PGA Website seems to be the best part of 2 holes behind the Sky Sports Blog!

I assume Tiger's lashing at it again - don't understand why Foley (or any other coach) can't get him to swing rather than hit it at 100%!!!

In the water at the 2nd! It really is mystifying how a golfer of Tiger's undoubted ability can be so wild off the tee....

Because he is very rusty no doubt swinging to protect his back etc

Madness that he is playing

Oh dear. Just got in (wife had op and been out all day) and seen the score. I assume all isn't as good as he said. He needs a break to get fit and assess the best way of playing to give himself some longevity

From the moment he walked to the first tee he didn't look like he was walking with his normal stride.

Quite simply, he shouldn't have played and I don't know whether to admire him for his desire to compete or 'dis' him for his stupidity for not taking the proper time out required.

Its probably the latter now but I hope he comes back all guns blazing next season.

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 - olympic lifter'esque - weights into a space of 15 competitive golf years, and now he is reaping what he has sown! :(

How can Tiger be this bad.
His driver is so wayward its untrue.
And Michelson on the first,just so offline

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.

I reckon he needs one of these things at the end of his putter to help him pick the ball out of the hole :D
