Phony Phil

The thing I can't stand about him is he's such a corporate shill. Before he said the Nike comments he took a huge dig a callaway calling their iron designs "shovels." Now he's all "Callaway's so great . . . I'm bombing past where I was last year . . . blah blah blah" I just don't trust a word the guy says.

Man I am happy to hear that other feel the same way about Phil that I do. I am so tired of hearing about how awsome his game is. We will see at the players, and the masters. We could see it this week at Bayhill, but phil is too good to play with the 1,2,and 3 ranked players in the world. I have not been a Vijay fan, but have really started to enjoy watching him. I like the fact that Vijay, Tiger, Ernie, Love, Toms, Justin, and all the other class acts like to compete with each other. When is Phil going to step up and play regularly. Last year he quit early, and this year he acts like he is too good to play the regular events.

I cant stand that fake smile!!

I like phil and until i know him personally, i wont venture a guess and say he's fake! I have no problems with tiger except his spoiled baby like expressions when things arent going his way. As far as being in a foursome with either one.....give me a guy like darren clarke that i could sit down with after and quaf a few ales and fire up a fine cigar with!

I guess that is the same thing Vijay was talking when he said, "Is that the true Phil? Are you seeing the real person." Golf World had this comment in this weeks or last weeks sound bite column.

Phil might be able to 'fly it by Tiger', but that's only because he's able to get his weight into the ball. It's really too bad that Amy Mickelson is with Phil. They sort of look like the number 10.

So let me get this straight Phill is a phoney and a corporate shill.Ok Lets start with Tiger,Tiger is a racist against his own race.He has nor does he want any black friends IE his best friends are Mark omera and his wife is white.Have you ever seen Tiger with black friends no white caddies even went to stanford for a cup of tea so he could say he went to a white college.Shill?Up untill this year he would not go to another cars tourney except Buick.Next up the man I like to call the cheater Vijay Singh lets see caught cheating on Asian tour,treats his caddies like slaves and is known on tour as tight with a buck so most caddies want nothing to do with him or his attitude.The big easy's father was a leading arparthied supporter and owned many kafka's.Goosen's family though not as political owned a large farm outside soweeto if my memory serves me well.Phill may not be all he seems but what he tries to portray is americana and thats better than the rest.

Wow let us know how you really feel. In response to all the comments. Is it opinion or fact that tiger has 0 black friends, went to SU cause it is a white college, and married cause she is white? I would say Opinion!! I would also like to say that you dont choose your friend cause of the color of there skin, you choose them because of the person they are inside. The same comment about skin color and the person goes to the caddie. Woods and William both said this about there relationship.

"He's so positive out there, keeps me upbeat," Woods said. "I get on him, he gets on me. We have a good time out there. Even if I'm playing good or bad, we're going to enjoy each other's company."

"It's one of those things, when you find that perfect partner, you're just so calm with each other," Williams said of Woods. "We've become very good mates. We socialize together. It's one of those things that's developed, not something I planned on happening."

As for his schedule he can play when he wants! Previously he played in dubia, and who could blame him for the money he was getting to go over there.

As for the rest of the comments about Vij, Ernie, and Retief You are really scraping the bottom of the bucket. I would say that Vijay, Tiger, and Goosen dont portray themselves as the all round good guy like phil does. No fake smiles, nothing fake, they are themselves. For you to be critical of Ernie cause of what his father has done or does that is nuts. He is his own man.

I think the last comment you made "Phill may not be all he seems but what he tries to portray is americana " is exactly what we all are talking about.

Wow. So you're one of

those people? The ones that think everything is still a racial issue? No one ever said anything about Phil thinking any certain way because he is light-skinned, so why attack Tiger and call him a racist? Silly, silly, silly. Not to mention uncalled for, unfair and rude. You're free to have your opinion, of course, but I see no basis for it other than reasons you stretched for. Stanford is a "white" college? People who think like that make me sick. Everything doesn't have to be black and white. As for all the crap (yes, crap) you brought up about Goosen and Els' families... what the hell? What do their families have to do with anything? Everyone knows Vijay isn't the friendliest guy on Tour, that's obvious and no secret at all. But none of these guys put on a clearly fake smile the way that Phil does. At least most of the comments about Phil have been verified facts.
