Fair call, I think that as he was always one step behind Rory who had often wrapped the birdie up first it hid some of the play he had done. Still saw plenty and hopefully this stellar period for Rose continues.
Rory doesn’t care? Tiger finished?

Ask guys in their late 20’s mid 30’s why they got into Golf? A lot will say because of Tiger and as me and others stated it was a comp in the US giving a US feed.
If we only discuss what benefits us on here you might as well pack in

All joking aside, I really do think that Woods needs to reign it in a bit or he is risking further injuries. Multiple back and knee operations already yet he still swings it absolutely flat out. No need to do that, just hit more club!
People have been saying that for years. Not just the likes of us on a forum or down the local golf club. Ex pro's on tv, pundits etc. It would be a shame if he damaged himself further when he could reign in as you suggest. He is good enough to take that extra club, blimey he is Tiger Woods and can do most bits of golf better than the rest.

You can't hit more club than your driver though. If anything he's already reigned his irons in.

Er...What club is 'more club' than Driver?
Reign back the driver a bit and then take more club...
It would be a crying shame to see him work his butt off to get back to the sort of form that does win Majors only for his back or something else to give out as he's trying to hit it into next week...

Modern golf has Tiger to thank for where it is today. He is the star name.
I was never a huge fan but respect him and I'm in awe of his achievements, but I have the "sitting down to watch golf buzz" back because Tiger is back and I want to see how he is doing and how he compares to the Tiger of old.
I don't think he's that far away, his holing out is still amongst the best on tour. Majors? Very possibly. Time will tell but I will not write him off.

There's always one
As Ian quite rightly says, hit the driver a controlled 300 instead of an uncontrolled 320 then hit 1 more club into the green. It's not rocket science.

The only annoyance I do have is not with the TV coverage, but the crowds a little to keen to cheer a Tiger shot. A few hit the green but long putts and they were still getting an almighty reception.

Think he has always just loved smashing the driver - don’t think he’ll ever lose that instinct. Just like Phil always wanting to play the big flop on short shots. Both probably think shall I play the safe shot? Sod I’ll go with my gut instinct

Agree with this.
I will always cheer against him because he was always winning. No doubt he draws the crowds but following him around the course is a nightmare with the masses of people (Seen him at 5 Opens) but the upside is that the others groups can be viewed pretty easily

Tigers the best player To have ever played the game, just enjoy watching him whilst you still can, personally reckon he’s got at least one major left in him

In the last 25 years. Yes!
Of all time? Impossible to say.
Players can only, at most, be the best of their generation.
Morris, Vardon, Hagen, Jones, Nelson, Hogan, Nicklaus, Woods.
None of us can possibly say who is the greatest ever.

Absolutely......Sky don't have much say in the coverage, apart from odd bits here and there and interviews, so whilst I am not a massive Sky fan I think we need to accept that in the US Tiger is a real draw and this sort of coverage will continue whilst he is competitive.
This has been said time and time again on numerous threads before and of course the hysteria was going to into a frenzy not only with Woods back, but with him playing rather well. Yes Sky have jumped on the bandwagon and led their coverage with what Woods had done etc but any broadcaster including the BBC would do the same as he's the big story. I expect both to do the same with their Masters coverage
