Keep in mind Tiger spent his entire life under Daddys wing. it was golf golf golf...
Then he makes it, becomes one of the richest athletes in the world, suddenly daddy is gone and now he is free and filthy rich with a lot of life to catch up on....
You can talk about all the great ones of the past, but not one of them played as good as Tiger, he was funnnnn, noooo exciting to watch, so we tolerated his arrogance and obvious disdain for those he deemed not to be worthy of his time....what would we expect, his Dad was an arrogant a$$hole, so why wouldn't Tiger follow suit, at least he has a reason to be aloof, his Dad didn't do sh!t, he was just a pr!ck!
So he sets a new standard of play for pro golf, and rips everyone up while living the lifestyle of a kid who just got his 1st apartment, only rich...now his problem is not only that he is mentally spent, burned up, done, it wouldn't matter if he did start playing like he used to because the field not only accepted his challenge, they raised him!
Now almost everyone drives at least as far as he did, and has a bag of shots the old timers wouldn't even think about trying to pull off(excluding Seve)...nobody has a few cocktails to steady the nerves, they are athletes!
He's done, I miss Tiger, he was fun to watch, he even got me to watch TV golf, but I don't miss Tiger, I'm glad he is done, his attitude outside the ropes was as sh!tty as his game was good....the great "Cablanasion" hope is a now a memory, and I personally don't think he gives a d@mn, I think he is perfectly OK with it...as am I.
