Because he swung the club harder than anybody in his youth which allowed him to crush and devastate golf courses like MJ did on the basketball court, or a better comparison, the Williams Sister dominating the tennis courts. This can explain his physical deterioration to some extent, but athletes come back from injuries all the time. The mental aspect is a) more of an impact on the player and b) harder to explain because nobody except Tiger really knows. But ESPN put out this pretty compelling article a few years back explaining how Tiger started to slip after his Father's death. Good read.

His early swing was already pretty violent so when he fukked his knee up doing that Navy Seal training everyone was advising him against doing he had to keep adjusting his swing to take pressure off both his back and knee. It was only a matter of time until everything broke down after that.

I was waiting for someone to link that. It puts together a LOT of shyt - both the mental and the physical.

Man, I really wanted him to be the all-time all-everything GOAT....and I still think he's the greatest golfer ever...but he's not going to get the records and brought about his own downfall.

People talking about his swing and shyt...he was going to have the wins record AND the majors record before he broke down if that other shyt with his dad and the SEAL training and all that hadn't happened first.

Dude has a bad back and bad knees, theres no way he'll be able to play like his old self, he can barely get through a Master's course.

Y'all don't think Tiger BEEN back to fukking these hoes? :aicmon:

His body is shot. And the real problem is people just won't let it go. It's been YEARS since Tiger was "Tiger" people gotta let it go. It's like expecting Roy Jones to become the pound for pound king again.

:laff: Duh nikka, I went comedian to get some daps. He's hurt, been overdoing it in training for years.
