Tigers back....

[Val]

I'm only comparing them in terms of how folk support/don't support their sporting ambitions/efforts

i.e I don’t get how you say his game is all but over but also say at his age he should still be at the top, should he not even try to come back from injury?

He is one of the sports greats
He is attempting a comeback from not insignificant back injuries
Any other player attempting it would get almost unanimous support
He won’t

I’d kinda like him to succeed because I enjoyed watching him play so why not hope to see it again some years on?

I've no axe to grind with him. I don't even know him. I’m just a golf nut that would like to see it in the same way I like to see Langer make the cut or old man Watson run the youngsters close

I just don’t see a downside in Tiger trying to test himself once more but because he might fail doesn’t mean he shouldn’t try

Of course he should try, he's a fierce competitor and always thinks big BUT I just can't see him winning another major. He's had more returns and breakdowns than most golfers out there.

Is that me being negative or realistic?

We'll see. Maybe he'll surprise us?

He's a spent force, his game is all but over



Just cos I know he reads the forum I'm thinking he'll read the above and not quite get a sense of support

I agree though he does come over as a win or bust type of guy so it could all go horribly wrong for him (& lots of us like a bit of car crash tv too)

Either way I'll be watching with interest

Im sure we all will, whether he's there or not

I genuinely think if he could accept he can't hit is as far as the youngsters he could compete. But hearing his interview and how he's talking about still having lots more power in the tank worries me. Think he'll come back. Smash it too hard. Hurt himself and its Groundhog Day.
