Tiger

Once again Tiger is having an aweful year. Just over two months into 2013 and he has only won twice. I'm appalled. Dumb founded. Amazed because there are people out there concerned he isn't playing well. And they should be, due to the fact that last year he only won three times all year long.

I know he is not winning majors at the moment, but he will. He may only win one more but it's probably closer to 5 or six, before it's all said and done.

Let me clarify a couple things that we forget. Most, and that means most...professional golfers would be thrilled to win three times in their entire career. To think about winning 3 times in one year would be a feat monstrous in proportion.

Second, most professional golfers on the PGA tour do not shoot 66 everyday. As someone once said, "The guys on TV are great players." Let's remember what TV is all about. RATINGS! Their not going to show some PGA pro shooting 78 or 80, but you'll find those scores at the bottom of the leader board.

Last but not least, it's very important to remember that even the guys on tour hit wayward shots. They miss fairways, greens, three foot putts and chip bad. Not as often as we do, but they have their bad days.

So please remember, as you fire up your golf clubs this spring, take a step back and remind yourself it's a game. Get out of the golf cart as often as possible and walk and enjoy some of the good shots you make.

In the mean time, hit'em hard and look up.
Byron
