A big mystery on why his results haven’t been very good. Only playing here because he needs FedEx Cup points, it’s a great course for him because he hits lot’s of greens, but his putting is not very good. Gosh, what happens to him next year with the long putter ban?

More info:
I know how poorly he has played in the majors this year, but he feels that he is close (could be lying to us, wouldn’t be the first time). All I can say is that you can get 50 to 1 on a Tiger win, not a bad risk even with his terrible play this year.
this course has bermuda greens now
When you say Tiger should think about hanging it up, are you referring to the player who won 5 tournaments and was Player of the Year two seasons ago, then was sidelined for a year with back surgery? Just checking.
We live in the era of social media when all people can recall is the past few weeks or months. Pretty unreal.
Yes I am, Tiger is so lost it’s now sad. Also look at his 2013 season, yes he won four times but all of those wins were very inconsistent. He played well in the first two rounds and then hung on for dear life. Tiger was a shell of what he was in his prime, but he was able to keep it together because his swing was consistent and Tiger was able to putt and scramble real well. Those days are gone and the chances on him regaining them are running out. He has lost two key parts to his game, his confidence and his swing. He is inbetween swings and may be lost on that for a while.
I would love to see Tiger regain his form, but I just don’t think it’s going to happen.
He’s never going to be where he in terms of tournament performance, partially because of his age, and because the new era guys of their 20s are so good. But his game will continue to get better. His putting has flashes. Two weeks ago, after starting +3 through 4 holes, he played the next 32 at -11 and was 3 shots back at the cut. The fact that he is progressing after coming back from injury too early this year (yes 2015) leads me to believe that he’ll be back. You know how important being in-synch is for golfers, and with his driver putting him in the trees every 3 holes, it’s no wonder that his game is struggling.
Your view is almost everyone’s view, and while I’m a significant minority, I can see through the brutally bad results that he is showing, and can focus on the flashes that tell me he’ll be back.
What more can I say about Tiger shooting 64. Am I wrong in thinking that he will never win again? Who knows. The one thing we have to watch is how Tiger does over the weekend, that has been a weakness for him, even in 2013 when he won four times he played terrible over the weekend. Have mixed emotions on the round, anytime Tiger plays well it’s good for golf, just don’t know in what direction Tiger really is going at.
