    Tiger Woods: Does Anybody Even Care?

    I understand that he was once one of the best ever, but... BYE!!
    He's done. I listen to and watch a lot of golf and I'm sick of hearing his name. He is a washed up has been that will never win another tourney. Can we stop glossing him already. I don't care what club he's swinging, what ball he's hitting, or what shirt he's wearing. The game is going to be just fine without him.
    Does anybody even care if he comes back???

            I would love to see a lot of guys come back. Always cool to see a comeback story. Aaron Watson prime example. Or Willie. Or Cash.

            Not to mention, Tiger made the sport of golf cool again. Look how many kids started playing after watching him? Why do you think there are all these young guys playing now that can out drive Tiger even when he was at his best?

              I get the sentiment but think you severely underestimate his impact on golf. NO ONE has had a bigger impact on golf from a financial standpoint. Purse money has increased at least 10x, the number of amateur players has boomed worldwide, equipment manufacturers, etc. In fact, the single biggest reason the golf business is struggling right now is Tiger is no longer in the field.

              Afraid you will continue to hear his name for several more decades

                I'd like to think he will come back and get a few more wins, but I don't think it is going to happen. I don't think he needs to be completely gone. Look at what he's done for the sport in general...there's not another guy out there that has brought that many people into the game. He has been hard on his body throughout his career and he's paying for it right now.

                  If he gets healthy and starts hanging around those high dollar "escorts", he will end up besting Jack's record...




                  With that being said, he is done. Golf is 100% mental and he is not even at 50%.

                    every golfer has back issues, but tigers is different, his back/spine is deteriorating, you lose a lot of flexibility and the ability to strike the ball over time and its hitting him hard, I'm the biggest fan of tiger out there, I started playing golf when I was 2, and when I was in high school that's when he was at his greatest..

                    with his type of back injury it might take him years to get back to 100%..maybe, it truly is his physical game that is letting him down

                      Golf needs him to come back. $$$

                      So yes, people care. But your rant is duely noted by the 234 people who will see it.

                        Nope. He is done. His swing mechanics do nothing but put stress on his back. He will never be able to compete at that level for any extended amount of time ever again.

                          This is spot on. I'm in the golf industry and Tiger was easily the biggest reason for the growth of the sport from the late 90's. I'm not saying that I'm a big fan, but the sport is better off when he's involved. Others will help bridge the gap but it won't be the same without him. I agree that his competitive days are most likely over and it's kind of sad watching someone that undeniably dominated the game for a decade, breakdown in front of us.

                            I get tired of hearing about him and when he plays they feature him even when he is 5 over par and hacking it all over the course.

                              NOBODY beats Father Time

                              TW's body has broken down due to several reasons: very aggressive swing, and his body is old ... he's been a golf prodigy since he could walk and probably been hitting a thousand golf balls a day for 35+ yrs.

                              If he was smart, he should duplicate the swing of the 78 yr old gray haired lady who plays from the yellow tees. 150 yds straight down the fairway and uses the same golf ball for 18 holes
