<SMALL>PONTE VEDRA BEACH, FLA.(AP) </SMALL>—Tiger Woods has withdrawn from the Players Championship with an apparent injury on the seventh hole of the final round.
After hitting his tee shot on No. 7 far right Sunday, Woods called over an official. He hit his second shot and grimaced in apparent pain again.

Woods then walked to the middle of the fairway to shake hands with playing partner Jason Bohn before leaving on a golf cart.

Anybody know what he hurt????

Brett Favre starts every game since 1992 as an NFL QB............

Meanwhile, we have our good friend Mr.Toast quitting a golf tournament.

Wonder if Sears would even want him to do a big blue commercial?

Tiger pulls out at TPC with back injury

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. -- Tiger Woods withdrew from The Players Championship on Sunday with an injury that he fears might be a bulging disk in his upper back.
"I've been playing with a bad neck for about a month," Woods said.
After hitting his drive well to the right on the seventh hole, Woods called for an official. He hit his second shot and grimaced, then walked to the middle of the fairway to shake hands with playing partner Jason Bohn before leaving on a golf cart.
Woods had his head bowed for several minutes as he sat in front of his locker and other times kept his eyes closed before answering questions from a couple of reporters.
He said he first felt the injury before the Masters and plans to have an MRI next week. Woods said he has felt a tingling sensation on his right side down to his fingers.
It is the first time he has withdrawn from a tournament since the Nissan Open at Riviera in 2006, when he narrowly made the cut and withdrew from the final two rounds because of the flu.
Woods started the final round 10 shots out of the lead and was 2 over through six holes.
It was Woods' third tournament back from his five-month hiatus after a sex scandal. He tied for fourth at the Masters but missed the cut at Quail Hollow last week.

this is great

Woods had his head bowed for several minutes as he sat in front of his locker, and other times kept his eyes closed as if he were in the middle of a nap before answering questions from three reporters.

OR

Woods said he does not know what caused the injury, only that “playing doesn’t help it.”

Steroids or HGH would really help him out here. Oh, wait. . .

I said it before and I will say it again. He will not break Jack's record for most Majors.

He is a little bitch.

I am sure 5 team parlay can find where I posted it.

He went to the same schools as M. Wie, she is a quitter as well!

GMoney,

You are right about that, but Wie graduated with Honors. Tiger still has some more work to put in.

He's only been playing for one month as he came back at the Masters and now we're suppose to believe that he has had an injured back for a month which would include the Masters. Excuses! Excuses! He can't take the fact that his personal life has affected his playing ability. Between the ears, he is fried and cannot compete with the leaders right now and may never again or at least until he gets his personal life in some sort of order.

I don't know how that is, She's not that Sharp. I remember when she forgot to fill out her card or something ??

Honors = Maid of Honor ?? @)

Tiger and Wie's situations are completely different.

Wie was on her way to shooting over 88 or whatever the magic number is that would have prevented her from playing on the LPGA tour on sponsors exemptions (she was not a member of the LPGA at the time).

Tiger is trying to play himself back into competitive golf after not having played but 6 competitive rounds of golf before this week. He wants to play and he knows he needs to play. If he stopped playing, its because he's hurt. Not because he was worried about his score...

It's a good possibility that one of his flings told him last night to withdraw from the round today "to prove his love to her"....and that golf is not as important to him as her.

Better possibility of this than him being actually injured bad enough not to play.

oldmanTED · May 9, 2010

Remember this is the same guy who played through a fractured leg last year. An injured back wouldn't stop him from continuing if he was in contention. He just can't mentally accept that he is currently no longer the best in the world right now. As I said, mentally, he is fried. I watched him all week and noticed he just flat out wasn't happy on the course, period. His personal life is a mess and until he grows up and straightens it out, he will not be able to compete at the highest level IMHO.
