He's got his speed back alright.......he drove out of that car park in his Porsche like Lewis Hamilton! I'm afraid that's what happens when you try to rip it like the young boys with the body of a sixty year old! :confused:

Lol! NO way - I'm no hippy.....but I'm very happy! And I know a bit about perspective when life seems to lose it's purpose. I know that the combination of a serious slump AND a lack of emotional self actualisation WILL impact on any chance Tiger has to bounce back from this and win again...

Tiger has the full blown YIPS! More practice?? He has been chipping since he was four years old, the first thing he started doing after his back op was chipping!! He is in trouble - big time! Any readers of Hank Haney's book will know that he always beleived Tiger had the driving yips - good...

The principles of good swing plane haven't changed since Old Tom and Hogan! All the launch monitors in the world can't change that. I've never defended the name The Slot - it's a US term and it sounds sh##t - however, I can't watch a PGA Pro give such a dismissive answer to such an important...

Very interesting responses - thanks! My gripe with Mark was the fact that he dismissed 'the slot' and missed an opportunty to talk about (optimal) shaft plane and give a positive input toward a 'pro like' swing through shaft/hand plane. He dismissed 'the slot' (as a concept) completely -...

The Slot! I have had a very interesting few days 'discussing' this concept with Mark Crossfield on Youtube, sadly we disagree significantly!! :(:o https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OQwtTdAcKsU&list=UUBMx__Jflm6xQwP6LdhHS7A Please have a watch and feel free to discuss. I would love to hear...

This is absolutely correct! Poults has not thought very clearly before pressing send here!! 'How the other half live?' - clearly it doesn't involve any 'hands on' hard work with kids! The true irony is that, I'm sure that looking after kids in business class is ten times easier than, when...

Of course he's lost interest............when you are used to dominating a sport and always being in contention, hacking at the bottom of the field, just to miss the cut by 4 is NOT fun!

Anyone who is asking this question MUST read The Big Miss by Hank Hainey............it sums it all up and explains alot about his pull hook left and WHY it appears/happens - it's basically the driving yips!! :) and the problem with losing his height is the key to avoiding it.

Correct! He walked down the steps like a man 'protecting' an injury. He'll not finish the round. His back is a REAL concern for ANY future in golf, let alone contending in Majors. He has packed 30 years of hard, hard training (especially excessive squats and dead-lifts, with ludicrous -...

He is not going to make the cut (score wise) and it's likely that he will pull out injured before 36 holes. He keeps making Tom Watson's job hard.........as long as Tiger 'pretends' he is fit Watson will fell compelled to pick him, but he will be a dead weight to the US team.

Absolutely! It's amazing what you can do with a soft belly AND soft hands!:)

Forget 'fit' or 'flab' and worry about FLEXIBLE! That is the key ingredient. Strength helps in the right places (legs and core!), but flexibility to get into the right positions is far more important. Go stretch and hit it like Bubba!
