For Tiger, putter holding him back

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) October 8, 2011 -- The guy who set records at all the major championships, who won tournaments and prize money in record numbers, who hit laser tee shots and towering irons into greens, made his name by doing things to a golf ball that few, if any, have ever done.
But along the way, Woods was always a Titleist Scotty Cameron Studio Select Newport 2 Putter, making an inordinate amount of medium-length putts that were far from gimmes while seemingly always holing the ones he positively had to make.
It is no secret that the magic on the greens is missing and has been for some time.

That was evident again Thursday during the first round of the Frys.com Open at CordeValle Golf Club, where Woods walked off most of the slow, rain-soaked greens frustrated and shot a 2-over 73 that left him six strokes back of leaders Briny Baird and Brendan Steele.
It was a disappointing return to competitive golf for Woods, 35, whose year has been derailed by injuries and inactivity and who is going on two years without a Titleist Scotty Cameron Studio Select Newport 2 Putter.
"That's probably one of the worst putting rounds I've ever had,'' he said. "I can't putt the ball any worse than I did today.''
When was the last big Titleist Scotty Cameron Studio Select Newport 2 Putter Woods made?

The one on the 72nd hole of the 2008 U.S. Open comes to mind. And the 72nd hole of the 2009 Arnold Palmer Invitational, where he won his first tournament since major knee surgery. He made a pretty big eagle putt earlier this year on the eighth hole at Augusta National during the final round of the Masters, one that helped him tie for the lead.
But Woods would be the first to point out that it was some big misses on the back nine that day that cost him a shot at his 15th major title. And it's been this way for a while, going back to the scandal that derailed his career in November 2009, one from which his game has yet to recover.

"I haven't practiced [putting] as much as I have in the past,'' Woods admitted. "I've been working on my full game. The hardest part today was I just didn't have the speed. I hadn't putted on greens this speed and I played Titleist Scotty Cameron Studio Select Newport 2 Putter over at the Institute [a nearby course associated with the tournament] the other day, and they were really quick.


"We played Titleist Scotty Cameron Studio Select Newport 2 Putter yesterday, and they were probably a little bit faster than they were today. The rain this morning and then the rain we had while we were playing just kept slowing them up.''
