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.

      PGA Tour Makes Sweeping Changes Starting in 2028

      By iacas · Posted

      The highlights as I see them: Championship and Challenger Series The creation of the PGA Tour and the PGB Tour, in the words of Joel Dahmen a few years ago. They're calling them the Championship Series (23-24 events) and the Challenger Series (20+ events). Both run February to August. They feel this will achieve three things: increasing the consistency and quality of fields across the season creating a clear system for players to earn and retain status and delivering a more structured and competitive experience for fans and partners—all in an effort to strengthen meritocracy. Championship Series Structure and Eligibility The 23-24 events includes the Players, majors, season-ending events, and the Presidents Cup and Ryder Cup. These will be 72-hole events with a 36-hole cut to the top 65 and ties and purses of $20M+. 120 players without an alternate list. 90 players (roughly) from the previous year and 20 players promoted from the Challenger Series. Full eligibility will be finalized later this year. Sites (cities) to be finalized soon, but 10 of the 15 courses have already been determined. Postseason: includes retention and relegation and concludes with match play. The Tour Championship will also be played across a rotation of prestigious courses. Challenger Series Structure and Eligibility 20+ events. Running concurrently. Will feature players fighting their way back to the Championship Series or players graduating and on the upswing from the Korn Ferry Tour. Many of these events will be current PGA Tour courses. About 7 of the Challenger Series events will be during off weeks for the Championship Series with elevated purses and visibility. Purses of at least $4M, with cuts similar to the Champ series. 144 player fields. Competitive Fields for Both Series Players will be eligible for only one series at a time: Championship Series Players are not eligible for Challenger Series events. Championship Series members will have a known schedule with all events having the same eligibility. Players and Majors will have their own eligibility criteria. Championship Series players don't have to play all events. This begs the question about, say, the Canadian Open, and other "home-town" events that players might want to play, even if they're Challenger Series events. Will releases be granted? Promotion and Relegation At least 90 players will be retained in the Championship Series, and 20 players will be promoted from the Challenger Series each year. Battlefield promotion for two-time winners from the Challenger Series. Players relegated from the Championship Series will have a "last chance" opportunity to retain status, or will go to the Challenger Series. Criteria will be finalized before the start of the 2027 season. Points System New points system (not FedExCup points). Separate points systems for the Championship and Challenger Series. Elevated points in the Challenger Series for off-weeks on the Championship Series. More details tk. Elevated International Events in the Fall The fall schedule will include a limited series of elevated international events with top players from the Championship Series, with the intent to deliver in partnership with the DP World Tour as part of the Strategic Alliance. Last Chance Series The Tour will develop a “last chance” series of 4-6 events in the fall, with a limited number of spots on the Championship Series available for top finishers. Eligibility will include players relegated from the Championship Series, Challenger Series players, and other categories to be determined. Q-School continues, as do the Korn Ferry Tour and PGA Tour Latinoamerica. Also, Brian Rolapp is the new commissioner as of January 1, 2027.

      Yes, because you have lifted to like 120° without bending the left elbow. So when you turn and the left elbow bends… it bends in such a way that you then lower your left humerus and pull the club around you.
