Ok ok.. we know he can get the ladies. But after all his affair drama went public it seems hes lost that winning touch.

Is he still the best golfer ever?

Think he will start winning again?

He slipped last season, no doubt about it, but he is back in the top 25(#18 this week) again and is playing much better as of late.

Yes to both questions.
 
I don't think Tiger will ever be back to where he was. He should stop and just teach or sell products or do something else. Although after his ex took all that money I see why he still needs to play. lol
 
I'll throw a bump in here.
Tiger isn't what he used to be, you game never gets any better after something like that.
I feel like he'll still be a contender and if he has a good day or such then he'll be able to come out ahead, but i don't think he should drop out completely. He hasn't hit Arnold Palmer notoriety...yet.
 
Yes, he could very well have a renaissance if gets his head in gear. The ingredients are all there, there's no fundamental reason he can't have a second era of greatness, as long as he's renounced his life of off-course excess.
 
He definitely has lost his shine.
But the problem is only in his head, all of his talent is still there.
He just needs to relax when playing golf and forget about all of his personal problems.
 
I think it's mostly due to public pressure. He's the most talented golfer, but because people keep bogging him negatively because of his infidelity and womanizing, I think it affects his game. I hope it all goes away so he can get back to golfing :)
 
I do not think he will ever regain the status and level of greatness he once had. Other golfers no longer fear Woods, he has lost his mystique. He might win another major and be competitive in tournaments but he will never dominate like he did 10 years ago, he is a different man with a different swing.
 
I also think he probably won't be at the level he used to be at, although I do think a large part of the reason he's not do as well as he could be is the public pressure. I mean he really lost the image he had and he's viewed as a completely different person, and in a sport like golf it can make a big difference.
 
I actually think he will return to near his former glory once more, in my opinion it is actually helping him that he's out of the main golfing media attention and that new young talents from the UK are doing so well. It takes the pressure off Tiger to mentally prepare before games and allow himself to improve again. But not only has he lost form but those around him have actually improved since his lapse, it'll be hard but he'll be near the top of the rankings once more, his golfing legacy is still set in stone.
 
Tiger just needs to win one or two tournaments to get his confidence and killer mentality back. Then he will be back on the track to break the majors record.
 
I think he will come back. His game hasn't really dipped that much and once he wins a couple more titles he will back on top.
 
I don't think he can ever get back to where he was. I'm pretty sure most people lost respect for him, and he knows it. I don't know if that's why he isn't playing as great, but I would think it has something to do with it.
 
I believe he can come back, and be on top once again.
He has took quite a big knock mostly it confidence and lost his mystique.
 
He's still good, but his competition has gotten much much better as well. Also, he's lost that edge he had over everyone else after he was proven to be human. Much like the patriots lost their dynasty title after the giants beat them, people have seen Tiger lose and know he's not a god
 
The moment his cheating ways went public it all went south for him. The weight of the public scrutiny is too much for him to handle and it's showing in his game.

Personally, he should have known better than to get hooked up with that wife of his in the first place. If you guys read the news, you know why I say that
 
Personally, I think he is done.

Watching him play I can see that he has lost his edge as well as his desire to win the game. He just doesn't seem to have the heart anymore.

I can't say I blame the guy after all that has happened.
