Honestly when it comes to Tiger in these threads it's mostly people hating on Tiger fans and saying his fans are delusional and stupid, and that he is done winning forever. It's not so much anyone else posting about him besides just what he does on the course

He's 9 shots out of the lead and in a T31. That's probably 4 more times than is deserved.


Tell that to the "Phil will be in contention this weekend" guys

Most polarizing golfer in the world and every shot is shown on TV, yea he shouldn't even be mentioned

Rickie needs to quit clownin' around out there.

He and his caddy are pretty laid back. Maybe too laid back. Makes ya wonder if somebody else on his bag would help his game. Butch should be able to find somebody.

I'm starting to come around on Rickie, I used to really dislike him bc he looks like a douche, but he seems like a pretty nice humble guy

I was at the Zurich on Thursday. Rickie was pretty much the marquee guy that the tournament organizers were pumping up. On Thursday, every other golfer was working on their chipping and putting for about 20 minutes while Rickie was playing on his phone for 15 minutes, and putting for 5 minutes. He played terrible on Thursday and missed the cut.

He's really easy going. He's not a prick, or a nerd, even though he looks like both.

I think it's a gimmick to get paid. And it's working while he's not winning much.

You can tell he's kinda toning down his "gimmick". He's matured as a player. I think he becomes a yearly winner on tournament.

Yea it's kind of unbelievable how popular and recognize able he is compared to how successful he has been.

I mean he's got a whole generation of kids wearing Puma gear, bright colors, and crazy belts to emulate him and he's won what twice in his career? And no majors

I walked 18 with him the day before when he did the pro-am...talked to his caddy for about 9 holes, and then he started talking to me. You could tell he was focused at first, and then he started eating grillades and shite, laughing and doing trick shots for the golf channel nerds. It was cool, but weird. Almost like he was just there for his sponsor.

I've always like Rickie, except the hat. But I'm sure he's making bank on it though from Puma. I really became a fan back in his first Ryder cup I believe and he came back at the end either to tie or win when he was way down early.

This is starting to have a 2011 US Open / 2012 PGA feel to it.
