Is this Tiger at his best or was it the swing from the 2000 U.S. Open. It's an argument that no one could win. He's one of the greatest athletes that's ever played. But, Homer said that even the best are constantly changing their swings.

My point is to be careful with pictures of great golfers. When was the picture taken? What was the player trying to accomplish or change? I could take a picture of Tiger hitting a ball from under a bush. If that was the only picture that you ever saw of Tiger and you modeled you swing after that picture, you might not like the end result.

Homer gave us all the options and all of the consequences. Photos in magazines or videos might not.
I would say that both of you, yodaluke and hg, has a point. Tiger IS a great athlete and he HAS the will and determination.
I belive that Tiger will do what ever it takes to reach his golfing goals. Even if it means changing his now succesful swing to something else in the future. And he will overcome the problems when changing. Why? Because he is a great ATHLETE and has the WILL and DETERMINATION.

Now Yodasluke,
Could you, using TGM terms, describe his currently swing (pattern)?
