Tiger Just Does Not Have it Anymore

[InTheDrink]

What a stupid fukkin thread.

Tiger put on an unreal show in his individual match at the Ryder Cup and if McDowell misses a 20 foot putt on the 72nd hole of the Chevron to force a playoff you guys would all be on his sack. He's a lock to win a major this year. A lock.

Blow this shit up.

[Finalnub]

He's done. His legacy's gone just like the other members of the Gilette triplet

[DrunkHorseplayer]

The worst part is that bettors have finally figured this out and fading him is getting more and more expensive.

[blueghost]

not sure if hes done but like anything else you cant win if your not putting your full effort out ..he still has all the tools to win just getting his mind straight doesnt seem to be there yet

[jjgold]

Golf Comm has to be fukkin dying

They need him to win for tour to survive

[Ace_of_Spades]

Tiger will get better soon enough.

Lock?
20 points says he doesn't win a major this year.
I'll se you later this summer.

He has one of worst swings on tour right now as far as driving

He cannot hit the ball straight

[WeinketoWarrick]

On one side we've got mostly non-golfing retards. On the other we've got intelligent people.

Tiger will never be as dominant as we once was, but he's not finished you fools.

[unusialsusp5]

his interracial marriage turned off a lot of people. he was ruined by his father so some of the blame goes there. throwing clubs and swearing shows lack of self control. cheating on his wife substantiates that. he is an arrogant angry hostile and abusive person. if you could get away with it i would go heckle him at every tournament just to see him fly into his rage.

I dont think he gets as angry as he used to, well since he stopped using the roids that is

[jjgold]

Good Point Brewer

He seems to not care anymore, roids played a big part in his success

[Bulldog-53]

Golf pros rarely if ever hit the ball straight.

Trust me on this, he's done.
Tiger's putting is all over the green, driving is nowhere what it used to be, he's mentally not on the course, he's not feared anymore, has no more intimidation factor.

He finished 44th in a tourney, on a course 5 years ago eats up and finishes in the top 5.

For those who think Tiger will revert to 2005 Tiger, or even close to it, wake up, you're living in the past man, he's done, do you expect Manny to hit 40 homers and drive in 130 this or next season? Same parrellel.

[pavyracer]

It doesn't matter if you hit the ball straight when you are not aiming at the target correctly.

Plans for a Tiger Woods signature golf estate, including a boutique hotel and sheik-style palaces, have been shelved as Dubai's financial downturn claimed another major project launched during the eye-popping boom years.

Woods

A statement Monday by the golf course developer -- part of a conglomerate controlled by Dubai's debt-squeezed ruler -- said "market conditions" were behind the decision to suspend work on The Tiger Woods Dubai on the city's desert outskirts.
The announcement -- just before Woods is scheduled to play in the Dubai Desert Classic next week -- shows that Dubai's property market is still wobbling from the severe credit crunch that hit last year and stalled many headline-grabbing projects, including an even larger version of the manmade palm-shaped island that helped put Dubai on the map.
Sources told GolfDigest.com the course is no longer watered and that after Woods plays in Dubai, the project will "return to sand."
But the golf course developer, part of Dubai Properties Group, left open the possibly that work could someday resume.
"These conditions will continue to be monitored," said a statement to The Associated Press after questions about the status of the long-delayed golf complex. "A decision will be made in the future when to restart the project."
Only a few holes have been completed on the $1 billion course, planned as the centerpiece for a complex of 100 villas, 75 mansions, 22 palaces, a boutique hotel, a golf academy and 30,000 full-grown imported trees.
The first phase of the development had been promised by the end of 2009 -- about the same time Dubai stunned world markets by announcing staggering debt for many of its state-linked companies.
The course is part of a far-larger leisure and living master plan known as Dubailand, which also has largely come to a standstill by Dubai's fiscal crunch. Officials had planned to open multiple theme parks including Universal Studios, Legoland and Six Flags -- none of which has been built.
Dubai Properties Group is part of a conglomerate known as Dubai Holding, which is controlled by the city-state's ruler, Sheik Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum. Like a number of government-linked Dubai companies, the conglomerate is deeply in debt and has been locked in talks with creditors to renegotiate the terms of its liabilities.
Dubai property prices plunged by roughly half from their peak in mid-2008 in less than a year. They have yet to recover.
Woods was among the sports personalities who frequented Dubai during its free-spending boom years. He won the Desert Classic in 2006 and 2008 and never finished lower than fifth since he started playing in the emirate in 2001.
He missed the 2009 tournament due to a knee injury and was absent last year amid the turmoil surrounding his extramarital affairs.
Dubai officials, however, have sought to maintain close ties with Woods even as sponsors dropped away. The course developer said it and Woods "will retain our commercial agreement together." Terms of that deal have not been disclosed.
An 18-hole course designed by Colin Montgomerie was launched in Dubai in 2006, and another by Ernie Els opened in 2008.

