Not to mention a difficult time scoring

He certainly didn't have a difficult time "scoring" when he was still married to Elin.

"I just hit it 290 with a 5-wood?"

What? I'd be surprised if he couldn't hit a 5-wood 80 yards farther than me.

I agree. The only thing more disgusting than Woods is the man-crush so many male sports reporters have for him. If I didn't know any better, I'd think that ESPN and The Golf Channel were paid PR firms hired to boost his image. They see the king in new clothes while I just see a punk.

“I just hit it 290 with a 5-wood?”

That’s the problem, he can’t get away from the power and distance. At the expense of flexibility he bulked up for strength. Something on the body is going to give way.

Quitting because you aren’t doing well is not exactly good form.

He didn't look to me like he was having trouble walking a few weeks ago when he played OK at the Masters in fits and starts. And it's not as though he's done much since then. And if he was having that much trouble walking, why bother playing to begin with?

On top of everything else, he's become an excuse-making quitter now to boot.

Since his putting is still working, he should join the Putt-Putt Miniature golf league.

Plenty of hot senior babes to tempt him.

I would be surprised if Tiger makes it the US Open next month. At this point he should take the rest of the season off and do what ever he needs to do to fix his knee. If and when he does come back, I doubt if he will ever win another tourney. The younger guys are way too good these days and they are many of them.

"I am having a hard time walking," Woods said.

Considering his third leg is most important to him, it seems to me he still has two left.

You don’t often see someone in the public eye like Tiger fall from such tremendous heights so quickly. He was probably the most known athelete in the world. He was on Michael Jordan levels before the “incident”. Now, he’s just another schlub on the PGA tour....

Didn't some weenie golfer get the Supreme Court to allow him to use a golf cart in PGA events?
If it was just a walking problem, why didn't Woods flag down a cart?
Feckin' loser.

He handed the club back to caddie Steve Williams and said, "I just hit it 290 with a 5-wood?"

According to Shot Link he flew his 5 wood 279 yards, after a drive of 327. Those are not the numbers of someone who is injured. He withdrew because of his bad score.
