Tiger News
Well, Tiger Woods made it official and said he was not going to play in the Mercedes Benz Championship next week at Kapalua. His rationale was that he hadn’t prepared properly and wanted some additional time off before he started the season. I can’t blame him at all. Yes, the Tour brass are disappointed, but they didn’t see this coming? They’re probably more disappointed that Tiger (and Phil) aren’t there to give the new FedEx Cup some much needed support, but then, why should they be there?
In other Tiger news, he announced that he and his wife are expecting their first child sometime this summer. Great news for the Woods family. If you think Tiger is picky about when he plays now, wait until his child is born as I’m sure he’s the type of father that will want to be there for his child as much as possible.
