Follow @golfcentraldocThe Argument Against Woods
Letâs the bad stuff out of the way first. Tiger was Majorless this season and will be remembered for his role in four rules incidents.
- Moved vines to improve ball condition in Abu Dhabi.
- Dropped from wrong place at The Masters but was saved by the Green Jackets would invoked some rusty old rule to keep him in the tournament. Many say that if it had happened Nicklaus he would have withdrawn.
- Dropped ball 100 yards forward of where he should have at The Players. No extra penalty and won tournament.
- Ball oscillation at BMW Championship.
The Argument For Woods
- For Tiger is the fact that he re-emerged as a regular winner on the PGA Tour winning five times. Heâs also firmly back as World No. 1.
- As well as the Farmers and Arnieâs event Tiger won two WGC events, the Cadillac and Bridgestone and the âfifthâ Major, The Players.
- His season earnings of just over $8.5 million are unmatched by any other player and he finished second in scoring average for the season.
- He may not have won a Major in 2013 but Woods did tie fourth at The Masters and tie sixth at The Open.
So do I think Tiger Woods should win Player Of The Year? Hell yes!
Should he get a sportsmanship award? Hell No!
