No, it's not. On TW, you're a hater beyond what's even rational.

Let me know when he plays, misses the cut and DOESN"T use injury as an excuse. I'm not a hater, just a realist. I don't know how anyone can say he will be healthy all season with his recent history without even seeing him play let alone predict multiple wins.

the odds are he is not going to go to well, good chance of getting hurt again and pretty slim chance he will win again.

But just imagine if the opposite is true and he plays anywhere near his best and wins on a sunday again.

it would be one of the greatest ever sporting comebacks, and we all know this guy is capable of doing the extraordinary:-):-)

I'm gonna watch every shot just in case!!

Good Interview going on live right now GC.  This "seems" different than previous returns.  Hopefully he actually feels as good as the interviews and hype is showing.  That would be fun.  Here's the details:

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Sounds like Tiger had a good pro=am.

It's funny, GC mentions the JT/Tiger pairing is one to watch.

Frankly, with the small lineup at this event, I don't really see a pairing that's not world class enough to be interesting on their own.  Pretty decent attendee list every year.

He’ll probably win 6 times this year, but only two of them will be majors.  He’ll come in fourth here though.

Hahahaha - I mean...perhaps. :-P

It's good to see Tig smiling again. 
His only comment I caught on the news  last night was "I'm loving life again"

Good for him, hope he plays well this week.  :beer:

Personally I hope he does well.  But, given that he hasn't played competitively in a while, I think the odds are against him, and this would apply to ANYONE in a similar situation.  My hope is that he is able to play without injury going forward and that he sticks with it because there's going to be a lot of second guessing why he's not winning every week and is he washed up.  If he sticks with it, I don't think he'll continue to dominate the way he used to, but my bet is he'll get back to being competitive again.

Is it only me that not feeling exciting see TW swing anymore? 

Of course I would love to see him play well and be back on top, that would make a great story but this time I am not having much expectations for him right now. It feels just like watching Lonzo Ball launching a 3 now if you know what I means.

I took off a couple decades from golf.  Just figured out it was pretty much exactly the Tiger era that I missed.  So I've yet to really see him play great.  So it would be fun for me to see it, even if it's just for a short while again.
