If Tiger and Patrick Reed get paired together on the final day will they both where red and black?

Probably. Tiger isn't the first to start that trend and Rocco did in the US Open playoff.

People never cease to amaze.

Tiger knows plenty right now.

Good for Tiger. By now, with all he has been through, he has to know, and own his own swing. He's past needing swing coaches. 

In the future, if he needs another set of eyes to check him out, Como or someone else is just a phone call away, or a loud shout at a tourney driving range. 

Now I was just thinking. Will there be a "Woody's Scool of Golf" some day?

At about 3:45pm today, eastern time.

Oh, wait, 3:32pm eastern. If you hover over the time it tells you.

Chris is going to be the first guest on the podcast I'm starting with Paul. He's a good friend, and now I will have more time to talk with him! :-)

Weird too because Tigs didn't consult with me first...we usually talk about stuff like this and decide things together...

I guess it makes sense he's doing it now if he's completed his Jedi training. It's the holidays the kids are doing their thing and you have some spare moments, let's throw out a press release. It's also Friday - Friday night news dump - no one is paying attention, less response to deal with.

Knowing Tiger though, he'll have a new coach in a few weeks or something.

I would guess no. With his health issues, he hasn't really had a chance to play for a while with Como as his instructor. Why go to someone else? Sounds like he's just gonna go it alone.

He could be, but much like Jerry Maguire, Tiger "can't be alone" IMO haha. He's just always had an instructor.

I guess it's possible he's just a man with his Trackman at this point, but it wouldn't surprise me if hired someone soon.

I don't worry about Tiger's knowledge about the swing and his body, but it would be a bit strange if he went at it alone again. How long did he go without a coach last time and how did that period go? I'm sure he's got a circle of people that will help him if needed, so maybe he doesn't feel like he need it. Or he will announce a new coach before not too long.

Even if you are very good at the theoretical stuff, doesn't it help having others look at you with a different pair of eyes? If nothing else, just having a second opinion can be positive, even if you agree. Especially since he's just played one tournament since his recent absence. He said himself he's got stuff to work on and that it will take time. 

I'd put my guess on him finding a new coach before too long.

I look forward to the podcast with Chris. :-)

I haven't talked to Chris yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't plan for this, and I think Tiger might go it alone for awhile.

I know a little more than I am comfortable sharing, but it's a little outdated because it dates back at least a year or so when Tiger was playing more. I could be wrong either way, but if forced to bet… I think right now Tiger has no plans to work hard core with someone else.

While they're officially split, I'm sure that doesn't mean Woods won't text him a little question here or there? Or vice-versa.

    • Just started Black Doves (on Netflix). Sadly I am watching at my parent's place and I do not have Netflix at home. This may make me get a monthly subscription. This is really good. 
    • 12/24/2024 So Christmas Eve we hosted the family. But I still found some time before and some time after to get some solid mirror work in. Yay!
    • Day 85 - 2024-12-24 Practiced for 90 minutes (which probably means I hit about 60 golf balls). No launch monitor, but plenty of aids and feedback.
    • So got fitted in a 35" Odyssey Microhinge Double wide 'blade' yesterday at GG. Choice was between it, SQ to SQ, LAB DF3, Rose Axis and Mizuno Craft  (also a double wide). Apparently I'm pretty good a aiming right of the hole consistently regardless of putter type. But it all came down to distance control and the insert feel. We hit puts in the putting area for the fitting but then ended up on the aisle carpet to hit long 40ish feet putts. Which is where the Microhinge did the best for my stroke. The Mizuno was a close second. The DF3 and Axis weren't bad either but I just felt really confident over the Microhinge and slightly soft but firm contact resonated so well. FWIW, I wanted to like the lie-angle balanced putters more than I did and was prepared to spend a bit. I guess putting is the individualistic aspect of our game. Hopefully, I didn't leave anything on the table. Anyone who knows my putting knows I need all the help I can get.
