Running Tiger Woods thread

Whoa -- damn would this be great if true, although the article makes me tab the likelihood at less than 10 percent. According to otherwise forgettable tour player Dan Olsen, Tiger's sabbatical is actually a suspension. Tour and Steiny vehemently deny it.

He does emulate MJ, after all.

"It's not testosterone, but it's something else," Olsen said. "I think when it's all said and done, he's gonna surpass Lance Armstrong with infamy."

Journeyman Dan Olsen says Tiger Woods has been suspended for a month by PGA Tour - ESPN

 

"Everything I said on that radio interview was only my opinion and not based on any first-hand knowledge or facts," Olsen told ESPN.com. "I want to make a full retraction to everything I said for the entire radio interview. And I apologize to Tiger, Nike, Phil (Mickelson), (commissioner) Tim Finchem and the PGA Tour.''

and

"I'll be looked at as just some crazy f--- nobody making accusations about Tiger," Olsen told ESPN.com on Monday.

 

They got to him

 

Dan Olsen just became the answer to an awesome sports trivia question forevermore.

 

Dan Olsen... New favorite golfer.

 

So...
Even with PEDS...
And a "cheater ball"...
He still sucks.

 

How the fuck does that guy get on the radio and this becomes a story?
He has ZERO credibility. ZERO ties to Tiger and anyone close to associated to him and a close-to-nothing association with the PGA.
I understand it being a story where he retracts everything he said, but this shit should have been vetted before he got to open his yap on the airwaves.
Wow.
There's a reason sports talk radio is fucking garbage.

 

Tiger would never take PED's. He has been at the forefront asking for tougher testing. He has never failed a drug test. This speculation seems so unfair.

When's his former Doctor get out of jail?

 

He's more ARod than Lance

 

Rachel Uchitel insists you spell her name correctly.

 

Why would he apologize to Mickelson? Are they friends or did he also say something about Phil?

 

Every injury Tiger has had he has come back from in a standard amount of time. I don't recall him having any spectacular recoveries that happened in an expedient fashion or the discussion of him coming back "before anyone expected" he would.
