Laid back watching the final Round of the Sony Open. It comes to mind, was it Fitzsimons or some other highly paid sports commentator that said Woods was boring to watch? Right now, its Allenby down the straight against Ryan Palmer and Steve Stricker. I'm struck by the mundanity of it. These guys are virtually mirror images of each other...smooth swing, lag putters. Revelation: no one wants to take a risk to win. They are waiting for the others to falter.
Woods would have siezed this round by the neck. His sense of his destiny as the greatest golfer of all time would have ensured he left these other robots in his wake. I reckon that golf is in a kind of limbo while he is away sorting out his personal issues. I hope he gets back soon, because he is just so good to watch playing this game.
And of course, I hope he comes back as a better man, knowing his future purpose as a husband and father and provider of joy to those he loves and who love him.
