From Joe Posnanski, Sports Illustrated:

I'm amazed at how he (Posnanski) says Tiger created a world wide circus. Tiger didn't create the circus, TMZ, Radaronline.com, the National Enquirer and every other outlet that fed into it created the circus. Sports Illustrated included. None of them had to take it to the lengths that they did, so with that in mind, I say his take on the commercial is crap. He's trying to stir more discussion and get his hit count up.

I find the commercial a bit creepy but I think it was an effective ad. Effective so much so that it really got people talking about it.

Well I heard it played on ESPN about 15 minutes before he teed off today. I think it shows some balls. I also think that might be the LAST time he goes there. New start. Past is the past. He is looking towards the future. (what the future brings nobody knows) But in general this is the last dig he is gonna give. Me thinks this comercial will not play over and over.

I personally don't have a problem with the commercial and like the idea. I can see his father saying those things to him at the point he is at right now. I have no sympathy for tiger but I like the commercial.

My thoughts exactly...i dont really care what he did,im a fan of his golf,not his personel life...

it was rediculous; they're trying to spin some good off of what he did. I was reall pissy about everything initially, but I beleive he's truly sorry for what he did, and I beleive he's earnestly trying to change things about himself... but the commercial? Obsurd!

Awards, Achievements, and Accolades

I showed it to my wife this morning and she got a little teary eyed watching it. She knows the story about how he was always close to his dad and that he's dead now. She's no Tiger fan, but she does have a very close relationship with her dad and knows that one day she too will have to learn how to live life without him in it.

I kid....I kid...(but not really). Not surprising to me. Bottom line is he just needs to hit the dam ball!

The commercial, IMO, has more than accomplished the task at hand. I view Tiger like I viewed Jordan. I recognize greatness, but am I an unabashed fan....not quite. I prefer to see someone give him a compelling bit of competition.

    • Yes, this is the 2024 model. DSG ruined what Callaway perfected for most golfers. A darn good 3 piece golf ball. Now it's a 2 piece cheap ball. To me a 2 piece ball is fine and a 3 piece budget ball is better. I prefer a slightly harder ball, something in the 65-75 compression range that will perform similar to the old Gamer. The Titleist tru-feel is pretty good. I planned on giving Maxfli straightfli a try.
    • Is that the current generation Gamer? Another old standby for a firm and inexpensive ball is Pinnacle.  There are two models, the Rush and the Soft, but I don’t know what compression they are.
    • Good advice, but according to DSG website it is a 45 compression ball. My current ball is the Top-flite Gamer at 70. 45 is too low for me to go.
    • The 3 piece Maxfli Trifli is 2 dozen for $35.  The Trifli does not feel as soft as the Maxfli Softfli, which is why I like it. Other options would be one of the Srixons, which have a buy 2 get 1 free offer.
    • I have been carrying a 7 wood more often this year.  It’s especially handy if you have a downhill lie to an uphill green.  It’s also handy if the rough on the course is deep.
