Is tiger finished?

MendieGK said:
What a stupid comment!!! he was level par standing on the 11th tee, pulled a horrendous lie in the rough and made a double. He then was middle of the green on the 12th when he retired.

Hardly going to be his worst round ever is it

If he was playing well he would have battled through......holed 3 good par saves and was hardly in the fairway all day,hardly a decent swing all day.

He's done.....never the best tee to green but short game saved him.. Not now!!

I think we can safely say that he didn't pull out because of how he was playing otherwise he wouldn't have finished last week

I agree....but this is the guy who won a major playing with a broken leg.

If he was playing well he would have finished the round...and then taken advice regarding his back

Garbage. He couldn't bend down to pick the ball out of the hole. He would have been stupid to go on.

Nobody said he was playing well, but he wasn't heading for his worst ever round like someone else said, he was no worse than 2 over and level par before his back totally gave in. Facts have a habit of getting in the ay if bias I find
 
He's finished, unless he can mentally get over his bodies inability to keep up with the young guns.
Just a shame the game of golf won't exist for the TV companies once he's gone.
 
Just catching up on a recorded event that took place today and I'm wondering if the injured back of Tiger who managed to put himself into the driving seat, drove himself to Beaver Creek last night???

You think he went over the moguls with Ms Vonn?

Yes, telling us all, his head has gone as well as his glutes. His putting is not as good, his pitching has gone, his chipping around the greens has gone. Even last week, his back was fine and he couldn't chip to save his life. His head is minced, totally.

Don't you just love a bit of Scottish diplomacy? :rofl:
 
I sincerely hope he isn't finished as a golfer. I would like to see still competing against the new younger players especially the ones who have broken through in the last few years that haven't had the chance to play against him regularly.

The current evidence shows he still has a way to go to make a full comeback with both his body and actual game. Only time will time. I for one wont take any satisfaction if he plays no more competitive golf. That would be a huge shame and in my opinion a loss for the game.
 
I think the thing that this shows most dramatically and I hope Tiger can see it is that he swings differently in practice than he does playing a tournament.

He obviously (and even Mark Roe can see it its that obvious) swings to hard playing competitively, he is 40 more or less he needs to forget about out hitting everyone. Golf is not the same as it was and he changed it, he is playing against athletes in their prime now he is a 40 year old with a broken body he needs to see that.

I want Tiger back to his best but every interview you see with him all he talks about is explosiveness and club head speed unless he changes his mind set he is finished.
 
Nope, he will always have a huge media presence around him, he will find a way to make a boatload of money somehow, for golf there is always the seniors tour.
