At the start of the season everyone was talking about the potential Grand Slam. Unfortunately the first major of the year put a lid on that talk with Tiger unable to match the standards set by Trevor Immelman through the four days. A few weeks before that, all talk was about a “Tiger unbeaten in 08’ record but even that was not going to happen. But that is when we are talking Tiger standards. Despite the obvious “failures” or shall we say his inability to live up to our expectations from Tiger Woods this was going to be a bumper year for Tiger. Perhaps it still might be but this injury surely does put a question mark on that. I can assure you, if Tiger comes back from injury and wins the U.S. Open it would be close to unbelievable and Tiger has flirted with that line more than just once. Let’s just hope when he returns to competitive golf he is close to his ‘A’ game because it would be a shame if his quest for a historic season on tour is laid low by an injury. I guess we will just have to wait and watch.
