I can't stand any of the sorority lot
Actually when Spieth has a mare he's fun to watch bitching to the caddy
Agree, it's why Woods coming back is great for the sport. The players themselves have all said as much.

Rory is coming back from injury himself and speith is out of form like I said. These two players will wipe the floor with tiger when fit and in form. Don't get me wrong not 15 year ago but next year tiger will lose to all these players. Imo of course which means diddly squat. I will bookmark this post though.Disagree with your assessment there, every one of the "top" players you've mentioned was involved in the Valspar (hardly an average tournament), in particular Speith and Mcilroy missed the cut.
Woods has demonstrated a massive improvement in the short time since he's returned, I wouldn't be surprised if he's back in the top 10 by the end of the year.

Great post and good points. I just think there will always be someone like at the weekend to stop him week in week out. He will pick he's tournaments and I may have to eat my words. Only time will tell.Why? Tiger hits it further than Speith and he's not miles behind Rory. Tiger's short game is better than McIlroy's, and the less said about the latter's putting, the better. McIlroy hasn't been "in form" for a few years now and his putting has been verging on yips territory. I'd say only Dustin Johnson can rightly say he could wipe the floor with all opposition when fit.
On the basis of what we have seen this weekend, there is no obvious* reason for Tiger to not be able to compete with the best. The biggest concern was over his back mobility and how much it would reduce his distance. He answered that over the weekend. He won't be as far as McIlroy, Bubba and DJ over the season, but far enough to not be at a major disadvantage and further than a lot of the field.
If Mickelson is a serious contender at 47 years old, then I can't see how you can write off an apparently healed Tiger.
*I don't know whether his back condition will limit his practice time over the season.

I know what you mean, but remember people were saying the same 12 months ago about Sergio Garcia. That his time was over and he'd blown it. Shit putter and a bottler. That younger, fit and in-form players like DJ, Spieth, McIlroy, Day, Scott etc would always be better than him when it came down to it. But then DJ fell down the stairs, and the others have all struggled to maintain form and there's Garcia finally getting his hands on a big one.
I'm not saying Tiger will win a big one again, but unless he is seriously limited in how much practice he can do, then I think we can say that he can win one. I think everyone is in agreement that this comeback is very different to all the others.
Tbf they not gonna say any different.Agree with all of this. Aside from the predictable media hysteria, the likes of Mcilroy have practiced / observed him close up and are saying he's the best he's looked for donkeys years.

Sledging in golf would liven it up.
Aye. He really broke ranks by naming and shaming the slow players who had accompanied him in the past couple of weeks.Lawrie has been giving it out on twitter lately about slow play. Calling them all out. Been funny as fuck.

I heard about that but on the basis that Pietersen is a bitter plum and much worse than that is mates with the utter cunt that is Piers Morgan then I would regard his opinion as worthless.Good. Kevin Pietersen (aye, the cricketer) absolutely roasted Kevin Na the other week.

Off to a flier again today
It will be great to see the "superstars" of today totally shit their pants if they are up against tiger at Augusta on late Saturday and Sunday. They've breezed along sharing it between themselves for 7 or 8 years without ever having to go head to head with the greatest golfer ever. Will be good to see who has it in them if it happens.
Looks like we gonna find out over the next few days mate. I must admit it's the most excited I've been about golf(tv wise) in a while. So some good is coming out of it.Disagree with your assessment there, every one of the "top" players you've mentioned was involved in the Valspar (hardly an average tournament), in particular Speith and Mcilroy missed the cut.
