I've got a prescription for this thread.

I'm not saying he wasn't in pain. What I am saying is I think he over played it just a bit.

I wasn't referring to you. Sorry about that.

If he was exaggerating, it wasn't much. There was something wrong with him. Big time. Never seen him act that way before. Especially with a chance to win the tournament.

If there was something that seriously wrong with him he wouldn't be throwing a dart like he did on 17. He's a huge drama queen.

I am not a fan of tiger, but he was in pain, and played like a champ when everyone else was stinking the place up.

So why did he not even watch his second shot that he flushed on the 72nd hole down by 1? Did it on purpose for the extra drama??

When's the last time you saw a Tour player drop to his knees writhing in pain after hitting a shot?

Looks like his mistresses aren't the only ones falling on their knees.

Never seen it. When was the last time you saw a player not watch his second shot on the 72nd hole with a chance to win? Come to think of it, I don't know if I have ever seen a pro pick the ball out of the hole like tiger did.

Just b/c you have a spasm that brings you down doesn't mean you are done for the day. I've dropped to my knee with one and been fine less than a minute later. I've also had some where I had to lay on the floor until somebody could bring me some pain meds. Anything from picking up the remote at home to picking up heavy equipment at work has set it off for me. It's different every time.

We can speculate from now till the end of time. But you can take one thing to the bank. You're not going to hear the rest of the story from TW.

I'm not denying he wasn't playing in pain. But as someone poste earlier in a story that was linked, TW often tends to overplay it.

To me, the story "accused" tiger of liking injuries. Not overplaying them. But don't know for sure.

Anyway, time for bed. 13 month old will be up in a few hours.

I vaguely remember those days and almost choking changing diapers.

Boy or girl?

Girl and 2 yr old boy. At least one of them ends up in our bed around 4.

When was the last time you saw a professional golfer walk up to his ball and whack it out of the heavy rough in disgust without even addressing it? Because I saw Tiger do that at the PGA. I also rarely hear other golfers yelling at themself or making exasperated movements and facial expressions every time a shot doesnt go in the hole. Tiger does that though. He's a drama queen.
