Anyone else hear this rumor? If so, who would be next? (admins if this should be in the Tiger thread feel free to merge.)

Probably stemmed from this tweet:

Secret Tour Pro sounds familiar. Something controversial in the past.

I have my doubts, because who the f is this guy, but it could be. Seems a bit premature, but who knows.

If it's true they they are going their separate ways, it would not be to much a surprise to me. I am of the opinion that at this stage in Woody's golf career, he just might be a tough student to satisfy.

I just checked the golf channel, and there is nothing there about it. You'd think if it were something more than a rumor, Chamblee would be slobbering all over himself trying to report it.

I guess I don't understand why he ever went to him in the first place if this is true. Tiger Woods knows more about a golf swing than most people walking the earth. How could he call him :poo: ? Wouldn't  he have realized he wasn't the right person on day 1?

Also, I would've been pissed if my coach was wearing soccer shin guards as well. I mean, come on. Does he hide in a plastic bubble during long iron sessions? What a way to instill confidence in a guy. If you can't dodge a wayward chip shot, or take one for the team, stick to shuffleboard.

Golfers of all ability levels struggle to know WHAT single thing to fix first and HOW to fix it best.

Tiger has not ever really demonstrated that he knows a lot about fixing his own swing. he'll say he wants to know how to fix it mid-round, but… when has he ever really consistently demonstrated even the need to do it mid-round when he finally "gets" a swing down?

That article was a joke… you know, right?

Did he fire Chris?   I can't find anything online from a reliable source that says he did.

Already?! doesnt seem 2 minutes ago he announced him as his new coach/mentor/b*tch.

Tiger must have the highest turnover of staff in the US :-P

NP, sorry for not having my sarcasm meter properly raised :) Como wearing shin guards probably should've been a tip off!

I didn't take the tweet too seriously. How hard is it to write a tweet? Until I read it on TigerWoods.com, then I'll consider it to be true.

Golf Channel is ramping up the speculation, noting Como isn't in DC. He wasn't w/him in the OC, yes?

    • Day 76 - Pretty sore today, so I opted for putting over my Stack session. Primary focus was on starting line, as my putting has been pretty poor this year. 
    • Been a bit of delay in updates but I needed to come back east as my mom's health has taken a serious turn for the worse. In a 3 day span we learned she had a tumor to she has stage 4 cancer and stopped eating and drinking for the most part. She has had a rough 3 months but certainly didn't think we'd be at the point of setting up hospice for her. My mom was never into any sports really other than following the Red Sox because my dad was a big fan. She always cared about what we were involved in including asking about how golf went.  I have kept up with my 5 minutes of daily practice and will go to the gym here in NH tomorrow morning. Despite the somber nature of this trip my family has commented more than a few times about my weight loss so it's important to me to keep it up. I know my mom always wanted us happy in whatever we did so I'll continue with my fitness journey keeping that in mind. 
    • Day 109- Putting drills on a putting green for 20 minutes. 
    • Day 252: did a stack session. Did some slow rehearsal swings during breaks. 
    • Day 82: 3/18/24 Tried a Stack session but could not certify my warmup. Finished with indoor chips and putting.
