Woods Out For Tour Championship
Tiger Woods made a suprise announcement yesterday saying he would skip the PGA’s Tour Championship next week in Atlanta. The announcement caught everyone by surpise, not the least of whom was the PGA staff in Atlanta. They were a bit miffed at Tiger saying the sponsors and fans both would be disappointed.
Given the emotional rollercoaster of a year Tiger has had, he certainly has earned next week off if he so desires. Of course, there’s lots of speculation that Tiger wanted to keep his winning streak intact and that he might have felt rusty. Whaaat? If he wanted to keep his winning streak alive, what better place than a limited field of “all-stars”?
I for one applaud his decision and the courage it took to to pretty much give Finchem and company the “see-ya” next week wave.
