Well, I admit that she could bring me to MY knees as well!
Jack Nicklaus described why Tiger was so dominant back in the late 90's. He said Tiger would show up at the golf course 2 hours before anyone else, and then after the round while everyone else was going home to thier families or making dinner plans Tiger would be the last person on the range, hitting his 300th 7 iron of the evening because his approach at #17 had landed 3 feet to the left and 2 feet farther than he wanted it to.
Now Tiger only plays select tournaments, he shows up at the same time as everyone else, and he heads to the car and off to meet his girlfriend or out to speaking engagements etcetc right after his round.
Quite basic, he is playing less and practicing less, and therefore he is now merely one of the top golfers not The BEST.
Uh, balls. Putter. Shaft. Err, Hole-in-One. It's a crude joke, but there's some assembly required.
What is it about Swedish blonde girls?
I dated a Swedish-American blonde years ago, she was something else...
(Please don't mention this to Mrs. GLC!)
That reminds me of a poster hanging on a guys wall where I used to work. It had a pic of a beautiful model and the caption read "no matter how good she looks, some guy,somewhere is tired of her sh**."
OK, I $ee what he $ee$ in her, but what doe$ $he $ee in him? I mean, he'$ not that great looking. Kinda $kinny and he $ort of remind$ me of Howdy Doody in the face. And how long can talking about golf be interresting to girl$ who don't play? What could it be that'$ attractive to her?
Any gue$$e$?
Jokes aside it is an interesting area of speculation since he was so dominate. I honestly expected that to continue for some time. A couple of observations.
Too true about Butch Harmon, I think he's nuts for getting rid of him but then I don't shoot par. Also at the same time he tanked: knee surgery and a switch to Nike drivers. Now I know there is a 99% chance they aren't the same drivers one would go out and buy, they're probably clones of his old drivers (rumor is they cloned his old irons when he switched those) but he's sure had problems finding the fairway since he switched.
What's amazing is that he remains so popular and ranks in the endorsement money. Haven't a clue how long that'll last.
his mind was blown into the rough
Seems to me it's past the rough and deep in the bush.
He was living with Elin for years before they officially became engaged, so I cannot see how giving her a ring suddenly rendered him incapable of hitting the fairway. It was observed yesterday that the reason all his tee shots were flying right was that he was getting his arms ahead of his body. Quite simple.
