Finished.
Only a matter of time. Before he was injured his driving was all over the place.
Cost him a wedge to get out on bail.
I wont be chipping in
Woods is done, he is better closing the circus that has become his career, time to retire i think
Will he sign on the brew?
Saw his mugshot on Sky and he looked rough. No car to get home so a fairway to walk.
He will be clamped in irons.
Silly question but can he drive a golf buggyQuote:

He was genuinely THE golf idol of my generation and could easily have surpassed Jack had he not come completely undone.
I find the entire thing horrifically sad for a number of reasons: 1) because his behaviour could have killed someone quite easily, 2) because it's quite clear he's finished as a professional golfer and 3) because all of those people who genuinely looked up to him and wanted him to succeed in every comeback are now rapidly realising just how great his demons are.
Just seen his arrest on SSN, and he's certainly confused to say the least. Apparently his alcohol blood count was zero, so it seems he's taken something whether its prescription drugs or worse. :confused:
Either way he shouldnt have been driving.
True but if you've already been affected by the medication then that judgement isn't there surely?Quote:

Driving under the influence of drink or drugs is just crazy behaviour. He's had some fall from grace, pretty sad really.
Agreed. But if you've no idea what you're doing due to a reaction to prescribed drugs? Not sure if you can be responsible or not?Quote:

I doubt we'll see him back on the golf course again, but I would be delighted if we did.
He's made some silly decisions down the years but it's horrible seeing someone so brilliant go downhill like this. Love sitting watching clips of some of his shots/wins over the years. Only wish I could remember him at his prime, my first real memories are when I saw him in 2007 at Carnoustie.
Back in the saddle this week after fusion surgery has given him his life back. What’s the thoughts then? I still reckon he hasn’t got it between the ears anymore and we will only see him fleetingly.
Tiger's no chance in the Heroes. I was second again after Aphibarnrat well joint second with Suri at the weekend there with Ormsby the winner who no-one would have a penny on :confused:. There's some very interesting tournaments this week, Haydon Porteous could go well at the Afr/Asia and I fancy Fowler to take the Heroes and Marcus Fraser/Ryan Fox to have a chance in the Australian PGA. It'd be great to see Tiger return to something resembling his past form but just cannot see it.Quote:

He's played a lot better than I thought he would getting back into the saddle after such a long period out which is great to see. Can't believe Charley Hoffman is overnight leader tonight with the players that are involved. Don't think he'll win but its just bizarre. Good to see Tiger (Get in the hole) back and playing well again.Quote:
