Tiger Woods takes a break from golf

I HOPE Tiger Woods does not take a long break from golf – as it would be a big loss to the game.

Over the last few weeks, as the alleged affairs he has had have been revealed, some people have said that Tiger is now less boring.

I would disagree with that, as the man has brought so much excitement to so many people and is far from boring.

And I am sure many youngsters have wanted to learn the game after watching him in person, or on television.

In 2010 Tiger has an excellent chance to add to the 14 majors he has already collected and has an opportunity to try and catch Jack Nicklaus’s record of 18.

The Masters will be played in April – and this is an event that Tiger has won four times, although the last time was in 2005.

Then The US Open will be staged at Pebble Beach, again Tiger has won here last time the major was played on the famous course.

In July The Open will return to St Andrews and Tiger has won here twice before.

I am sure Tiger will be back to play in these events as I think these are some of his favourite venues. If he doesn’t, then the game of golf will be missing one of its greatest players.
