The 2011 Players Championship

He's played 5 events this year and has Top 10'd 3 times. Most other touring pros would give their left nut to "struggle" like that.


First off I said "by his standards and most top touring pros standards" maybe I should have been more specific, by top touring pros I meant the elite players like Mickelson, Kaymer, Donald, and McDowell, guys that have actually won tournaments, these guys have multiple wins and laid claim to major tournament trophies since Tiger has won anything at all. When Tiger's game is fine he's better than all of them and right now I highly doubt they would trade their wins and major trophies for his couple of top 10's.

So far this year I've seen Tiger hit a couple of shanked 120 yd drives, chunk a couple of wedges in the water from 40 yards out, skull chips across greens, miss a green 12 yds to the left from 50 yds out and miss a 2 ft putt while in contention at Augusta, I've never ever seen Tiger do that when his game is fine, not even as an amature. Just because he made a Sunday run at at his home court of Augusta doesn't convince me his game is fine, I'll have to see more than that, JMO.

For the record he's only got 2 top 10's in 6 events this year unless you count the Tavistock cup (a tie for 2nd) which I don't. The record is a tie for 4th, a tie for 10th, a tie for 34th, a tie for 44th, a missed cut and a WD. That may be alright for a Heath Slocum or a Jeff Overton but it doesn't seem like the record of a Tiger Woods with a game that is fine to me. If and when his game is fine he'll win just like he always has, plain and simple, after all he's Tiger Woods and when Tiger Woods has his game he wins and wins regularly. Again JMO.

I haven't seen anyone claim his game is fine. I was making the claim it wasn't in the crapper as someone else claimed.

You're post is right about him although a bit inaccurate concerning the others. McDowell has won only one tournament on the PGA tour. Donald has won only two times himself but has finished in the top ten dozens of times. Kaymer won the PGA, but only because of a sh***Y ruling against Johnson.
