We all know Tiger is the best golfer to play the game, ever. There are numerous records that will take years to break if anyone ever does. His fist pump transformed the game. He brought an energy that made people come to watch golf who probably never would have. But, Tiger has a weakness. I think he has two. 

1. He is really bad at high fives. I mean really bad. This video is a pretty good summary of numerous bad high fives. To support those of you who think he is awful at high fives I present a couple of photos.

2. He is also not very good at logo design. His TGR logo is strange, and I admit I have no idea what he was going for. His new Sun Day Red logo looks like he made a prehistoric version of the Slazenger logo. I don't think it is a good look to have a dinosaur Slazenger on an aging golfer, but that's just me. Here are the exhibits for the case against Tiger's logo design being his biggest weakness.

Tiger didn't design the logos, so… I voted high fives. But… maybe it was Stevie who was bad at them?

I dunno, Stevie started to pure his high fives once he was on Adam Scott's bag....

I also voted high fives.

He learned to just put his hand up and leave it there.

Plus, it was his way of keeping Tiger humble.

Logo design. TGR at least wasn't horrible but the latest one is just plain bad. The tiger's hind legs look like they are coming off it's its belly. The leap has no ferocity and breaking up Sunday in two words makes no sense and does not land the purpose, if there is one.

The missed high fives? Meh.

He could have barfed all over the floor. I am sure the designers would have gotten the hint. Lol

"But as TaylorMade CEO David Abeles explained that it has to do with “the rule of threes,” and then how golf is played in the “sun” and not just on Sundays. So it’s Sun Day Red!"

Wow, all of that compressed in a logo? I guess I am too simple minded to be impressed.

The logos are bad. I don't care that he didn't personally design them, they're his brand, ergo, his logos.

I assume he was involved in the approval of the logos, whoever designed them.

I voted that he is worse at high-fives. Although I think he is awful at logo design approvals. I don't think Tiger sat down with a sketch pad and came up with the logo himself. However, he gave the nod of approval. The person who did come up with the logo has to be the luckiest SOB in the logo design world. Six months from now he very well could be working at Starbucks.

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By Clemsonfan · Posted

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
