me think that Tiger knows it's over and he's doing this for sponsors.

As a guy a pair of Patron badges, I enjoy it more as a spectator when he is not playing. He just brings in a bunch of obnoxious blowhards to the event who wouldn't be there otherwise. It's not him as much as the throng of douchebags he brings along with him.

Agreed. Last year, seeing Stenson win, was the greatest Open finish of my life.

My brother. They briefly pulled from the waiting list in 06 and shut it back down. He got on the waiting list when they briefly added to that in 01. He got a letter in 06 informing him that he had been randomly pulled off the waiting list in 06.

He is not a golf fan. In fact, his FIL was the one who told him to apply for the waiting list in 01. He started out giving me Sunday only the first 4 years and he gave his FIL 2 days while he went to one. His MIL died and the FIL quit going. Now he gives me Friday-Sunday and I just buy all 4 days for him to get the 3. I take clients on half day trips. I will take 3 per day. I go in with one for half a day and we exit around 1:00 to hand them off. I always take first timers to maximize my return.

I am worried though because he is 50 and way overweight. I wish him good health because I care for him.

Prior to my brother getting lucky in 06, I was fortunate to work for a company where I got one day a year to take a customer going back to 99. Volvo gave us those tickets.

I have tried to get practice round tickets for the last 5 years though and haven't been successful.
