Tiger’s PGA Championship Loss Is Golf’s Gain


Not only does defeat prove Woods is human, it shows he can be even better

CHASKA, Minn.
- Perhaps there was a lesson to be learned in what took place at Hazeltine National Golf Club on Sunday, a lesson for Tiger Woods, a lesson for all of us.

Woods began the final round of the PGA Championship with a two-stroke lead. Woods with the lead on Sunday is like Kirstie Alley with cheesecake on her plate, you can bet it’s going to be put away. Woods, who had never been caught from behind during the final round of a major, started Sunday with a perfect 14-for-14 mark with the lead or a share of it after 54 holes.

Having played Professional Pool, this is very exciting.

The ONLY way to get better at your game is by playing someone better than you.

Mind you, if you're just hacking around and out having fun, that's one thing. But when there's millions of dollars on the line you're going to see top players playing at their best and that will make the game far more exciting and in their cases, challenging.

I'd hate to be in Tiger's shoes, always expected to be the best. It's exciting to know there are a select few that can and will take the sport to the next level, a level in which we haven't seen or enjoyed in many years. I may have to start watching it again, especially if these two are playing.

maybe now he can start to work on ridding himself of all those childish temper tantrums he has on the golf course

It's nice to others win, Tiger's got enough money and titles.
