Will he be picked just to appease the networks for ratings and television revenue?

Just a thought of how much this is taken into account on "Watson's" decision. Will the almighty $$ take over?

Hoping/believing Tom has more backbone than to bow to pressure from TV.

i hope he doesn't get picked so he can spend the entire offseason fully recovering and practicing for the push for 19


hopefully sometime in that stretch he finds a new swing coach

Tom Watson had to beat around the bush a little bit after the PGA Championship. He shouldn't and probably won't pick Tiger.

After watching Tom Watson's press conference yesterday, there is no question in my mind, he will be picked.

I think Tiger will flip the situation and come out and say he isn't well enough to play. He will take the heat off watson

Tiger does not deserve to be on the team.

I think he should be picked bc he's Tiger fricking Woods... On any given day he can still be the old Tiger... We're already missing Dustin Johnson

but it aint up to me

Tiger was under par in his last 9 holes of a major championship. He is good to go.

No, pick players who have earned it and are healthy enough to play.

Tom can "pick" him and then Tiger can say I don't want to be a detriment to my team with my current health, but I will gladly assist the team as a volunteer assistant captain (like Sergio did).

Networks get tiger on tv, everyone wins.
