What are the chances that Tiger sits out the whole 2010 season?

Question

Most pundits seem to think he'll be back sometime this year, but is it really such a foregone conclusion?

Answer 1

The conventional wisdom is that Woods will return sooner rather than later because breaking Jack Nicklaus' record haul of 18 majors is driving him to do so. But some pundits have also suggested that even before the scandal broke, Tiger didn't look like he was having fun on the golf course - one American journalist even hypothesised that Woods was sick of playing golf, which might make a weird kind of sense, when you think about it - after all, it's been Woods obsession for his entire life. With that in mind, he could feel like he needs a long, long break, so taking the entire 2010 season off might not be out of the question. If that happens, you can bet the US PGA Tour will be devastated.
