Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Doesn't that graphic kinda contradict the title of the article? I guess it wouldn't work if the URL was: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/golf/tigerwoods/11011019/Tiger-Woods-must-change-his-swing-and-take-pressure-off-his-back-plus-both-achilles-his-left-knee-his-left-calf-his-left-tibia-his-neck-his-left-elbow-and-oh-he-had-LASIK-eye-surgery-twice-so-make-sure-his-swing-doesn't-affect-that-if-he-is-to-save-career-claims-Sir-Nick-Faldo.html :-D

Don't see any contradictions. Tiger's swing is causing him medical issue, and the graphic illustrates his body is falling apart and that he needs to avoid further medical issues at all cost.

As a side note, what a pointed money line from Chamblee this is ...

“Woods reminds me of an ageing Hollywood actor who has had too much plastic surgery,” the Golf Channel analyst said.

Yikes!

Is it his current swing causing issues now, or simply old injuries coming back? That he gets hurt while playing golf doesn't mean it's because of a bad swing and that he would've avoided it with a different one.

We forget that Tiger has beens swinging from the age of three or even earlier?? small wonder he is having problems Check out roofers back or welders eyesight His father had him full time swinging long before his frame was fully developed and he has done brilliantly to get this far without serious long term damage

Ha ha. They just wanted an excuse to post the graphic.

I wonder how the graphic would look for JN, AP or GP. Player was in good shape though, I would think he had the least number of injuries.
