Tiger Woods will miss the remainder of the year due to reconstructive knee surgery.
that sucks… i was looking forward to seeing him play at Congressional.
They annonced it on the golf channel as well. He must have really frigged it up bad or he came back too soon.
I had heard it was against his doctors orders that he played in the Open…I dont know if that was at the start of the tournament or after he tweaked it in the final round.
Shitty :tdown:
Towards the later holes you could really see in his swing / walk that the knee was really starting to bother him.
makes the open victory even more impressive…
i dont mean to gush, but he is just an incredible competitor. when all is said and done, he will go down as the most dominant athlete in sports history.
edit: what everyone else said
I wonder how he’ll be able to pay his bills by sitting out the rest of the season. Poor guy.
He will prob still win the fed ex cup with the amount of points he has right now.
He is the man
lol
funny but doubtful…i don’t think mickelson is that far behind…
Bad ACL and 2 stress fractures…guy is a warrior
:tup: now i can get a break from >50% of coverage on a tournament with 150 people being about one douchebag. Maybe I can actually stand to watch golf again.
What>! I would rather watch tiger play than 90% of the crowd. The man makes his own ratings.
ok maybe a little jim furyk he has a sweet swing - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMPaZ3WaGGI
for reference
i get tired of seeing every fucking shot he takes and 20 minutes of analysis afterward jammed down my throat, no matter where he is in the field. Every time someone else wins, everyone acts like its only because Tiger let him. Not to mention the amount of sackriding on ESPN and the like. When he was way out of contention at a couple of the majors last year, he still got at least as much coverage as the leaders. I’m a Phil fan, he finished 18th this year thanks to that one hole on Saturday, and I don’t recall seeing a single shot of his on Sunday. Now I can spend the rest of the year not having to root for “Not Tiger” if Phil is out of contention 
ummm… thats pretty much the case… I don’t see how its such a difficult thing to comprehend. Tiger changed golf, tiger is golf, tiger will be the great one. Put him on TV.
Joe do you even golf or do you just pretend like you watch golf when you don’t have a fucking clue what the ball is doing
Or 73% of the time he gets outplayed and someone else deserves it more?
Just played 18 holes today up at Beechwood CC up in Canada, thank you very much. Oh, and you used the same line about hockey earlier this year. Buy a new one.
The fact is, from what everything I’ve seen of the guy, which is plenty thanks to the media, hes an amazing golfer, I think hes a major asshole. When he deserves it, fine, show him on TV, but the rest of the time, if hes out of it, give me a fucking break.
Not sure if you’re into football, but would you have liked to see nothing but Patriots games every single Sunday this past season, whether they were good, bad, or ugly, when there were other games being played? Pretty fucking annoying if you’re a Patriots hater. Same shit I go through every time I want to watch golf. He’ll still get more coverage than 90% of the field on crutches the rest of this year.
^Why is Tiger a major asshole?
Because he won 5 out of 7 tournaments he entered with a bad knee this year?:gotme:
He won more tourneys this year(injured) than 99% will win in a whole career.
Because everyone is a douchebag according to people on the internet :roll2:
