Tiger Woods (3 Viewers)

"He's just made the worsr effort you could possibly do.

He's fatted it. Duffed it."

More trouble for Tiger on 12. 94/96

AND THEY CONTINUE TO COVER EVERY ####### SHOT OF THIS CLOWN.
Yeah those dopes keep televising things nobody cares about.Well, except, here you have been since 5am live blogging every single shot all by yourself.
Only to emphasize the stupidity of covering a clown who is almost last in the Open. Ri-DONK-ulous.
Well, that's not true. You've been foaming at the mouth since his first hole. But yeah, you don't care.
I wouldn't care if they didn't cover his every shot on his way to 108th of 111th. But keep waving the flag! Keep hoping!

 
i do not know how a guy who is basically live updating us on everything he eats can get on a guy for live updating us about tiger woods but anyhow i am glad for chets posts they make me laugh because anyone who would run around on elin nordagren can get all the scorn in the world and then some brohans take that to the bank

 
CBS Sportsline coverage: 'Tiger can't get anything going'.

Should read 'Tiger on pace to finish right where his skill level would indicate.'

So I guess that makes you 171/171.
hey toby why the man crush on tiger brohan he is sort of a crum bum and not the sort of guy i thought you be behind fill us in bromigo
I think people who obsessively hate athletes who haven't killed or beaten or raped anyone are pretty silly so I enjoy tweaking them, bromigo. I do the same thing with LeBron haters in the NBA thread. Neither guy is a favorite of mine.

Highlights from his post round interview:

Worst round as a pro at St. Andrews.

10/18 GIRs -- worst of any player completing 18 holes. OOOOF

 
Anybody got the stats of Tiger's major tournament rounds since his last major win?

I wonder how many were under par during this run?

I know he's bogeyed the first hole in 10 of the last 12 rounds.
I know Azinger commented that Tiger was a +21 in his last 45 holes.
Azinger calls Tiger a hack

“Everyone wanted to swing like Tiger. Except Tiger.”
Zinger is right. He is a hack and it's a abysmal that he gets the coverage he does when he's 144/154. Give him coverage when he's in contention.

Still whining about Tiger coverage in 2015? Good lord.
How about covering the leaders? It's laughable. Absurd.
Maybe you should tell them that Chet from the internet will stop watching if they don't stop covering Tiger.I'm sure that will get instant results.
Have you seen where "Chet from the Internet" sits at major sporting events? I would not trifle with him.

People like you are the main reason he currently gets the attention. In case you didnt know. Good work.

Uh, no.

It's guys like Otis who won't admit that Tiger is a hack and want to see every shot the clown makes. Give him airtime when he's in contention but show some respect for him and the game when he's hitting it like a 10.

Chet is Marlins Man?
 
I love seeing him hack it up.

I'd still be watching the Open even if Tiger were not playing. Television ratings drive the networks player coverage and Tiger is still the biggest name in golf despite his atrocious play the last few years.

Throw in the predictable poor body language at the first hint of adversity, his glute-grabbing when he starts missing GIRs, his shanking of chip shots, and his power fade off the tee and he is absolutely hard to root for.

I feel the same way about Andy Murray... both of their whining/facial grimaces make them extremely unlikable for me.

I don't like it either, but it's never going to change. He has the best record of any active golfer by a wide margin and will be remembered as the best or second best player in history. The extra coverage is going to continue until he retires, regardless of how he performs.
Pretty much this.

plus the networks now anticipate only having Tiger around for the first two days instead of four so they want to maximize coverage on Thur/Fri.

Was trying to see if there was anything about Jack Nicklaus' career and TV coverage that might be instructive here.

Nicklaus won two majors in 1980, and then had a 2nd-place major finish in each of 1981, 1982, and 1983 -- with three more major top 10s scattered in their as well. He was just above average (18th-31th place) in all 1984 majors, and then finished 6th at the 1985 Masters. So ... when he won the Masters in 1986 -- which was kind of treated as some huge out of nowhere comeback -- Nicklaus had actually remained totally relevant at major tournaments between his 1980s major victories.

Between 1987 and 1998, Jack had three more Masters top 10s (his last one at age 58!), but was fading away in the other majors. His last major tournament in which he made the cur and finished all four rounds was in the 2000 Masters , at age 60.

Seems like it took a long while for Nicklaus to gradually fade off the golf scene. And his decline started at later age than Tiger's. Seems like what Tiger Woods is going through is close to unprecedented for a player of his caliber.

 
Who are the best golfers in Tiger's "generation"? Does Mickelson count? I don't know that the last 25 years of a golfer's career are entirely irrelevant to evaluating the greatest of a generation (or of his time).
