Tiger isn’t and wasn’t worthy of winning! Enough said! For all those that think different, immorality matters in life!
“CBS and the golf establishment want Woods to be the story because Woods is, or was, one of the few athletes that transcended his sport. People who didn’t follow golf followed Tiger Woods. The same could be said of Ali and Michael Jordan. “
Spot on. I never cared about Basketball until Jordan came along and never, ever watched golf until Tiger came along.
I don’t watch either anymore except NCAA round ball.
I never thought of golf as a bastion of nationalism, I like watching good golf, I don’t care where the player comes from......unless it’s the Ryder Cup.
Indeed. I, and even golf-illiterate wife, enjoyed it!

I assume from that God has made you His judge.
The Masters: Tiger’s charge proves he’s back, this once.
Well, perhaps you should rethink that. There's a fair amount of animosity out there coming form the Europeans. We need to hold together, and not only in the Ryder Cup. Look, listen, and find out what's going on...
He did make some great putts, too. We are just accustomed to his almost flawless putting. He showed me today that it is coming together, although he was unlucky with some today.
That shot from Luke Donald and then the subsequent shot from off the green was probably the highlight of the back nine today. Incredible.
No, the Bible tells me so... Have you read it? I am not the judge, only following the advise given...
He ain’t back yet. His problem since the Thanksgiving of doom hasn’t been an inability to put together 1 good round, it’s been an inability to put together back-to-back good rounds, forget the 3 in a row which used to mark his reign. Yeah he was great today, and stank yesterday.
Golf is a “head” game — he does not have his “head” in the game. As much as CBS and their motley crew of commentators would like to see him win BIG — ain’t goona happen!!
He has way too much on his plate to be thinking golf!!
I felt for him too.
Yes, I've read it. Have you? If you have, I suggest you do so again, and filter in your relationship to God, and to your fellow man. If you judge, what will be your judgement? God will judge after we leave this Earth. What happens before that is in His hands.
I really felt bad for McIlroy...
He totally fell apart in the back nine. I saw his interview right after and was totally impressed with his poise after such a devastating loss. He’s only 21, I’m sure he’ll be back and win the thing.
While Tiger made a great charge on the front nine, he spit the bit coming in. Short par putt miss on 12, short eagle putt miss on 15. Missed numerous birdie opportunities on the back 9 and played it at par. And the article lies when they claim other players folded - only McIlroy wilted while a bunch of players stepped up and made this a great Masters. The winner Schwarzel as well as the 2 Aussie boys, and Oglivy all completely outshone Tiger at the finish.
I do believe it was the best tourname I have watched in many years. At one time Tiger was a great master of the mechanics but I have never admired him as a person. He seems to remind me a bit of Obama. Glad to see such a wide field of young talent - but where are the Americans? Are we no longer able to excel at anything?
Agreed - his on course/camera behavior is pathetic. I see no other player out there no matter how bad a shot they hit yell, spit, curse, whine and beyatch like he does.
Even though Tiger didn’t win, you really have to feel sorry for Rory McIlroy, who probably had the biggest “choke job” since Greg Norman’s infamous meltdown in 1996.
I personally was rooting for Angel. Very consistent in his game and he had at least 3 missed birdies where the ball lipped the cup. Great approaches.
