sports network in australia. former pro golfer now in the media. does have good connections and should it be true it obviously has come from the scott / williams camps and not tigers.

It's been two tough years for Williams given the problems Tiger has had on and off the course.  I'm not sure how Williams gets paid if Tiger doesn't play.  I'm guessing he gets a base salary, but he's not getting any bonus money for tournament wins right now.  They've been together a long time, so until it's confirmed from a reliable source I doubt it's true.

I do care, yes, when it comes to Stevie and Tiger because Stevie is perhaps the best caddie out there on tour. Give Tiger an average caddy, and he may miss a few shots here and there due to yardage miscalculations.

As for these "rumors", I'm definitely not believing them until there is a source. Stevie is one of Tiger's best friends and if he didn't leave him after the huge sex scandal, he's not going to leave him now. He knows Tiger will be coming back soon and he wants to be with Tiger when (if) he wins those 18th and 19th majors.

Fanny will always be the best caddie on tour

It also appears to me that the Steve/Tiger combo has either gone a bit stale or the friendship is not what it used to be, judging from their interactions on the course in recent years. Just something I personally picked up on.

Don't know what you're talking about. The only thing you might be seeing is the dullness because he hasn't been playing very well. I watch every minute of every golf tournament he plays in, and their relationship hasn't gone a bit stale at all. They communicate as good as ever and are still really good friends, as Tiger said just a few months ago on Jimmy Fallon.

It all comes down to money, when Tiger wins they both make big bucks.  When Tiger doesn't play, he still has huge endorsement deals to pay the bills with but not sure how Steve is compensated.  Steve and Tiger have been happy together because they made a lot of money together, we'll see how strong the friendship is if Tiger isn't able to come back this season.

Don't have him blocked anymore. And even when I did, I could still click on "View" to see his post. Blocking doesn't do much on this site.

    • Agree. The next omission needs to be that ridiculous team concept. Nobody cares about a team when they really don’t represent anything except being a group of diminished morality and/or washed up pro golfers. Or wait, we’ve also got total nobodies who’ve accomplished nothing who now get a participation trophy! Doesn’t that sound invigorating!
    • LIV moving to 72 holes is a subtle admission that 54 holes was nothing but a joke all along. 
    • I was going to start a thread, but this seems like the place.  Yesterday I played my matchplay match at my local club.  My opponent is a notorious sandbagger by reputation.  The pro once pulled his tournament rounds from the past several years and said that it is impossible his tournament rounds are legit based on his handicap. here is what happened last night.  I am getting 4 shots from him.  His current handicap index is 15.3 i shot 45 on the front.   Was down 4 after nine, he had three birdies and shot even par. I was closed out on thirteen, we halved with a bogey.  That bogey put him one over par for his round.   He then took a triple on 14 and then left. As if that wasn’t bad enough, he lied about his score.   I wrote down on my scorecard what the score was.  He put higher values that didn’t affect the outcome of the match to pad his score and apparently make it not look as obvious.   He shot 36 on the front, but claimed 40.  The higher values for his score were in the online scoring app our club uses.  He did it this way: I won #7. He had a 2 foot putt for par that if he made would still lose the hole.   He picked up and said it didn’t matter since I won.  He took a 5 instead of a 4 after picking up a gimme. on #8 his approach shot on this par 4 was 8 inches.  I verbally conceded the putt but I had hit into a hazard.  I finished the hole with a 6.  Instead of birdie he put in for par. on #9, another par 4, his approach was to 18 inches.  I missed my par putt and then knowing how close I verbally conceded the putt.  I missed my bogey putt, he never conceded mine.  Instead of birdie he put down a bogey. He padded his score by 4 shots on the front.  And then did again on 10.  I rinsed one and made 6 on a par 4.  I putted out and he was fishing balls out of the lake so I drove off to the next tee.  He had 15 feet laying two but claimed a 5.     love to know the odds of a 15 handicap being even thru 12 holes on a round of golf. 
    • They've been chuckling since they hooked the shark. I think Greg doesn't realize the jokes on him.
    • to confirm, I'll need a hotel for Friday and Saturday, planning to share with you
