You'd think that after going through the whole press conference to the world shit, that he'd have learned his lesson.  Wonder what his therapist in his sex addiction clinic would have to say about this whole episode.

Too much traction for a story in a bat boy spotted type tabloid. If it was anyone but Tiger the story would be ignored.

no, if LeBron cheated on the first wife, paid a king's ransom to his ex-wife, then pledged to the country that he made a mistake, only to show the same pattern again with another woman, sportsfans would be all over it....if Rickie Fowler did it, same, if Tom Brady did it, same......Tiger is on the world stage.....there are hundreds of sports stars who'd get this focus.

Tiger is a human being. He was raised a certain way to achieve greatness. Did he ever have a chance to be just a normal, rebelious kid? The way he is now is a product of his upbringing. Similar to maybe Michael Jackson although Tiger is not deviant like that. The guy needs to be left alone. Maybe he can't stay faithful to one woman due to a personality issue. But really, how much scrutiny can a guy take before something tragic happens?  Who doesn't have an issue or two in their lives?

I'm down to a 10 handicap. At this rate, I'll get to scratch at 90 years old!

, if Tom Brady did it, same......

Ha!  Why do you think he didn't want to turn over his text messages to the NFL?

Tom Brady likes the flat hookers.

Reported by the National Enquirer, yea, sorry not buying it.

But Agent K said it was "the best investigative reporting"! :-P

We'll see if Tiger sues for libel, eh?  I promise you it vetted this story carefully and had its lawyers review it before it went to print.

Actually you may find this hard to believe but most main stream papers, web sites and media, such as the big 4 ANC, NBC, CBS and Fox, by today's standard do very little in the way of reporting as a result of investigating. They are happy to report someone else's find and report their own opinion. rags such as National enquirer no longer report 2 headed aliens, but actually uncover many of the top stories, many that turn out to be factual. they have professionals digging and interviewing. TMZ is another one, they dig and investigate. Don't under estimate N.E. For as crazy as its cover to grab people's attention For it was they that uncovered and subsequently interviewed Lewingsky and her blue dress, Jonathan Edwards out of wed lock child, the anthrax attack, Micheal Jackson was gravely ill, 5 months later he was dead, Whitney Houston cocaine and alcohol binge, leading to her death a few days later and there is more. I too had the impression of what they were all about, until a college roommate that currently works for the NY times filled me in just how accurate and frequently they " get the story" or find the " smoking gun" thru investigative, feet in the street reporting. As he put it , most maine stream news you hear, the person that wrote it never left their desk and often pretty inaccurate of its initial findings. I have no idea if it's true, but I will give it some thought of what if is.....well it would certainly explain the suddenness of The dufners divorce as well as Woods/Vonn. Relationships usually do not end that quickly, divorces finalized that quickly, it always struck me as odd or there has to be more to that.Lindsey Vonn days ahead of the announcement didn't come across has things were not right, after the masters...she sounded very up beat and positive. And no I don't subscribe or have ever owned a copy of the NE, I don't watch TMZ and I don't get my news from the big 4, the golf channel or ESPN.

Pretty much what I was going to write but was too lazy.  I do recall seeing LV on Fallon or Kimmel and she did not seem at all happy just before the Masters.   The break up followed immediately thereafter. . .

    • Day 5: did a stack session. Did some slow swings between sets, working on hands down. 
    • So, I might have to get out of the C-Taper golf shaft. I have an older Mizuno with a KBS Tour shaft in. I was messing around with closing my eyes and feeling where the weight of the club is being felt at. The C-Taper was all in my fingers. I didn't feel much of anything of the club head or shaft of the club. It felt super heavy in my hands. The KBS Tour I could feel a weight further away from my hands, out in space.  The Mizuno weights 2 grams more, but is about 2-3 swing weights lighter than my current irons.  So, yea. I am thinking I might sense the club better with maybe a less stout golf shaft and maybe a lighter swing weight. Probably more to do with the golf shaft. I am thinking the feeling of the weight out in space is more of the shaft loading more easily. 
    • Day 25 (2 Apr 26) - Worked on green side chips at the course before helping with the school golf tournament today.  Worked on low flighted spinners to get solid hop and stops.  
    • Day 227 4-2 Chest and hip turn with flow drill. Trying to get a rhythm to the hip movement/less segmented feeling. 
    • A bit back at it tonight. I just wanted to add in the feel of a softer left arm through out the backswing. This helps me hinge the club. I make sure I am not bending it a ton, but not straightening it. It helps feel like I can keep the club in front of me more and lift the club up sooner.
