What is really wrong with Tiger Woods?

Not sure I agree with this. Mind strength is what separates professional athletes in all sports. Those with short memories, greater will, ability to overcome adversity, etc. I believe it's an innate ability. The world is littered with minor leaguers possessing tremendous physical skills. It's typically the mind that determines true greatness.

I was speaking more to what separates tour players from the average golfer (I said average guy in my previous post) or even from a low handicap golfer, it's not the mental game. Golfers place too much importance on mental game.

@mvmac So do you believe it's tempo? Should he invest in a Tour Tempo track?

Apparently nothing......this week.

Would've been interesting to see comparisons of other players' range vs course swings.

Not only does he try to murder the ball in round, he also appears to be steering it as well at times

Think he is sick of GOLF, the media, the fans, the life. Nothing more important than having a life you enjoy, around people you enjoy. He most likely enjoys his kids, then misses them and the closest person to him at that point is his manager. Who knows what his mom is up too. When or if he wins, who will be there to hug, kiss, congratulate ?

it is the life in a nut shell and he is bored with it, on top of that, he is now fully bald, almost 40... He looks back and wonders, how did I end up here with only a few friends, 2 kids, no wife and so much money, yet, I really do nothing except play golf, manage a huge house I don't need, etc... I just think he knows he made some big mistakes and can't take them back. People expect him to want to be "A GOLF GOD" forever and he may not care about it at all. How many people retire from golf ? If I were him, I would take a couple years off, find love again, don't touch a club and rest...

he doesn't owe anyone person a thing except himself and his kids. Finish out your contracts or redo them for a shorter period. Way too much going on, poor guy....

This is an odd post with how hard he's been working and how excited he was to play well last week.

I kind of thought the same thing.
