i personally enjoy watching Tiger play. if i were in the field playing a tournament and Tiger wasnt playing that week, it would take a bit of the glory away i would think. if you beat him that week, you know you just beat the best player in the world!...and that would be pretty sweet

Definitely not the case for me, I am eagerly waiting to see Tiger back in action. I can't see the comparison between Tiger and the Yankees. Yankees spend a crapload of $ to pump up their roster into an all-star caliber line-up, whereas, Tiger is on his own, doing his thing. It is nice seeing a lot of these younger players win some tournaments, but to me you gotta beat the best to be called a true champion.

I'm also looking forward to see the Tiger back in action. He's the greatest golfer that ever walked on this planet and it's great to see him play. I really don't understand why some people dislike him. Because the others can't win when he's playing? C'mon! The best man on the course wins. Period. If the others can't beat him, then they have to stop whining and start practicing harder
I heard nobody complain when Michael Jordan was on the top of his career with the Chicago Bulls. Nobody said they weren't going to watch NBA anymore because the Bulls were unbeatable. Why? Because it was FANTASTIC

Tiger is absolutely the man. I think people should strive to play at his level. And no, he doesn't always win (rarely ) but that just means when someone else does, it's that much more special.

Did anyone say they wanted to see him more?

I do.

He plays relatively few tournaments and still is at the top and by a large margin.

Makes what we are seeing now truly history. Doesn't everyone wish they could have seen Nelson and Hogan play in the day?

I guess I'm still in awe of his talent and can't wait to see more of it.

Ok, I know this is going to be a hot potatoe but is there anyone else not looking forward to Tiger returning. I mean, i don't have anything against him, but it's kind of like why I don't like the yankees anymore. After seeing years of the same team or athlete winning almost every week; I really liked watching golf the last few weeks and seeing different people winning each week. Ok, now you Tiger fans can yell at me!

Tiger is great....certainly fun to watch when he's in the hunt.

The problem that I have is how the media coverage of the current players actually playing the course at that moment is eclipsed by previous years footage of Tiger playing the course. Enough already.....put Tiger back on the camera once he's back playing and in the hunt.....aside from that, let's the actual players get the lens time.

I see a lot of guy hit shots on tour that are incredible but listening to some of the schmucks on the course, I just get so mad when he hits a shot that they act like no other player can hit. Almost everything he does becomes more special then it really is. Nick Faldo I don't mind because he has hit some pretty special shots in his time and doesn't exagerate Tigers shots.

I am not in the crowd that thinks Tiger will be the best ever. Golf has become a more athletic game, and kids who are athletes are now playing which means more better athletic golfers. Golf isn't considered dorky like it once was and that can only be good for the competition.

I havent watched much golf since he has been out, think there isnt as much suspense or action or something without his style of play out there. Can't wait for him to be back.

    • On the subject of teenagers in professional tournaments there is a kid (Kris Kim) who is a member of my club in England and is at my old school. He’s 16. He’s playing in the pga tour event in Texas this week. Shot 69 yesterday for T31 and is -2 today through 5 holes. T55 and on the cut line. I really hope he makes the cut. Will be awesome.    His dad I believe is a teaching pro and his mum was on the LPGA Tour for a while. 
    • I have two contenders here that stick out to me: In second place, a putt to win the hole playing the 16th hole at Burnham and Berrow. Playing foursomes and the green has a big bank at the front then a flat bit and then it goes up again to a back shelf. My partner had hit our second shot onto the back shelf. We were 2up at the time and he was being a little wobbly so we didn’t want to lose the hole. Our oppo were conceded a 4 and my partner told me to just lag it down there nicely. 20 year old me meant to do that and failed. I hit it a bit hard and it was definitely going to clear the tier and probably run off the front of the green, but it hit the hole right in the middle and went in. My partner was very happy we won the hole but quite upset at my ability to follow instructions.    Number 2 is my most memorable. I was about 16 playing in the junior knockout at my club. We get to the 10th hole - long par 4 and index 2. I didn’t hit a very good drive, hit my second up about 60 yards short and pitched on to maybe 25 feet. I started walking and I got this feeling. I knew I was going to hole it. There was no doubt at all. I’ve never felt like that any other time in my life but this one putt was a certainty. It was February and the greens had been recently hollow tined so they were in awful shape. I didn’t even line it up. I hit my putt and it bumped and bounced all over the place until it went in the middle of the hole. If I could bottle up that feeling and sell it I’d be up there with Bezos and musk. Mind blowing!
    • It's strange how ONE person can be THAT much different/better/whatever than anyone else.
    • I saw a YouTube review on a bunch of ball brands and the Maxfli Tour X did very well in comparison. I bought a sleeve and found them to be excellent in feel and distance. But I’m a lousy golfer so nobody probably cares about my opinion. 😃
