Tiger was an amazing talent in his prime...I'm not into golf AT ALL, yet I tuned into the Masters, etc. and other events simply due to his stardom and the level he played at. He could hit 100 mph fastballs out of the stadium all day long, but never had to learn how to hit a curveball....well, guess what life throws at you eventually...curveballs. He's just not equipped personally imo, and his "coach" is gone. Even that aside however, he's not a young pup anymore, and the current crop of young golfers have caught up to the skill level he had years ago....a bunch of them I might add
. Tiger, even if he was in his prime today would not dominate the current crop imo. He deserves some credit for that....his greatness changed the sport.
