Tiger fades

Tiger Woods faded terribly today at Pebble Beach. I didn't cover the final round -- in fact, I watched it on TV at home. But this is what I saw. Woods can make the shots. Woods is a good player. Woods has lost his confidence. It is strange to write [...]

Tiger Woods’ first day at the AT&T

I trailed Tiger Woods for, get this, six hours around the course at Spyglass Hills in the first day of the AT&T Pro-Am on Thursday, trailed him with my friends Mark Purdy and Cam Inman. My dogs still hurt. I wrote about Woods' performance -- pretty good -- and what [...]

Is Tiger Woods Tiger Woods?

The Santa Rosa Press Democrat just posted my Thursday column about the former Tiger Woods who hopes to be the present and future Tiger Woods. He is playing at the AT&T Pro-Am National Golf Tournament (long name) starting Thursday and he's trying to salvage his standing and reputation in golf [...]

Tiger Woods assaulted by hotdog

I just read that a man ran onto the golf course during the Fry's Open and threw a hotdog at Tiger Woods. The way the articles have been written it's unclear if the man's main offense was running onto the course or throwing the hotdog. FYI, the man is from [...]

Woods and his former caddie

Here's what I don't understand. Some people are criticzing Tiger Woods because he may not have fired caddie Steve Williams in the right way. Some people wanted Woods to fire Williams face to face and Williams says it didn't go down that way. To which I say who cares? Woods [...]

Is Tiger Woods crooked?

I'm not saying Tiger Woods is a cheater, a law breaker and a phony when it comes to golf and drugs.  I have no knowledge he broke any laws. But I wonder about the guy, now more than ever. I woke up from an afternoon nap -- I sleep a [...]

Will Tiger Woods return?

For my Friday column I asked if Tiger Woods as we once knew him ever will return. You probably know by now he dropped out of the Players Championship this morning after playing a poor nine holes -- he went six over par. His left knee hurt, the one he's [...]

Tiger Woods spits

In case you don't know it, Tiger Woods got in trouble in Dubai. Sunday, he missed a putt on the 12th green and while he knelt there thinking whatever, he turned his head to the right and hawked a loogie. The TV announcer called the act "disgusting" and bemoaned the [...]

Tiger Woods no longer Tiger Woods

I don't believe Tiger Woods ever again will be the dominant golfer on the planet. He will be a good golfer and he may even win a few majors. But his days of being the true Tiger Woods are over. Other younger golfers will surpass him. I wrote my Friday [...]

The New Tiger Woods????

I am skeptical by nature. It has something to do with being a journalist. I spend my professional life around self-serving, egomaniac, BS artists and it makes me suspicious. Which brings me to Tiger Woods. He's on a campaign to show he's reformed and is a good guy as opposed [...]
