Not a chance. Those who vote for POY (whose ballots actually count) always give deference to those who’ve won majors. See 1996.

Response:
As tiresome and obnoxious as this SLUMP talk is, Weir would be my pick at this point, Major winners get the nod, all things being even. Weir has also, all in all played better in the other Majors then Tiger. Tiger is still the best player in the world, but Weir has had the better year to this point. Now, if Tiger or Love or Furyk get hot the remainder of the year and put up some wins while Weir doesn’t, then I reserve the right to change my opinion.

Woods and Watson on their respective Tours. Hard to argue either choice; however, in each case, there were runners-up that certainly could have just as easily taken the honor. Tiger Woods is a force on the Tour for a number of reasons that the other players just don’t seem to possess. Yes, I’m going back a year or two now, but can you honestly say that fellow professionals would express the same "awe" in respect to Furyk, Singh or Love III? I don’t think so. Although Vijay had a great year, there just doesn’t seem to be the same … I don’t know … that there is with Tiger. My personal opinon? His coach and his equipment let him down this year. I truly feel he needs to get both back in order. Larry

Money title is not as prestigious as Vardon, 4 wins not as good as five wins (or at least not in the South). Neither had a major (also Love had 4 wins but no major) If Weir or Furyk had won 3 additional tourneys, I believe they would have been POY. Paul

Is this like a take home test? Don’t you have an opinion? At least it was close, USA Today reports that three un-named sources claimed it was the closest vote since 98. Still, I don’t think there’s any surprise here. My take is that Tiger won due to several factors. #1, He’s Tiger the media star, damn good golfer, role model and bankable corporate citizen. In other words he won as much for what he’s done off the course as on it. #2 Tiger played fewer tournaments than Singh and missed money title by slim margin. #3 Singh didn’t win a major either #4 Earnie Els was in the playoff versus Tiger, not VJ. But what the hell do I know, I don’t know anybody who voted. I imagine by now the PGA guys think they need a damn good reason not to vote for Tiger. VJ’s year, as good as it was, wasn’t good enough.

Nice to see that Vijay’s desperate grab for the money title was dismissed by his peers. The POY should be awarded based on excellence. It should not go to someone looking to pad his bank account. Tiger was teh best player by far in ‘03. Hats off to him.

That’s a great point, Bruce. If Tiger actually rededicates himself (not that a 5-win season is anything to sneeze at, mind you), he might come roaring back and not give anyone else a chance in ‘04. Truth be told, a 5-win season is usually plenty good enough to win POY. The only reason some of us doubted he’d win is because he didn’t live up to the high standards HE had set. Silly in hindsight, I guess. Randy

What makes you think ‘01-’02 is a level Tiger can "roar back" to? I think Tiger can obviously continue playing some fantastic golf, and will win plenty more events and majors.

Actually Colin’s post was correct. Tiger has lifted the bar so high by his dramatic achievements that even he may have a difficult time living up to his past sucess. Colin points out that *our* expectations may be difficult for Tiger to create. 2003 is an example. His results were great, but not up to past standards he set. Funny how rational comments bring out the low life shit from the fringe.

