He's 35 years old. Hardly the end of a golfer's career. Jack Nicklaus won his last major when he was 46, and won 6 majors after he turned 35. Tiger is actually one of the few golfers who actually has a pretty rigorous workout routine, so I would expect his body to hold up better than most as well. Regardless, one of Tiger's biggest strengths has always been his mental edge. With all that's gone on in his life over the past couple years, it's to be expected that he wouldn't bounce right back. He showed this weekend that he is still capable of being one of the best, if not the best golfer of all time.
The rest of the field was just as good back when Tiger was so consistently dominant as it is now. Jack Nicklaus has gone 3 years between majors multiple times, and even went 6 years in between them once. All the people crying that Tiger is done just because he hasn't completely dominated everything after the rollercoaster he's been on over the past couple years are misguided. He's gone 3 years without winning a major before. He's going to pass Nicklaus, it's more of a question of when. I wouldn't be surprised if he does it before he's 40. |
Tiger's body is by far not holding up....the entire reason for the swing change is because of his knee. He can't power through the way he use to and his new swing is meant to take away some of the pressure on the knee.
The field is much better now then it ever was when tiger was in his hay day. Tiger isn't done but he is no longer on the upswing of his career. No body fears tiger anymore and with good reason not to.
