I think you are right. Some fellow here at FR has posted on picture of his biceps and forearms. They had to have been due to either ROIDs or HGH.

He or another poster had played mini tours or tried to get on the tour. He practiced like crazy, became a gym rat and he said no way he could get that big. This FR member said that he had shot in the low 70s or better at the NY public course that played the US Open last year. On the daunting Bethpage Black Course from the tips (pro tees in the back).

Yep. Giambi came clean, got off the ROIDs and I think he is out of baseball now. I think the PGA looked the other way with Tiger cause he is a money machine for golf. They started drug testing a week after his “knee injury” when he took time off from golf to get the knee fixed. I think this is when he stopped.

When he came back he was good but not great. He look lousy at the end of last season in Shanghai where Mickelson won. On the last three holes - Tiger hit into the water twice.

Sure, could be a combination of things.
But we do know he had visits and ties to the Canadian doc being indicted for international trafficking of HCH and anabolic steroids.
And, I’ve seen enough steroids On- steroids Off athletes to know what changes their bodies go through.

And in this guy’s opinion, tiger is a fairly classic case of Steroid On - Steroid Off.

Part of which of course is injury. One of the resaon steroid athletes do so well is the lack of injury and the quick recovery they have.
But as soon as the steroids cease > injury time.

I do not think Tiger is going to last much longer in golf. His mental side of the game is screwed up now.

I agree. They way he is going it should be considered he be kept on "suicide alert".

Video: TV Anchor Makes On Air R-Rated Slip About Tiger Woods' Bulging...

"An anchor on the Golf Channel made an embarrassing slip when referring to Tiger Woods withdrawal from The Players Championship in Florida on Sunday, TMZ reported.

Woods, who was playing in his third tournament since returning from his self-imposed sex scandal exile that lasted nearly five months, blamed a bulging disk in his upper back for his decision to pull out of the $9.5 million tournament.

But while reporting on the withdrawal of Woods, the female anchor instead blamed a "bulging d**k."

During the last tournament even a 8 year old kid heckled Tiger Woods. He does provide jokes, many of which write themselves.

He is no big loss to golf. If the media built up this empty suit as a Super Hero, they can take another player and build him up. I could never understand the adoration of Tiger, never considered getting a little ball into a little hole as heroic.
