THE BLOGQuit acting like a brat
Doctors have cleared Woods for one golf activity, putting, but the best player in the world said he isn’t interested. Tiger said he won’t be playing golf until next year, so there is no reason for him to hit the practice green right now. After his first knee surgery this year in April, Woods said after a week or so that he was bored from riding the exercise bike. After being laid up and not being able to do anything following the more extensive surgery in June, he was glad to be able to finally hop on his stationary bike recently. Woods did a radio interview with his pal Scott Van Pelt of ESPN last week and said he watched only the last few holes of Padraig Harrington’s victory in the British Open last month. He said it was difficult because he wasn’t there to defend his title and that he also didn’t plan to watch much if any of the PGA Championship, which he won the last two years.
Personally, i think Tiger is acting like a BRAT! I understand that it sucks not being able to defend the title and not being able to add another one to your belt but if you respect the game and your fellow players–don’t you think you should be more supportive? Instead of being a whiner, how about sucking it up and showing a little more support to the other players out in the field.
Woods added that he watched only highlights of the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, which he has won six times. He also discussed the Brett Favre situation and said when it’s time for him to retire, he won’t have any problem putting the clubs away and leaving them there.
