Wow.  Tiger Woods’ world is in a state of disaster to say the least.  Missed cut two weeks ago, WD from the Players Championship Sunday, talk of a bulging disc in his neck… Now Tiger’s coach for the last six years has bailed.  Hank Haney has resigned.

“I have informed Tiger Woods this evening that I will no longer be his coach.  I would like to thank Tiger for the opportunity that I have had to work with him over the past 6 plus years.  Tiger Woods has done the work to achieve a level of greatness that I believe the game of golf has never seen before and I will always appreciate the opportunity that I have had to contribute to his successes.  I have also enjoyed the association that I have had with Tiger both on and off the golf course as I have had some incredible experiences.  In coaching and teaching Tiger I have also learned a lot, not only about golf, but about people and life in general.  It has been a great learning experience and along the way Tiger has elevated me in my own profession to a level that I never thought I would achieve before I had the opportunity to work with him.

In many ways because of all the time I have spent with Tiger, I may have learned more from him than he has ever learned from me.  However, I believe at this time that it is in both of our best interests for me to step aside as Tiger’s coach.  I will always look back upon our past half dozen years together as my best days in professional golf.  It would be a dream of any coach to have a student like Tiger Woods and for me it has come true.  Just so there is no confusion I would like to make it clear that this is my decision.  I know Tiger Woods will be successful in the future no matter who helps him.  He is an incredible athlete with an incredible work ethic.  As we all know, Tiger has been through a lot in the past six months, and I really believe that given the chance, mind free and injury free, we will all see Tiger Woods play once again like we all know he can.

I wish Tiger well, not only with his golf, but in finding peace and happiness in all aspects of his life.  Tiger knows that if he ever needs me in any way, whether it be with his golf or just as a friend he can always call.  I will always, as I have been in the past, be there for him.  From a personal standpoint, I look forward to being able to make many more contributions to the great game of golf in the days and years ahead.”

I’d like to hear your comments on this.

Man, I decided to go golfing yesterday and DVR the TPC Sawgrass final round.  I should have known I shouldn’t have been there when they paired me up with a male and female who were not only both 30+ handicappers, they were both left handed.  Needless to say it was a long and frustrating day on the course.   Little did I know I’d miss a ton of fireworks from the TPC.  Tiger withdrew.  Lee Westwood gave away another tournament, and…

Hot blond announcer Win McMurry of Golf Channel had possibly one of, if not the best Freudian slips of all time when she was taking about Tiger Woods’ withdrawal from the Players Championship due to neck pain.

“[Woods] says he’s been playing with a bad neck for about a month and thinks it could be a bulging dick.”

She quickly caught her slip and clarified that it was a bulging “disk” in his neck, not a bulging part of the male anatomy…  Too late.  The cat is out of the bag.

That’s a big “DOH!”

I’m doing some work and found a couple of great puns related to Longaberger Golf Club in Nashport, OH.

The GM of Longaberger’s name is “Bob Green.”  Get it?

And the address of the course is:

One Long Drive
Nashport, OH

“One Long Drive”??!?!  Classic.  Love it.

I want a Nike backpack shirt like Francesco Molinari’s

I’m watching the first round of the Players Championship at the famous TPC Sawgrass Stadium course today. I’m half in and out of golf consciousness when I thought I saw a golfer wearing a little lady’s black backpack with thin straps. You know, the kind you see in a New York department store or something.

The player was Francesco Molinari and I swear it looked like he was wearing a backpack. We’ll call this shirt the “Nike Backpack Shirt.”

Some of today’s shirt designs are cool.  Some work.  This one?  Not so much.
