The same week Tiger Woods divorces, he bounces back on the golf course.
Tiger Woods was the Tiger of old Thursday - shooting a 65 and is tied for the lead at the Barclays in New Jersey after his first round.
His performance comes a few days after the formal announcement was made that he and Elin Nordegren are legally splitsville. His performance at Barclays is being noted by Golf.com who also pointed out a Nordegren lookalike on the green.
Tiger had been playing the worst season of his professional career until Thursday.
Nordegren's first, and perhaps last, interview was published in People Wednesday in which she said she'd "been through hell" with the golfer over his alleged extra-marital trysts. It was last November that this poor SUV and subsequently Tiger's reputation took quite a beating.
It's about time. I don't care who he was effin', that was between him and his wife. Now maybe he can recapture the magic he used to have on the golf course.
Time to get over it and move on. Most of us lost interest months ago. BUT, all of you headline grabbing, marketshare-mongering, life-destroying media mudslingers just couldn't resist sensationalizing what should have been a private matter between two people, both of whom probably deserved a lot better than the poo poo the media covered them in.
obvioulsly you haven't lost interest as you read the story and posted a comment. lol.
Tiger Woods sucks at being married as much as he does his golf game the past few months.
TRUE, IM GLAD TO SEE THERES AT LEAST ONE GOOD AMERICAN IN HERE
No more Tiger ....he's back to being the goofy geek ELDRICK TONT WOODS...hey Eldrick your problem is your using to much right of the HAND
Cmon Tiger. Everyone makes mistakes. Move forward and win again!
For all you Tiger haters, well you all can go straight to he^^, don't get me wrong what he did was awful to his family, but the golfing side of Tiger is back.
Keep it up Tiger!
LOL...
Isn't that exactly what got him into this mess in the first place?
Tiger Woods!! Since you are and will always be the Best Golfer in the hearts and minds of hundreds of millions of people on earth, not to mention the Official Record Books, we once again Salute You as your Fans.
Speaking of the official record books, where does he stand in major championships won compared to Jack Nicklaus?
TIGER WILL NEVER BE BACK TO HIS 2000-2001 FORM. NOT GUNNA HAPPEN. BOGEY, WHAT MAKES YOU THINK HE IS BACK? ONE ROUND OF GOLF TODAY?
Yep, everything starts with a first.....
stop being such a pessimist. he has a new swing coach. he has closure from this whole mess. Jordan took a break from basketball and how many more championships did he win?? get your mind right.
He's free to concentrate on golf now, don't have all that legal stuff haning over his head, just have this feeling that he's long overdue.
Totally agree with you Bogey. Now that he got rid of that golddigging wife of his, maybe he will be regain his game. We don't know what went on behind closed doors. Who's to say Elin is Miss Innocent.
She deserves nothing. How many tournament did she win? you woman just love to steal a mans hard earned buck.
After reading the comments left previously by these self-proclaimed studs, I have one thing to say. I hope you have billions of dollars in your bank accounts because with your boring personalities, you won't be attracting women any other way.
Women are attracted to money?
I am sure there was some prenupt. She did not get half of what he owns and half of his future earnings, which is good.
So to compare – she got as much as my ex -wife did.
Maybe this is out of topic, but although Elin has a twin sister, as somebody mentioned, I think Tiger is decent and raised with proper dignity and grace. He will never go after the sister, like Larry King did I feel nauseated everytime I mention LK .
Elin has put her blinkers because she knows since day one she married him her life is set. I dont think she is as naive to say she's been through HELL. Smart lady as her knows no matter what she gets away with hims money
