Jack's Record Is Safe

Koepka is killing it. Lots of good players did nothing this week. I wouldn't put too much into this missed cut by Tiger at the PGA.


I think they made a good move playing this tournament in May.

Two poor Major showings in a row now. The clock is ticking.

I agree...he's never going to be the Tiger of old but I think he'll be competitive in the masters for years to come if he stays healthy.

The question is going to be if he is able to pick up one of the other majors moving forward. With his inability to play a consistent schedule leading up to these major's he's going to always be a little rusty going into them.

The weather conditions at Portrush did not help him at all.

Not being able to play a full schedule is a big problem. If he plays too much he risks fatigue or injury not enough and he is not tournament ready. While his game suits Augusta there are a lot of guys who seem to play well all the time there too.

Looks as good as anyone at the Zozo but is as good as anyone enough to win 3-4 more major championships?

Well, I could not have been more wrong about Tiger's ability to come back and compete with the best players in the world again. I continue to be amazed that he's come all the way back. While I was never a Tiger fan, I admit that this second act of his career is much easier to root for than his robo-winner days of total dominance. Having been chastened a bit by life, he is much more relatable and seems more appreciative of his wins.

While I never doubted the talent was still there, I thought his health would never hold up. I mean, the guy could barely even walk 2 years ago, and every time he tried to come back, something else would go wrong with his body. It's just nice to see that he's able to play pain-free again. Watching him struggle through rounds during his many aborted 'comebacks' was just agonizing to watch.

At this point, how can he NOT pick himself to play on the President's Cup team?
