Never seen him hit left handed out of the air. When and where was this?

Agreed. It was well written with some new anecdotes, but the overall themes surrounding Tiger Woods remain unchanged by the article.  The major point I disagree with is definitively declaring tha

I guess I'm going to go negative, but I don't think that Tiger will return to prominence on the PGA Tour.  Just to much competition in the current atmosphere to take this much of a layoff.

Not sure if anyone had posted this, but I thought it was fun to watch. It's not really an hour and 23 it's 26 minutes that is looped 3x apparently.

I think too many people get paid to write about other things happening.  Some of the author's "facts" are just the fact that someone else expressed an opinion.  Not exactly damning evidence.

I think Tiger wants to play again because he probably doesn't know what to do with himself otherwise.  At the same time, he probably knows that he's not going to be the same, dominant player and has trouble accepting that.

I think the idea of 39-40 year old golfer hanging it up for good is pretty ridiculous. 

We're going to see Tiger return to competitive golf at some point. The press is blowing up those wedge shots at congressional into some kind of Freudian premintion.

Tiger will definitely play again for the simple reason he does not want to go out the way he is going out. I think he realizes the major record has probably slipped away, but I think he would still like to break Snead's record. It would be a bit of a disappointment if he doesn't get that record. But I'm sure he wants to end his career on a positive note. If he never swings again, I'm not sure I would call that going out on a positive note.

If a Tiger withdraws from the U.S. Open, and no one on the Sand Trap makes a post about it for several hours, has he really withdrawn at all?

I just think it goes back the point I made a couple months ago that the game has moved on from him. Wasn't even one of the top stories on ESPN. Yes he still brings in big ratings....I get it....but people don't expect him to contend anymore. If he plays, he plays. If he doesn't, oh well. Not like he was gonna contend anyways.

If he was playing ESPN would have blown up like crazy. So no, we haven't moved on from him. He still moves the needle. He will again when he returns.

      I enjoyed the distance wedges episode. It's something that I've not really taken the time to figure out for sure, but I went to a local trackman place over the winter and tested my four wedges (PW, AW, 54, 58) and got four yardages with each one. I am using Dan Grieve's method - you have a 1, 2, 3, and "full". The number references the number of clubhead widths between your heels.  I never really got to grips with the clock method - I'd find my 9:00 one day would go 40 yards and the next day 60 yards purely based on how fast I happened to swing it, but I couldn't turn that off and I was basically at sea with the speed method (Wesley Bryan does this - he takes almost a full swing for a 15 yard chip). The Grieve method I set my stance width and that really limits how much my swing moves back and forth and the speed seems to be naturally more consistent.  Anyway, I wound up with four yardages for each club - PW 48, 80, 112, 127; AW 41, 73, 101, 112; 54 36, 57, 91, 98; 58 28, 47, 81, 86 So, in order, I have 28, 36, 41, 47, 48, 57, 73, 80, 81, 86, 91, 98, 101, 112, 112, 127 which gives me a pretty good set of numbers. I do have a big gap from 57 to 73, but I can do a 2.5 58, which is giving me about 64. Then as they noted you can give it a bit more, or grip down on a club too to adjust a little bit. It's really useful and very freeing to just know what to do. When you have a 54 yard pitch, rather than pulling my 58 and thinking how hard is 54, I can just take my 54, do a "2" swing and just grip down a little and I'm in decent shape.  Incidentally, Erik talked a bit about watching Scheffler picking off his yardages to within a yard. I've watched DJ do that too with his wedges. Scottie does it trying to hit it all the way up to like 200 exactly with a 6-iron and he's hitting it 200.5, 199.7, etc. Absolutely mind blowing how good his distance control is. Insane.
