Anyone think Tiger will make the weekend cut, or leave early with an injury?Unless he's done some serious work on his short game, no way he makes it to the weekend. The greens there allow for very little error. IF he has short game problems like he did in Scottsdale, I'm thinking the injury bug will strike mid-round Friday.Yeah, he kinda snuck into town... which he denied. Guess he didn't think everyone knew his plane. Kinda sad, the fall from grace he's gone through. Not to say some wasn't deserved, but everyone who has ever hated him now won't STFU. Not a huge fan of his, but those folks are fvckin annoying. I don't think "sad" enters the equation. He didn't develop a major drug habit. He didn't have a psychotic breakdown. He didn't get himself shot by gangstas. He had a meteoric rise, he made a gazillion dollars, he married a model, he cheated with a boatload of loose women, and then he got found out by the wife and an embarrassing drama followed. Meanwhile, his golf game went down the tubes.Was it the tomcatting that screwed up his golf game? Maybe. But that would be highly speculative. I think it's more likely he just never had 18 majors in him. That's not sad. That's just sports.Payne Stewart's story is sad. J Douglas Edgar. Steve Ballesteros, maybe. Even Ty Tryon. Tiger? He got the wins, he got the media, he got the money, he got the women...what's sad about that?What's sad, imo, is how his body is deteriorating and rapidly changing his game. Everyone is sports has their 'window of opportunity' or 'prime' and his is passing him by. There have been great players like Nicklaus who could still win in their later years. I just don't know if Tiger will stick it out that long. Like you said, he's pretty much set for life.I think it's all the weight he put on, in combination with that violent swing of his. I hope Rory doesn't go in the same direction, because he's started to bulk up a bit, too. Can't overdo stuff like that. Bulkiness does not lend itself to the golf swing.

When he began lifting and bulking up, that was pretty much the beginning of the end. Which is ironic, because he was always the smallish guy that could hit a ton. Don't know why he'd think adding muscle would improve his game. Musta been some vanity for himself and the ladies he was pulling.

Anyone else?No, but the shower drain is already clogged, so it should make for some interesting 'clean up'.
