Back surgery is a serious thing. Woods breaking Jack Nicklaus' records is looking more and more remote.

He’ll need to take the rehab slowly.

There will be muscle mass loss, and that too, must be taken slowly.

The connective tissue does not regenerate as quickly as the muscle.

But could be mounting a serious attempt at Wilt Chamberlains record?

Back surgery is a serious thing.

Very so for a golfer. May never get close to his form again.

Well, guess I won’t be watching the Masters this year. Unless John Daly is competing for the jacket over the weekend.

Is this a result of the extreme conditioning he participated in during his younger years?

Probably affect his pursuit of white women also.

the whole creation called “Tiger Woods” ended when Earl passed away. Jack’s 18 is safe.

Wow...back surgery leading to ‘missing’ The Masters. It’s a wonder the powers-to be didn’t cancel or at least reschedule this year’s Masters to accomodate his return.

If this is really what’s ailing him, he’ll come back better than ever.

This raises an interesting situation. Tiger is currently 44th on the Ryder Cup points list. He might be back in time for the British Open, and probably back for the PGA Championship. Unless he wins one of those, he probably won’t make the team. So the question is, if you’re captain Tom Watson, do you use a captain’s pick on Tiger?
