So do his knees, hip, and back.

The aura is gone.  Figjam outclassed him last year by slow playing him and we sleep on Brooks not winning Harding Park.  He's got some scars now

He's made about $40MM in earnings.  Likely another $25MM+ in sponsorships/endorsements.  He's got 4 majors.  He's got a ton of injuries.  He's pretty open about not loving golf that much.  Unless he really wants a Masters, I wouldn't be surprised to just see him cruise the remainder of his career.

Zalatoris time?

Will his putting stand up for 3 more days?

He was pretty vocal about coming to majors and saying things like only 15-20 guys could beat him and the such.  He might say he's accomplished enough and cruise, but that wasn't his mindset only 2 years ago

He's too cool for golf, I think we will see him walking into the Jag's linebackers room come next fall.

This par 70 set up, presents a real challenge for these players . It is a PGA not an open so the rough is lower, but still very formidable.

Will Koepka ever get healthy enough to contend?

Everyone talks about his injuries, but he made major club/ball switch.  Attached article explains the difference, just like Patrick Reed going with PXG.  These guys appreciated the money involved with getting endorsement money, but never understand since majority of time the club/ball switch effects their game.

He was an equipment free agent after Nike folded.

Bro tax.   If you are going to drink enough to be an idiot, it is going to hurt your wallet.

He was with Mizuno and used Tiltelist ball when he was winning.

Nike not making clubs anymore effected Tiger, Rory and many others with equipment, but the apparel, ball, shoe endorsements remain.

Slow greens doing him in. 

Cantlay is now officially a LUP superstar and nothing more.

When Tiger is right on the cut line, I actually kind of want him to miss the cut.

It's beneath a golfer of his caliber to have to slop around on the weekend, trying to finish in the top 50, or within 20 strokes of the leaders. Especially when that golfer is playing on a bum leg.

I don't really feel "sorry" for him, but I do feel, "What's the point?"

When Tiger is in situations like he is right now, he always seems to  play well the last few holes to stay below the cut. Of course The media wants him to make the cut for the ratings. He will be in a featured group both days of the weekend even if he is last place lol

Why not a 36? He's Tiger Woods!
