Player of the Year
Author: Jeremy | Category: Uncategorized
Tiger Woods was named the PGA Player of the Year. I think, however, that the columnist I read is right, that they should have named him “golfer of the year” considering the double meaning that “player” has taken on. It’s good that his big triumphs this year are being recognized, despite his more recent issues. I mean, let’s remember what he did in 2009. He missed over 6 months at the end of 2008 because of how he played and hurt himself. He took the time off and then came back with a great ability to play. He worked on certain aspects of his game and was able to win some major tournaments. Part of the reason for this is that some of the other best players were out of the game for awhile, due to illness and personal issues. Nevertheless, Woods showed that he could be thrown off his competition rhythm and still come back and win. That’s not easy to do!
