Tiger Woods will not dominate at Doral
Everybody’s predicting Tiger Woods will mop up the field in this weekend’s CA Championships at Doral.
I don’t think so. I think he’ll struggle.
Golf is a game of feel, even at Tiger’s level, and he ain’t feeling it right now.
Woods blew up at Arnold Palmer’s tournament at Bay Hill, finishing with a double bogey, bogey and triple bogey on his way to a 76. That included a 43 on the back nine, matching the worst of his pro career.
True, he’s dominated these World Golf Championship events, winning 12 of his 23 WGC starts, and he’s traditionally played well at Doral. But, stats mean little when you’re not swinging the club well, and Tiger is not swinging it well.
His swing is so tightly tuned, his bio-mechanics so highly-strung, that the least little interference can throw him off drastically. I’m not saying he’s going through another slump, but he will definitely not walk all over the field this week.

ever ask your opinion on anything!
"Dominant - Right from the Start". Man,
you need to write about something you
understand. This ain't your gig.
I have a sixth sense for these things, and you'd do well to heed my words, instead of making a public fool out of yourself.
struggle. What a joke. He won by two and
should have won by five or six. He had
a bad day putting the ball, not a bad
day with his swing (which is what you
said would happen). Besides, your blog
indicated that Tiger was "off" and would
not have a good week at Doral. The guy
won you idiot. Your prediction was nothing
but drivel, just like the rest of your
crap.
I really can't see anyone paying for them. Whatever
made you write this blog? What was your motivation?
You remind me of a weather forcaster, just throw it
on the wall and see if it sticks.
The guy almost blew it on the last hole.
"Should have won..." doesn't count.
Would you say he "mopped up the field?"
He won by TWO strokes.
And stop putting words in my mouth. You're doing a good enough job putting your feet in there, nincompoop.
But hey, I didn't say he would "struggle".
You did. I guess he struggled all the
way to first place, lol. Must be tough
to shoot 10 under on a tough track
"struggling" like he was. Let's hope he
doesn't "struggle" at Augusta, he might
win by 10 or 12 shots on a course with
no rough. And your comment about him
laying up is just hilarious. He probably
did it to get a rise out of people like
you. He's had some of the most dramatic
finishes in the history of the game.
Remember the putt on 17 at the TPC you
numbskull? Or the shot at 16 in the
Masters? Yeah, he's boring to watch
finish. Clown.
