Tiger lost

Monday, March 24th, 2008

Wow…Geoff ogilvy just won on the PGA tour and all anyone can talk about is how the streak is over.  It is not like it was going to really last.  Tiger is great for golf but some of us are getting tired of people’s unrealistic expectations.  Here is some search data to show the difference between tiger and everyone else. 

Think about how intimidating it must be for Golf Pro’s competing against Tiger Woods.

At age 6 Tiger Woods made his first birdie on a 91 yard par three. He Won the Optimist International Junior World at ages 8, 9, 12 and 13! At age 20 he was the Sports Illustrated “Sportsman of the Year”… blah blah, the list goes on and everyone already knows all these facts.

But here are some additional factoids you may find interesting regaurding the number of times certain keywords are searched on the internet. We’ll start with the 2007 PGA Tour positions. (These searches are per month)

Tiger Woods               63,096

Ernie Els                     970

Woody Austin            45

John Senden              7

Aaron Oberholser     2

So Tiger is pretty much a Giant on the world wide web and not just on the golf course. Just for the record George W Bush only gets searched 30,853 a month. Maybe Tiger should run for office??

Why can’t tiger hit it down the middle?

Thursday, March 20th, 2008

Tiger is the best Scrambler on tour.  That is not the stat that most tour pros want to own because it means you in the tall stuff way more than you should be.  That is scary to the rest of the pros on tour.  If tiger could ever figure out how not to spray the ball all over the course with his driver he could dominate the tour…and by dominate the tour I mean win a few more tournaments than he does right now.  Last year Tiger was ranked near the bottom of PGA pros in accuracy.  He hit 48% of his fairways compared to say Scott Verplank who hit 81% of fairways.  Yea, yea…I know what you are thinking “But Tiger hits it so far that he drives it THROUGH the fairway.”  No he doesn’t he just sprays it.  Yea, yea…I know what you are thinking “But Tiger is so strong that Tiger hitting out of the rough is like Fred Funk hitting off the fairway.”  Wrong again genius.  Tiger wants to hit off the fairway as much as Corey Pavin does who is usually 40 yards behind him.  Tiger is one of the greatest putters ever. Period.  Tiger is one of the greatest scramblers ever. Period.  Until he can learn how to hit it down the middle please stop talking about how great of a driver he is, because he is NOT. Period.
