According to a Sports Illustrated poll, almost a quarter of top PGA Tour golfers think that Woods has taken drugs.

Twelve months ago he was both feared and revered. Now he is viewed by many of his peers as a cheat on and off the course.

I know the PGA now tests for PEDs (as of about a two years ago), but can HGH be tested for yet?

...on the Elin front, the latest is she is going to file for divorce. Evidently the list that Tiger gave her that was suppose to name all the women he was involved with.......didn’t include their neighbor. Problem being, Elin knew about it (the neighbor) long before this all blew up.

He had an affair with the neighbor? If he really did sleep with over 100 women during his short marriage..the man has a big big psychological problem that needs to be addressed.

I guess she is tired of the serial lying.

Here is a good Phil Mickelson joke. Phil on Thursday suffered from dehydration and need 2 IV bags. He is playing great and is two shots off the lead. This happened last year at Doral in Miami and is was warm but not hot. Phil won that tournament. I guess is happened before that two.

“Yeah, I’m 2-for-2,” ... “The last two times I’ve fainted and woken up in a pool of vomit, I’ve won. Laying there on the floor wondering where I am, a good omen came over me”

Check out what he said today. Phil can be funny as h*ll.

he slept with 121 women not 100 and the neighbor’s daughter wasn’t on the list-she was extra so it was 122

Maybe he is. Or maybe he's just flat out better than them without any steroids or HGH. Same rumors about Manny Pacquiao, and other athletes at the very top of their fields.

Yeah sure. He missed the cut at The British Open last year when a 16 year old amateur from Italy missed losing by about 7 shots.

People who post here who played on the mini tour and worked out in the gym endlessly. Any person who works out knows he is on the juice.

If they do as they test in other sports, they know what the range for HGH is in normal, control subjects, and then if the testing for an athlete is out of the normal range, they are hammered. The art for a crooked sports doctor, is to try to get the test results into the normal range, while significantly altering the athlete’s performance.

Blood doping is the toughest I’ve heard about. Endurance sports athletes have blood taken weeks before an event then put back in days before an event. The volume of blood, O2 enriched of course is enhanced and hence greater endurance. There is really no good way to test for enhanced blood volume at all.

Sigh.

No maybes about it. Tiger was piling up majors and regular tour wins when he was a skinny beanpole. In fact, his winning % was higher back in those days.

He got a LOT bigger after struggling through some injuries about 5 years ago, so it's not unreasonable to believe that he may have started taking HGH to recover more quickly from those injuries. Then he probably liked the way he looked and felt and continued taking them. But of course that part is speculative.

I'm not a fan of Tiger's on-course demeanor, but there's no question he's by far the best player on tour, and has been for a long time. ....long before he started looking like a Barry Bonds wannabe.

He began as a skinny beanpole but eventually began bulking up similar to HGH/steroid users. He has acknowledged being “treated” during his knee rehab by a Canadian doctor who was caught at the border with HGH. Note how much skinnier Tiger is now from when he was bulked up - he’s been ridin’ dirty!

Of course Woods is on roids.

I work out at the gym, but there is no way a human being can alter a small skeletal frame like Woods' without steroids.

He still maintains his tiny wrists, but those massive arms are the product of the damn roids.

Check this out regarding the Canadian doctor who was probably giving Woods the roids he wanted:

If Tiger is innocent, he is the only one who has ever visited with this Dr who is not on the juice....yea right.

The PGA has always known about this, yet they suspend fringe players. Several players have called for more rigid testing with Woods indirectly referenced.

The moderators threatened to ban me for accusing Woods of doping.....someone needs to tell my wife that I'm finally right for once.
