I really did not see Tiger as artificial. I actually thought he sounded extremely contrite. Yes he was reading something that he undoubtedly got a lot of help in writing (perhaps he didn't even write a word), but he genuinely sounded as though he regretted his behavior. I absolutely did not expect the Tiger robot to get choked up, perhaps it is a new setting on the upgraded model.

In the interest of full disclosure, I didn't plan on watching the press conference, and I actually watched it a few hours later on youtube after hearing that he didn't sound awful. I was pleasantly surprised, particularly what I perceived as a heartfelt close--where he essentially said he was very grateful for people believing in him before, and he hopes that people can find the space in their heart to believe in him again. He may not have written it, but he sounded very sincere to me.

I think he really does understand that he will never be looked at the same way again. And wants sincerely to become the person we thought he was. As far as his comment that it isn't what you achieve, but what you overcome . . . I can't get behind that statement. I found it a bit ridiculous, seemingly suggesting that the pain and suffering he put his family through can put HIM in a position to be more victorious in life. From here he should be thinking about becoming a good person, not about grandiosity--perhaps the very thing that was his undoing.

The reason you can't sustain the lag is because you are so eager to make the club move fast (a reaction to the intent of "hitting it far"). So on a full shot you throw it away too early, which doesn't happen for your short chip. (bts)
