Tiger Woods (Offical Thread)

Reportedly in a serious car crash this morning. Jaws of life used, rumors of broken legs and I hope that’s the extent of it.



Just days after going on air looking like this. Red eyes, chubby face- he looked rough but it could always be “I had the kids this weekend” look too.

Looks like an early morning crash in the corporate car from his hosted Genesis Invitational too. Not exactly in to posting the crash pics yet but they’re out there.

Just sayin': If that is true his participation as an active player on the PGA tour is undoubtedly over.....:sad:...:sad2:...:sad:

Tiger Woods has provided answers his entire career; after his car crash, it's time to change the question

Woods went out in style at the 2019 Masters, and it's time to reconsider our expectations

Questions about Tiger Woods, for the last decade-plus anyway, have always revolved around whether he's reached the end of the road. They were asked as far back as 2008 when he won the U.S. Open at Torrey Pines on a fractured left leg, and they have continued for the last 13 years at every turn of his life. On Tuesday, they were asked for a massively different reason.

Woods rolled his SUV at the intersection of Hawthorne Boulevard and Blackhorse Road just south of downtown Los Angeles, and for a few hours, the golf world was chaotic. When fracturing both of your legs and shattering an ankle is the best of all the conceivable outcomes, that tells you everything you need to know about Tiger's most recent car incident in a career now marked by three of them.

On Sunday, Woods was interviewed by Jim Nantz on CBS during the final round of the 2021 Genesis Invitational, which he was in town to host on behalf of his foundation. Woods talked his way through the interview and said little that was meaningful until the end when he told Nantz that he doesn't have much "wiggle room" left as it relates to his back and playing professional golf.

Woods' crash almost certainly erases any of the wiggle room that still existed in the battered body that housed the best to ever play the game. Woods has undergone five back surgeries and more leg operations than anyone has cared to document on a Wikipedia page. The birth certificate might say 1975, but Tiger's body is not 45-years-old.

Because of the myriad operations, false starts and long layoffs, the two questions that dance in union with one another when it comes to Woods are relatively obvious.

Is he back?

Is he done?

Just 48 hours later, golf is the furthest thing from our minds. We're just glad he's alive.

Well, it seems that Tiger has been written off several times, and this adds to that story. Whether he comes back or not is questionable. Have read that Tiger is no longer 'as feared' on tour as he used to be. On the other hand, attendance at any tournament skyrockets when he plays, so there is that.

After nearly losing his leg and 17 months without a tournament, making the cut has already exceeded reasonable expectations. Probably not his own, though.

Three days ago he said:

And if I feel like I can still win, I'm going to play.” “I don't show up to an event unless I think I can win it. So that's the attitude I've had,” he said. “There will be a day when it won't happen, and I'll know when that is.”

I was thinking at the time, if he just makes the cut and finishes all four rounds he's a winner.

Well, he made the cut.
