re: T.Woods goes down in pain at The Barclays

I've never - not once - seen it happen to a player on the PGA Tour, and I've been watching golf for 20 years. Are you telling me Tiger's the only pro golfer in 20 years to tweak his back on TV?
Secondly, how many people have had bad back trouble during a tournament? I'm guessing the list is pretty small.
And if people have back trouble, they do things to try to lessen the pain before they play. Or they might drop out.
I mean, how many golfers do you see play injured anyway? That hardly ever happens. And then for that injury to be their back? And then on top of that for them to also tweak it during the actual tournament?

Couples for one ... I have never seen him hit the deck before
and I will bet big money that he has/had worse back issues than Tiger
ETA: Ken Duke who won this year on tour DEFINITELY has more back trouble than Tiger but I am not seeing him flopping around like crazy on the course

You named the exception.

They don't talk about it. They don't fall to the ground after swings. So it's kinda hard to tell which ones are hurt. Except, of course, for Tiger - the only golfer who ever plays hurt IYO.

Stand outside the trailers that follow the Tour. One's a fitness trailer and the other's a physical therapy trailer. I guarantee you the majority of the ones coming out of the fitness trailer are experiencing some form of back problem.

Answer: You don't. You are making shite up.

Like someone already said in this thread, no one knows how bad his back is anyway.
He played 5 rounds of a major with a torn ACL and multiple leg fractures. How many of you badasses would have done that?
ETA: For people that don't like Tiger he's damned if he says he hurt because you'll just say hes making excuses or damned if he doesn't and grimaces while on the course because you think hes faking it.

Care to name any who have played hurt recently?

Regardless, but, if you haven't caught on to Tiger's BS by now then I don't know what to tell you
