I think the opposite. There are few big events in golf and the injury issues have scared Tiger enough that he knows to take it easy except for the Majors.

I meant in this particular Masters tournament. He was the only player to reach -14 and one of two to reach -13.

Regarding the discussion that he was somehow lucky to win.

Yeah.. some of the others in contention did this or that late, diminishing their chances. Yadda yadda.. everyone had missed opportunities throughout the week.

We'll see... I only remember him really swinging out of his shoes or really torque his body once or twice in the Masters. One was in a bunker on, I believe, the eighth hole, where he needed to get a lofted club over the lip and advance it far enough to be up a hill and to be able to see the green. I believe the other was one of his recovery shots through the window in the trees, but I can't recall if it was 14 on Thurs/Fri or 11 on Sunday.

The major I'd worry about him doing that is more in the US Open with the deep rough, so we'll see what happens at Pebble. They could also set up Bethpage with really deep rough for the PGA. Hopefully he takes his medicine and doesn't put his body at risk, at least not until Sunday.

He also played too much last year, which shouldn't be an issue this year. I'd be shocked if his schedule isn't every other week (or lighter) at this point, which is what he's done so far, with the exception of Genesis-WGC... That'd give him:

Two Weeks Off
Wells Fargo (Quail Hollow)
Week Off
PGA
Week Off
Memorial
Week Off
US Open
???
Open Championship

There are four events in between the US Open and the Open Championship. Assuming he doesn't want to play the week after the US Open or the week before the British, he could play either the Rocket Mortgage Classic at Detroit Golf Club June 27-30, or the 3M Open at TPC Twin Cities July 4-7.

He could also go over a week early and play the Scottish Open as his warmup event, but then he has to play two weeks in a row. I wouldn't be surprised if he just skips everything in between the US Open and British Open.

At any rate, he'll likely end up playing a few less tournaments this year, and spacing them out better.

I say no significant injury this year, not a high finish at Bethpage, a great run at winning Pebble that gets there, no opinion on British ... and wins next years Masters. That would be 17 as of next April.

I tried to bet him to catch Jack with the same guy I bet him to win a major again with when he was 700-somehting in the world ... but he wouldn't take it. Maybe I'll find it somewhere but that's way out there settle up potentially.

Biggest risk imo is if US Open is set up with the usual deep rough. If he hits enough shots into the deep ****, his risk of injury increases dramatically as he aggressively tries to dig out of it.

edit: slow pony. cuserounder covered that.

James Adducci’s feel-good story isn’t entirely feel-good.

The 39-year-old Wisconsin daytrader who became a viral sensation after*winning $1.2 million betting on Tiger Woods*at the Masters has a checkered past that includes multiple domestic violence convictions,*according to USA Today.

Adducci has pleaded guilty 12 times since 2006 and has spent 30 days in jail following a second OWI arrest in January 2015. His rap sheet includes four guilty pleas to misdemeanor domestic abuse, including two in June 2009. He was arrested on suspicion of domestic abuse three times, most recently in May of 2017, though charges were dismissed or changed to lower-level misdemeanors.

“(The victim) stated James was going to strike her and had his hand back in a threatening posture,” a November 2015 incident report reads. The same complainant told police in 2017 that “James had shoved her placing both hands on her chest and pushing her backward.”
Adducci, who claimed he had $25,000 of debt leading up to his $85,000 gamble on Woods, spoke to multiple outlets in the wake of his windfall, though he seemed less thrilled to answer USA Today’s questions about his past — including ones about there being no record of him being married, despite mentioning his wife in an interview with Golf Digest.

“Everyone and their brother can go online and look up anything they want, and I don’t give a (expletive),” Adducci said. “Obviously, I had $85,000 to place toward a bet. I have the ability to make $1.2 million. When was the last time you did that? If you want to get personal, who the hell are you to call me and think you have anything to ask me about anything?”

Other than the rare runaway 7 stroke win, this describes like literally every single golf tournament.

Only when Tiger wins, everyone loses their **** about pretty standard golf miscues by others.

The haters have no choice but to shift goal posts ect. Not much left for haters to hold on to after he has won a major.

What makes it even funnier to me is how the argument basically boils down to "Tiger wouldn't have won if others didn't make more mistakes than he did"

No ****! really?

I really want to put money down at the supposed 1000-1 for Tiger to win the grand slam. Is there a reputable site or do I need to drive to Vegas? (PM me the site if that's against the forum rules)

Bovada has him at 50-1 to win all 4



Bookmaker has him at 152-1



i doubt any books are offering 1000-1 most of them have so much exposure to any tiger related bet that they would be risking going bankrupt if it ever hit. They all got crushed last week.

Yeah I thought 1000-1 sounded ridiculous. I was guessing 100-1. Not worth driving to Vegas for that

Btw just out of curiosity - let's say I got in at 1000-1 for the grand slam before the Masters - then Tiger wins the first 3. Is there any way to take the field in The Open as a hedge?

Yep you are much better off just betting him to win each individual major. He is 10-1 to win the PGA if he wins that you let it ride on the us open at ~ 7-1 then you let that ride on the Open Championship at ~ 4.5-1 that gives you around 300x return.

1000-1 would be a great bet because by the time he reaches the fourth major his odds to win would drop so much that you could easily hedge out of it.

Yeah, 1000:1 does not pass the smell test. I could see maybe 250:1 at Pinnacle or some online book. But B&M is probably 150:1 tops. I can believe 1000:1 prior to Masters, though.

Also, 10:1 x 7:1 x 4.5:1 parlay pays 483:1. But I doubt Tiger would be much over 3:1 at the British, the hysteria would be incredible.
