Backlighting Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 As a golf fan, it pains me not to have Tiger Woods back in the mix. After all, it hasn't been that long since he was winning tourneys. For a period of time he did dominate, like no other golfer. Wright Thompson, a senior writer for ESPN just put this interesting piece out: The Secret History of Tiger Woods. He writes "The death of his father set a battle raging inside the world's greatest golfer. How he waged that war---through an obsession with the Navy Seals---is the tale of how Tiger lost his way". A great read for golf or Tiger fans: http://espn.go.com/espn/feature/story/_/id/15278522/how-tiger-woods-life-unraveled-years-father-earl-woods-death Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brant Gaede Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I'm sure this is a good read, but all pro-golfers over 40 are over the hill. If they want to effectively prolong their careers they need to go consult Durk Pearson. --Brant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backlighting Posted April 22, 2016 Author Share Posted April 22, 2016 Brant, is Durk Pearson still alive? How about Sandy? I read their best seller "Life Extension" back in the 80's. Yeah, Tiger turns 40 this December...he could have passed Jack with majors won if he didn't have all the drama & physical issues. Things were going well until his father died, 10 yrs ago.

He regularly posts on Jack Wheelers paid site ToThePoint.Com under the name "Skye." --Brant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
