He's never been the same since his wife took a 5 iron to him and the shit storm that followed - and he's not changed a bit since then, Lindsey Vonn dumped him when she found out he's still cheating, tigers don't change their stripes. He loves low class dirty sluts. His upbringing was fucked up, his father was also a cheater and filled his head with a lot of shit a kid's head shouldn't be filled with, even a child prodigy.
I thought he'd get it back together but I really doubt it now. Golf more and more is becoming a young man's game, look at the age of the guys winning majors now. Tiger is turning 40, he's had a lot of injuries. I also think Tiger put on too much muscle, he hit the ball a mile when he was a lean young machine. Golf is the most mental of games, it was his biggest edge over other golfers and now his mind is a mess.
Pussy has brought down many great men. As far as being the 'Gretzky of golf', he already was that and always will be, he doesn't need to win another major to go down in history as the greatest golfer ever, he was that for over a decade.
I think back to when Tiger was at his peak and everybody said he'd destroy Jack Nicklaus' record for majors won. It seemed impossible for him not to, short of illness, injury or death.
And when Nicklaus was asked about all that he cautioned that golf becomes much harder as outside influences impose on an athlete, getting married, having children, managing your business empire - at the time Tiger was still a single guy. People dismissed Nicklaus' words as small and tinged with jealousy and bitterness. They may have been but he was also right, when Tiger's personal life imploded, so did his golf game.
He's not a very likeable guy but I'd love to see him get his shit together and come back and win majors again. I really don't think it will happen now.
