It's become apparent, golf is done. The top golfers have no personality, there isn't a dominant force. For all is said and done Tiger was golf. Whether he played well or not people watched for him, now they just don't care.

no never watch golfComment -
I watch it every weekend. People watched golf before Tiger and will watch golf after Tiger.Comment -
As much as I can and majors are must see....including todayComment -
Tell that to the 30k +people on the grounds at congressional and the people blowing up the phones where I work looking to spend money on limo service to and from the event........ Thing was a blowout and still had hype. Golf does not strive to be some colossal like football but has a huge religious following and as someone whos father runs a junior golf tour part time know that youth are just as involved as in the past if not more than ever. Golf will be around for a long time to come. Boxing and horseracing on the other hand...... Unfortunately as an avid fan of both am disappointed to say their best days may be behind them.

Great final day of the tournament.Comment -
Say what you want about me but i gotta admit i dont even know who won. No Tiger no golf for me.Comment -
Don't give a fck about golfers personalities. I like to watch quality golf and will continue to regardless if there is a star that appeases the public.Comment -
i like golfComment -
I still watch it but it doesn't have the same appeal w/o Tiger. Watching sports while the all time greatest (or possibly the all time greatest) is competing makes it more enjoyable.Comment -
I watch golf. I don't watch the NBA however.Comment -
honestly haven't watched much ever sincde the Tiger Woods incident as it just doesn't seem to be the sameComment -
The majors are ok but without Tiger the tour is dead, also lack of American talent is hurting. Tv ratings are down. The regular tourneys are dead with little interest.Comment -
I AGREE WITH DOUBLE J----THERE WAS GOLF LONG BEFORE TIGER...and...THERE WILL BE GOLF LONG AFTER TIGER IS RUNNING A CAT HOUSEComment -
Yea ok, there was Jack towards the end. The Shark was entertaining. Few other guys that carried the torch, but with Tiger gone you just feel like you not seeing one of the greatest which makes it way more interesting to watch (for me anyway), Phil isnt phil, that hurts as well. I guess you could call me a casual golf fan (try and play from time to time, not well) and watch when it is important, just doesnt seem like as big a deal to me w/o tiger going for jacks records. No disrespect to the sport i know it tuff as hell, just less watchable w/o tiger and phil at their best.Comment -
u think tiger had a personality?
he was the most scripted robotic person the golfing world has seen. give me a fukkin break.Comment -
People said the same thing about watching poker on TV. That kind of worked out ok for awhile, too!Comment -
i only watch if tiger is playingComment -
I watch often, especially Majors. Rory dominated the US Open for 4 days straight. That was great to watch him finish it up today without choking like last time.Comment -
Not me no tiger no careComment -
Golf is the shit. Although its much more exciting when Tiger is in the field.Comment -
Love it
Cant get enough of it
Hopefully we never see TW againComment -
Golf will always be around with tennisComment -
I watch golf because I play the game....Also looks neat on my HD tv.Comment -
It's more fun to play golf than watch golf especially if you are drinking a 6 pack while you play and refill at the back 9.Comment -
I watch most tournaments, if I'm not out playing golf that day. Tiger is of no significance to me, or most serious golf fans.Comment -
Tiger has done his part for golf in the United States and around the world. It is time for the young guys Fowler, Barnes, Kim and many others to step their game up and carry American golf.Comment -
Golf is great for taking a nap in the afternoons.Comment -
i only tune on on sunday afternoons of majors just to see whats going on but it appears golf is wide open right nowComment -
tiger is watching...jack doesn't seem to care muchComment -
one of the few sports that has pro's competing with youngsters..tom watson in his 60's british open 2 yrs ago...also sport offers you ability to play same courses as pro's...most sports you couldn'tComment -
In Golf and older pro can compete with a younger guy because it's not a strenuous sport like other pro sports.
Without Tiger it is going to be tough unless Rory turns out to be a sensation.Comment
