"generally considered one of the greatest golfers."

I don't agree with that wording. He is more than generally considered one of the greatest. There's no question as to him being one of the greatest. The only argument is if he's the greatest.

I'm with you on that. The wording was even worse before. "Considered by some" one of the greatest, which implies a large part of the population doesn't even agree with a pretty uncontroversial idea that he's one of the greatest.

I think he just likes his pants like that. Pretty sure Tiger wearing dad jeans was something people talked about.

Levi’s 505 jeans are perfectly acceptable IMHO! 😜 I have two pair.

Well, he is a dad, so I guess he's allowed to.

I think Woods goes from 20 to 25th on Fedex cup points list.

Correct.  There's no danger of him not qualifying for the next two events, but he'll have to play better to stay in the top 30 for the Tour Championship.


Tiger Woods had a rough patch but seems to be back. How was he able to put food on the table during the time his golf game was struggling due to injury and his endorsements weren't flooding in like before?

Welcome to The Sand Trap. Is this a serious question or are you being a bit sarcastic? He was still sponsored by Nike and had made the most money of any sportsperson ever at one point.

I think that must be only for seasons where he played a full schedule of at least 60 rounds.  He had some truly dismal years between 2010 and now, e.g. 2014 where his SGA was actually below zero.

Consider that a little over 1 year ago he was on a medical restriction, everyone would love to have his recovery.

I dunno how equipment endorsements work, if Woods is representing TaylorMade, I guess he still has the option to use whatever putter he wants, but his irons and woods have to have TaylorMade stamped on them?

I'm fairly certain he is still using a tour B golf ball as well. I think they just have to predominantly have the endorsed clubs in the bag. Besides Tiger can hit any driver in wrong fairway so it doesn't matter what he's gaming.... 😁

    • Tiger’s walking at the PNC and people say he’s not limping.  
    • I haven't heard much of anything about it. Faux leather, sure. Biodegradable leather? No. No idea. You're a bit too new, still, to post links.
    • Okay, I'm genuinely curious about this "biodegradable leather" trend in golf. Are we talking snake oil here? I mean, golf balls, clubs... they all end up in the water eventually. Is this just greenwashing, or is there actually a real environmental benefit? And honestly, does it even perform as well as traditional leather? I don't want to sacrifice distance for the planet, you know? Anyone with real-world experience with these eco-friendly golf goods? Spill the tea!
