foreal, its more that Woods lost, than Yang wins...

In a word, yes.
It is safe to say Tiger's better days left him 24-30 months ago.
He is on the downside now of a storybook, once in a lifetime golf career.

 

[steaktartar]

no he couldnt make a putt........if thats a choke then maybe......but his putter failed him.......as mine has done to me

Hmm, is his better days Behind him ?? Maybe

I just think he has lost some Passion for the Sport. I could be wrong here... as I'm not that much of a Fan of Golf.

( Use to play, but haven't in the last 3 years )

Yang made some clutch shots, but Tiger missed SO many putts..I would say Tiger defiantely choked this one..if he makes a couple of putts it would have been over

I think he choked by not being aggressive on Saturday. He could have put that tournament away in the 3rd round however he played not to lose it.

 

[DesertNole]

No, he got outplayed. He didn't go out there and yak all over himself, he wasn't spraying the ball all over the place. He struggled with the flatstick for once during the final round of a tourney. It happens. Take nothing away from what Yang did out there, he was brilliant.

 

[WorldNumberOne]

played too conservative...

which told me he wasnt totally confident in what he was doing..

which is amazing when you think he could of and should of still won..

 

[jordan17]

I loved it!!...someone else pumping their fist in his face!!

 

[JudgeWapner]

No. Played well. Putts didn't fall.

 

[RobFunk]

Tiger as at the age where stuff is a little bigger down there the voice is a little deeper, you have to start shaving and things like girls become interesting. So his mind may not 100% be on golf right now.

 

[oldmanTED]

No! He just got beat by a better player on that day. He couldn't sink a putt all day. It happens. Kudos to Yang

 

[billhill999]

He's almost 35, he ain't 24 anymore.

 

[GoSooners]

His putting woes aside, I think the old Tiger would have got out the 3 wood and gone for those pins. Especially when everybody started catching up to him. He used to put it in another gear when things got tight. He did just the opposite on Sunday. Not his game imo.

 

[terps1313]

He blew it on Saturday. The old Tiger extends the lead to 5+ going into Sunday. The new conservative Tiger played for pars on Saturday expecting everyone to implode. This just didn't happen and he got beat on Sunday because of it.

 

[Bruins4Life]

I don't think "choke" is in his vocabulary. You don't accomplish all that he has by choking. He simply didn't play well.

When he won all those other majors, did the rest of the field choke, or was Tiger just better? Nuff said.

 

[texansfan]

Woods didn't choke at all. Choking is what Van de Velde did in the British Open.

Let's give Yang credit, he made the shots and won the tournament, it wasn't given to him.

 

[Stabler12]

If anyone else had shot a 75 in the last round of a major to lose a 2-shot lead, what would you say? He choked.