This is the first year that I have really become involved with the professional players and the pro tournaments….all because I went to the TPC here at Ponte Verde last spring. I honestly have not enjoyed Tiger all that much. He seems like a petulant little boy. While there were no real individual standouts, his comments aside, I think Vijay was probably one of the most enjoyable players to watch. Tom Watson on the Senior tour wins hands down but Craig Stadler was an enjoyment to see too. I guess if POY means Best POY then it would have to go to Tiger. Although if it is just POY I’d have to give it to Vijay, I don’t think anyone expected him to have the kind of year he had. Just my thoughts. Sheila
Response:
I didn’t say he would, could or will. I say "maybe he might." IF he rededicates himself. It’s a bit unfair of me to even imply that he wasn’t as dedicated in ‘03, as Mr. Woods had not been clearing his practice itinerary with me for most of the year. A five-win year is a career season for most players, but I think even Tiger would admit it was disappointing from the standpoint of his not contending at any of the majors after he sent that wayward tee shot on #3 on Sunday at The Masters into never-never land. (How quickly we forget that he was, in fact, very much in the hunt until that rather uncharacteristic course management mistake.) Tiger has said, as Jack had said years earlier, that the key to winning majors is just getting your game to peak at the right time. As every player who’s ever lived has found, that’s easier said than done. It appeared for a few years that Tiger had figured out how to turn the switch to "on." But of course in ‘03, we learned he is human, after all. Whether or not his drop-off in majors this year was symptomatic of any bigger problem (distracted by Elin? not seeing Butch as regularly? too many Buick commercials?), well, none of us is in a position to say with certainty. It’s all speculation, and 19th hole fodder. But as Bruce Newman said elsewhere, it’s interesting to note that Tiger’s peers viewed him as the best player overall in ‘03, DESPITE his failures in the majors and the fact that he had, for him, a disappointing year while others like Weir and Singh had their best years ever. That speaks volumes about Tiger’s talent. The players know. Very simply put, Tiger Woods remains the most explosive player on the PGA TOUR. That doesn’t mean he’ll win everytime he laces up his golf shoes. But it does mean that his peers believe he’s the man to beat whenever they all meet at the starting gate. As for whether Tiger can "roar back" to the level he was at in ‘01-’02, who knows? ’99 wouldn’t be a bad place for him to roar back to. One major, 8 wins overall. It’s funny how such a thing would seem far-fetched for any other player but him. But since he’s done that before, and then topped it more than once, he’s raised a level of expectation. Unreasonable, perhaps, but it’s there. Randy

We’d never seen anything like it before. Why would we think we’d see something like it again? Like Haley’s Comet. If you blinked, you missed it. The difference, I suppose, is that unlike Johnny Miller, who burned white hot for a short period, Tiger has already shown more staying power. Whether or not he burns out sooner than some remains to be seen. One can only assume that if Tiger really wanted to beef up his win total, he could pretty easily start showing up at all the Fruit of the Loom Boxer Shorts Open tournaments, instead of focusing solely on the majors, the elite field events and the second-tier TOUR events like Memorial, Bay Hill, etc. Just ask Vijay Singh about whether entering a few extra tournaments can bolster one’s standing on the money list and pick up a few wins. I just don’t see Tiger doing that. If he’s burning out, as you say, he’ll burn out playing 16-19 events a year. Hard to imagine him burning out at that pace. Randy

Colin’s post was right, if you’re a moron. Tiger continues to dominate like no other golfer in history. So he didn’t win 3 majors. He will next year. Suck it nice and easy.

That’s true of course. In favour of Tiger repeating 01-02 at some stage is: 1. He’s Tiger Woods. 2. Despite what everyone says, a marriage/permanent relationship might be a positive, not a distraction. It certainly has been for players I am familiar with, like Robert Allenby and Stuart Appleby. 3. Most players are at their best in their thirties. 4. His explosiveness could easily be replaced by greater experience and other more highly developed skills. Against Tiger getting back to those heady levels is: 1. He’s lost some of his huge advantage in power and length. Other players have caught up, the competition is stronger. 2. He’s getting a few niggly injuries that weren’t present before. 3. As a contra to 3. above, he’s getting older and therefore less explosive. 4. Every player seems to have a "window" in which they play their best-possible golf. For some it’s only a couple of years. For some it’s a decade. Few do it for a whole career. Even Jack had a 6-year period where he won 30 of his 70 or so USPGA tournaments; Sam Snead had two such periods, lasting about six years each, in which he won 57 of his 82. Tom Watson’s and Arnold Palmer’s windows actually only lasted about 7 years each in total. Tiger’s has been going on for seven years now (but he could be the exception). 5. Maybe the "will" to achieve at that level again just won’t be obtainable. I guess we’ll know next year.

I know this might be heresy, but I think if anything he’s become a bit unsure of where he is with his swing. This year saw lots of times where he either pulled left or blocked right, and he seems a bit out of place sometimes with his hand/arm position vis-a-vis his body position. He needs to sort it out again. — Cheers Colin Wilson RSG Roll Call: http://rec-sport-golf.com/members/?rollcall=wilsonc Trentham Golf Club: http://www.trenthamgolf.com
