…And there he goes again!
Ok, like everyone else who has discussed his imminent return via the Safeway Open, I was startled by the withdrawl from that and future events. Sounds like the Ryder Cup took valuable time away from his prep. Seems like the media got played by Tiger’s skill at saying nothing specific. I’m a fan, but tired of it. Maybe the media jumped the gun and made too much out of it. Maybe he’s doing a slow vanishing act from the game. If he thinks that he can play sporadically without anyone noticing, he doesn’t know his own impact. In this day and age, his every breath is reported by the TMZ media and he’ll never get the normal tour player treatment, he’s a huge celebrity. Arnie and Jack, Seve or Nick never had to deal with this media crush.
That said, Tiger has made an art form of talking like a politician. He can answer questions and never say anything, which is frustrating. Maybe that’s what he has been doing all along…playing the media dis-information game. Whatever it is, it works. No one knows what the hell is going on and far more people are feeling like I am…who cares?
