Thank you, britlady!!  I enjoy your posts as well.  Some posters are not more than "razzle dazzle" so it's always refreshing to join in a good discussion with someone who sees the larger picture.  It's not about Tiger not winning.....it's about what Tiger learned about the state of his game and where he takes that knowledge going forward.  I so admire his "true grit" spirit!! 

There are so many talented players on tour today.  Many looked up to Tiger as they began to learn the game.  Now they are competing along side him.  Exciting!!  However, many of these younger players don't have the dedication and drive he has.  It is difficult to win a golf tournament, even more difficult to win a major. 

Tiger is progressing......those major victories will start hapening soon :-)))

 

 

It's not what you accomplish that counts, it's what you overcome. Tiger will continue his pursuits, and so most of his fans will continue to support him. I know for sure that I will start over again at his next tournament. Quitters never win, and winners never quit.

This was a very powerful post. Thanks. And just think, the battles Tiger wages are always in front of a GIANT crowd of people. How many of us would be at our very best performing anything if we had thousands of eyes watching our every move. Never was this point driven more home to me than when I was watching the videos TigerSlam sent from the Memorial. I cannot imagine concentrating on a shot with that many eyes trained on my every move. TERRIFYING.

Thank you for letting me know you enjoyed my post.  I agree with you, I could not imagine performing at that level before crowds that huge.  Tiger has done it almost from the beginning of his career,  and has been known for his phenominal focusing ability, few people have that great talent!   Of course, he is only human after all and other serious concerns may creep in from time to time to cause that focus to falter.  He carries a heavy load, most people would have crumbled under it, but he soldiers on!  Tiger  is a warrior and I feel privileged to be able to watch him perform, win or lose. 

Here, here!!! Another great post. Tiger is a WARRIOR and he will champion on and fight the good fight!!!! I am proud to be his fan!
