Golf Update: Where is Tiger Woods?
Where is Tiger Woods nowadays? Sources tell us that he has moved to a new luxury apartment in Manhattan and he is found on the course of TPC Boston practicing with his coach for the payoff series.
TPC Boston is in no hurry to host the Deutsche Bank Championship until Wednesday but Tiger seems to be running on the course, as he is standing on the 65 spot of the FedEx Cup points and he requires a finish in top 70 to move forward.
The upcoming playoff series is the BMW Championship, which is taking place next week. Tiger realizes that the next four days will be very crucial, therefore one will find him hitting the ball for 45 minutes on the course and then on the small practicing area with a bucket of balls. Another person is seen next to him and that is his new coach Sean Foley, who is helping him with the swings.
According to the media reports, Tiger Woods is trying to rediscover his game after the Epic drama of his divorce ended last month. Now is the time that he should focus all his attention on one thing and that is to improve his putting and assessment of what shot to play and how to play? Tiger is finally standing at a modest spot and he is happy that he has achieved, despite all the havoc going in his life. He is 62 spots behind Martin Laird and 64 shots behind the Barclay runners up Matt Kuchar.
As for Tiger’s putting, he is not confident about it but his statement in front of the media at the end of the final round gives a sigh of hope that he might perform better. Tiger said, "If I would have putted like I did today in the middle two rounds, I would be right up there.” Tiger posted a 67 and a finish at the twelfth position in the last event.
Moving forward to his expected performance at the course of TPC Boston; bettors are predicting that this time Tiger Woods will deliver three good rounds. The reason behind this prediction is his past trends that have been showing a gradual increase in number of good rounds starting from the Whistling Straits, where he posted a 69 in the third round and died after that. Later he gave two rounds of under par at the Barclays, therefore this time the number is three. Moreover, Tiger Woods has once won on this course and twice he finished second which is yet another card that goes in his favour.
Indeed, it will and Tiger Wsoods’ will fall no worse than the 54th place, which will help him proceed to Chicago, where the BMW championship will take place. After that, it is the tour championship and then finally the Ryder cup but again to qualify the last major, Tiger needs to finish in top eight.
As for the players who are interested in making the cut to the next tournament, which is the second tournament of the four-week FedEx Cup playoffs, they have to fall in top 60s of the FedEx standings. Or else they will be automatically washed away into the Fall Series events, which are due with the Viking Classic starting from the 30th September making way to the 3rd of October, 2010. Lastly, the ones who will survive the playoffs will automatically qualify the four majors that will take place in 2011.
This is the answer to the question put forward that where is the controversial golfing legend, Tiger Woods. For those who still don’t have a clue, then Tiger Woods is getting ready for the Deutsche Bank Championship, which is going to start next Wednesday at TPC Boston. Tiger need s a top 70 finish to proceed to the next level and if he gets it, then he will get the promised Wild card from Captain, Corey Pavin.
