Tiger Skips Barclays, Causes Mayhem

Tiger Woods has decided to skip the Barclays, which is causing a bit of stir in the golfing community. Many folks, including tour head honchu Tim Finchem have expressed disappointment in Tiger not playing saying that he’s not supporting the season ending Fedex Cup. The four tournaments starting with the Barclays are supposed to renew interest in the tour during a usually quiet time. Much hated and once voted “most arrogant tour player” by caddies, Rory Sabbatini, has publicly said he thinks Tiger should play, to which Tiger should have replied “Speak to the hand monkey face”.

Golf forums around the web have also had little gits voicing their opinion with one punter stating “Tiger should play the Barclays, he’s not bigger than the game”. We agree, Tiger isn’t bigger than the game because he IS the game. Tiger has done enough for the Tour and the game and the fedex cup is just like any other events on the tour in that players may choose whether they play or not. So all you Tiger haters, shut up and let the man do what he does best, which is play in a limited amount of tournaments, and play golf like it’s never been played before.
