He just finished T-7 at the Dunlop Phoenix Tournament; it wasn't a completely horrible field as Tiger was in it (and won) and Jim Furyk was too
maybe this will help him gain some confidence for next year and he can be decent again; he has had a long fall from the top 11/20/2005 9:52:49 PM |

What exactly happened to DD? I remember he was crowd/reporter phobic. Did he just flip out and withdraw from playing for awhile or did he get hurt? 11/20/2005 10:10:02 PM |

He became obsessed with snowboarding (and other extreme sports as I recall)...kind of put gold on the backburner for a little bit. I also want to say he got hurt pretty bad snowboarding, which set him back for a little.
That..and the fact that he's a douche (which has no relevance, I just don't like him). 11/20/2005 10:19:11 PM |

He decided he wanted to snowboard instead of golf. The faggot turned down a chance to play in the skins game one year...not because he had other plans, but because....wait for it....
he didn't need the money. WTF.
He's an idiot, and I hope he doesn't get back on the PGA tour. He doesn't deserve the right to play in the majors anymore because he basically quit after winning the British Open, and now he really just plays golf for the hell of it (and dont get me wrong, it should be fun for him)...but he has no desire to win. Who the fuck plays in professional tournaments and cant break 85? He's out there taking up a spot from someone trying hard and dedicating his life to playing golf and getting into the open or on the PGA tour. fuck him.
ok /rant

^ I agree about taking a Tour/Open spot from a hard-working guy with less talent/name recognition, but who cares if he doesn't want to play in the Skins game? 11/20/2005 10:37:34 PM |

well thats just one comment out of many that he's made I dont like or agree with....just using it to prove my point that he's a douche. It wasnt the fact that he didnt want to play, its the comment that I didnt like.
I mean if you dont want to play, say you dont want to play. At least come up with a better excuse than "I dont need the money". That just sounds arogant and lazy. 11/20/2005 10:42:40 PM |

He was also diagnosed with that vertigo thing and I think that was believed to have set him back some too
i think what happened to him is he tried for so long to win a major that when he finally won one he thought it was gonna be some life changing event and he said that it really wasn't; nothing really changed. I think this caused him to lose a lot of interest along w/ he started to pursue other things 11/20/2005 10:43:17 PM |
