Tiger for 2005 Player of the Year? He's looking comfortable with his new swing.

It's scary because he didn't even play that well. He was blocking a lot of shots to the right.

What Homer said. Wait until he catches fire under his ass, then it'll be 2000 all over again.

What's best for him is the courses for the majors this year (Augusta, Pinehurst, St. Andrews, Winged Foot) fit him like a damned glove.

I think if anything holds him back this year, it will be exactly this. In his new swing, Tiger doesn't really release as much as before. I say, give him a little more time to perfect it, and he'll be unstoppable. Again.

Should be good if Vijay, Ernie, Phil and Retief are also playing at the top of their games.

Great putt on 18. 17 looked like he was competing like the old Tiger. The second shot on 18 was awful. Last year Tiger kept saying he was close. This year he is close and could get there at anytime. I'll say the same thing I told Bill last weekend. If Tiger wins a time or two before the Masters and finds a swing, he will catch fire if he can snap the Masters off. And I think he might. If he can win another time or two, like he always seemed to at Bay Hill, watch out. I would love to see him play like he did. But he's close. Not there yet.

He's good, but he's still no Vijay. The kid's got lots of potential though. /images/graemlins/smirk.gif

His swing looks like crap, and still he wins. Amazing player.

The changes look pretty minor to me.

It often takes many players around a year worth of swings to be comertable with a swing change. I fear for the worst (at least for the rest of the pga tour).
