TIGER SAID IT BEST AFTER THE ROUND

ITS HARD TO BEAT A GUY WHO HITS IT 300 YARDS STRAIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE EVERYTIME

ANY MADJACKERS EVER HIT A 4 IRON 248 YARDS :mj07:

I?ve never understood the Woods publicity/criticism. Be more interesting, appealing, intriguing, and show some personality and just maybe fans will tune in to see you.

I doubt Koepka entered the tournament to get more shine than X, Y, or Z. I think he plays to win, mission accomplished. But obviously the general public will over blow the Tiger affect. More people care about Tiger than the few who don?t. So of course he?s going to be in the headlines. Deal with it.

I?ll tune in when Tiger or another golfer I like is in contention. Not just because golf is on. And that?s who the networks care about. Sorry diehard Golf fans.

Great effort by Tiger. He couldn't put a drive in the fairway but still came in second.

I think it is all about personality. I am sorry but these golfers today are boring and interchangeable.

So you prefer a two timing drug user slamming his club into the ground when he makes a poor shot. I will give you this.. he is not boring. He was the second best golfer of all times. Like Barry Bonds of baseball, when drugs rule your life, you lose me.

In Tiger's defense, the fields are much deeper in his era.

Being a former cady, I could not disagree more. On any given week any golfer in the top 100 can win a tournament now a days. However, during Tiger's hey day there where a handful a great golfers or so but then there was a rather large drop off. However it is impossible to really compare different eras in any sport.

Yes. LOL! Koepka played great. Don't get me wrong. He deserved to win. But the charisma level on all these guys is zero. It's the way golf is presented. Too sterile.

Your response does not deserve my response but I will give it to you anyways A lot of work carrying two bags 18 and sometimes 36 holes a day in the 1970s. What the hell is so hard to believe that I did my thing when I was young. I guess you and some others here never had a life. To bad. I went for it. It didn't turn out the way I had hope but I am glad I went for my dreams and have no regrets. Just to add some salt to your wound I also bowl on the now defunct New England Semi Pro Bowling tour. You see I had a lot a athletic ability and it was a great life. NO REGRETS!
