Everybody talking about Kobe retiring, what about Tiger Woods?!

[MenacingMonk]

Dude hasn't been shyt since before the incident.

Going on, what, 5 years of play?


and golf anyway.

 

[FAH1223]

Tiger isn't old for a golfer though. He just can't win majors.

He actually has the most wins on the PGA Tour in the last few years.

 

[Scientific Playa]

they prolly both want to but the advertisers, league, and pga want to squeeze every drop of revenue out of them before letting them retire.

(Jay Z) Hard knock life

 

[Wargames]

I mean I thought the point was to retire and play golf

 

[prophecypro]

I think Woods is really done now.

He had a bit of a returned spark in 2012 with some tournament wins but yeah now he's missing cuts regularly it seems and as others said, he cant get that next major.

I'm stunned he's gonna close out and not beat Jack's record. I was certain 10 years ago he had it in the bag

 

[OGmittee]

yeah tiger has been a let down. so many people were rooting against him, i was hoping he'd get back on his game and win a few more majors but its looking like hes done unfortunately

 

[Ron Mexico]

Tiger won't retire anytime soon because he's still the biggest name in golf and no matter how much he sucks it doesn't affect a team like Kobe does.

debatable

if you mean most recognizable to people who dont watch golf then yeah. but people who watch/internationally might say a guy like Rory Mclroy, Phil, Bubba Watson. Golf actually has some pretty good depth right now

 

[Pdiddy]

Back when I was in Jr. high...Tiger was the man!

 

[Guess Who]

Shoulda had an extra phone for the bytches...the nikka mental never been the same since Elin left. And golf is ALL mental at that level.

Even for true golf fans the popularity of those guys doesn't match Tiger.

He's still going to be viewed as one of the GOATs if he never wins another major.

Yep....golf is played for 4.5 hours yet you spend a total of 3 minutes swinging. If your mind isnt right...you lose

Idk he took a hit in popularity among golf fans with the Elin thing. Hes still popular but people know the deal. If im checking the leaderboard on Sunday im not looking for tigers name. Id be surprised to see him, i only hear about his struggles it seems like. No doubt hes the one of the GOATs if not the GOAT, which will always have him playing with a strong gallery following him just to say they watched tiger play a round

 

[Llcoolbay]

He actually hasnt been bad as people make it out in the past 5 years. Since his Back injury yea he's been bad but he won PGA player of the year in 2013 and was ranked #1 for some time. He just hasnt won any majors.

But yea since the Back, he is looking washed

 

[...o3]

...why not both just retire?
