Many @ Club Tiger may not like Sir Nick Faldo's comments about Tiger's current golfing game.    Say what you like, Faldo does know the game of golf!!    Listen and don't be quick to attack Faldo.    I think Faldo is speaking from his own experience.  Faldo's confidence left him and along with his age, put Faldo into the tv booth.        lol

Does anyone know whether or not Faldo ever played on the Champions Tour?    Is Faldo 50 years old?      lol

Tiger has not lost his confidence.   He is still the old Tiger.  What he needs to do is go back to his old swing that worked.  If something works, do not fix it.    am your greatest fan.  85 years old and never miss a game.  Ignor the fans and when you  are up set it is ok in my book to use the naughty words.  Lets off steam..  I do and do not care what people think.  Am disabled, half blind and have diabetes.  Nothing stops me from watching you play golf.  You are a winner and all will prove it in the end.   You put life in the game.   Would love to see you play a game before I check out, but am on a fixed income and my dream will never happen.  Go Tiget GO.  you  are the best of the best.   amen.  

 

 

      Dear Bill:

 Okay Bill "the stat man", kindly explain to me in 30 words or less your reason for posting this review of the personal life of Sir Nick Faldo @ Club Tiger?  

 For, if you did the same to Tiger Woods, others would label you a Troll. 

Thanks for expressing my feelings. Waldo is just jealous of Tiger. He has been ever since 1997 when they played the first two rounds of the Masters together with Faldo as the defending champion. Waldo needs to retire!

 

 

   Bill:

Of course, you did exceed my requirements of a reply of 30 words or less.    I never thought you would because its human nature.     :(

Usually, I find your comments to be interesting or amusing, but here you come across as a Troll.    There is never any justification for belittling someone because they expressed a different opinion from you about Tiger Woods.   I did not read the article  dealing with Faldo's view on Tiger's lack of confidence because I am not concern about Faldo's view.  Come what may, win or lose, I shall be watching Tiger as he plays @ the 2012 Wells Fargo Championship May 3-6.  

When you found the information about Faldo's personal life you should have merely read it and moved onward to the next story.     lol

As Club Tiger's stat man kindly stick with statistics and leave the personal trash about the rich & famous to others like TMZ.     lol

Finally, I stand by my assertion that Sir Nick Faldo knows the game of golf.       :) 

 

I hate posts about personal life, even if it seems justified as a getback. We should stay away from those attacks.

So let's just discuss Nick's remarks.

1. He starts off saying this was how he interrupted Tiger's recent quote that he was taking time off away from golf and his clubs. To Nick this seemed to mean a lot of negative things about Tiger's mind and golf confidence. It's a little funny; but Tiger stated virtually the same thing after his Chevron victory: I'm taking time off to recharge because I've been working very hard at it.

2. Nick stated that Tiger's putting was off; yet I remember that being the only thing working and kept Tiger in the tournament. Tiger said that on Sunday.

3. He mentioned that it will be very difficult to get his confidence back. Well, there are several others of less skill, Lee Westwood comes to mind, that have done it. I have total confidence that Tiger can do it. I remember very well in 2006, Tiger looked totally lost in the US Open, missed the cut badly, then won the British Open.

4. Overall, I thought that Nick was professional in his analysis, no cheap shots, he kept to the golf swing.

Just my opinion; but Tiger has really developed a control game based on fade, low cuts, stinger, and controlled irons. At Bayhill, he really turned through the ball and got to his left side.  If he fears at all, his front leg, ankle, etc, then he will be tentative or he'll revert back to old methods that protect those parts.  If that happens, you'll hook like crazy or blocks shots to the right. I really hope that Tiger is not experiencing some concerns about recurring injuries here.

No real credibility about this on my part, just a fan's worry.

I just listened to what Faldo said and I think there is a lot of truth in his analysis
I suspect Tiger agrees that it is going to take some time for him to rebuild things
I think is a very honest man.
