Tiger Woods injured

Tiger could (and likely did) make insane money playing exhibitions. Nobody would begrudge him his golf legacy. It'll be a long time before, if ever, we see another like him.

 

I couldn't agree more. He is the second greatest golfer of all time (well, maybe T-2 with Bobby Jones) and I feel fortunate beyond measure to have covered him at his most amazing major win, the 2000 Open at Pebble. I hope he prospers no matter what his future. I hope even more he's able to erase that wild dark side that's ruined so much of his life, be it tawdry one-nighters or going 80 on a 30 mph road.

 

Still, I'd like to know what he paid Rachel Uchitel $10 million not to talk about!

Also, I just discovered the series of instructional films Bobby Jones shot in 1931 which were unavailable for decades. Highly recommended.

 

We’ll always have April, 2019

 

Agreed. I think Nantz would love it to happen tomorrow, but that PGA for Phil this year likely means a few more years of serious play. Plus Saudi money coming into play.

I do wonder id golf is a big enough property that they can pay Phil enough to make it worth his while.

 

Given the pivot to a gambling focus in so many sports, Phil's insight there would be valuable too.

 

I think the biggest obstacle to him taking the job would be having someone else dictate his schedule. Phil would want to do the big events. I’m not sure you could pay him enough to do the lesser events on the CBS schedule.