[will2survive]

the divorce and discretions are a real threat to his attempt to catch Nicklaus and his 18 majors

[ronaldo922]

he'll be fine, dont worry

[freelee]

he was on the juice at a young age so it's hard to tell if he was ever really that good in the first place

[Grux]

These tour players are going to awaken a sleeping giant.

Rookie says Tiger mailed in final round at Torrey Pines

Rookie Brendan Steele didn't see eye-of-the-tiger intensity from Tiger Woods when he was paired with Woods in the final round of the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines on Sunday. Steele shot 70 en route to a T17 finish, while Woods shot 75 to finish tied for 44th. Afterward, Steele said that Woods appeared to lose interest in his round Sunday once he started to struggle, according to an article in this week's issue of Sports Illustrated.
"I don't think he gave it everything today," Steele told SI. "Once it started going in the wrong direction, I don’t think it had his full attention."
Throughout his career, Woods has been known as a grinder who brings maximum effort and focus to every shot on the course. However, that legendary intensity has appeared to flag at times, most recently during the second round at last year's Quail Hollow Championship, when Woods shot 79 and missed the cut.

[TexansFan]

I'm not going to read all the replies so someone may have already stated this as the reason. Tiger was so superior for so long because of his putting. All the guys on tour can play, it most always comes down to putting. Tiger was making putts from everywhere, that's not the case anymore.

[pavyracer]

He blew out his knee to win a major in a playoff and hasn't been the same since. He started sleeping around, then his wife left him and took his money and kids and now he can't make a 4 ft putt or find the fairways. His life and game spiraled out of control for one stupid mistake of playing with a major injury on his knee.

those are the key words. He faded & realizes guys aren't gonna bow down to him anymore.

I agree. His putter is average now. He no longer makes those big time putts.

[DrunkHorseplayer]

Now that he's no longer the big dog in the kennel and the other players don't bow down to him, he simply can't handle it. He's been "working on his swing" for over a year now; look for him to go winless the next two years and retire at the end of 2012.

[SBRMAN23]

He will be back to normal soon this is dumb to say he's tiger fucn woods

[36mafia]

guy should hang it up already

shell of his former self

[36mafia]

[Hawkeye2009]

HE WILL ALWAYS be the best guys

[tripas for lunch]

Its unreal

I never saw a guy go from the top to a medicoire player so fast

He has no shot to win at all, shot all over the place

David Duval went from the top to being a bottom of the barrel crap player in the same amount of time.

[jjgold]

Trust me on this, he's done.

Also he is not playing enough, he should play every fukkin week

[DrunkHorseplayer]

If anyone is stupid enough to think Tiger has a shot at The Masters, I'll put up 1,500 points against their 200 points.

[Bulldog-53]

Dude, I spotted phony ever since his senior year at Stanford.

How did you do that since he only played 2 years at Stanford?

[The Seer]

Kaymer -120 and Westwood even over Woods was a gift in Dubai. Tiger is 2 over on the front 9. He just missed a 3 footer. You can make a killing off fading his ass.

gold mine

i always lay him on making the top ten and top five, which he rarely does
