Recently Tiger has been roaring, dominating the PGA as if he was invincible. First it was the British Open, then the Buick Open followed by the PGA Championship , The Bridgestone Invitational and finally the Deutsche Bank Championship . What?s going on here? Where is every one else? It?s not as if Tiger is first and the same other guy is second every week. It?s always someone new. So what is it?
Let?s look at other sports, if this type of thing was going on another sport people would begin to suspect foul play. So let?s look at Tiger, is he cheating? ? I think so? says Rafael Moret, CSCS, owner of MiamiGolfFitness.com. ? I remember him exiting the first round of the World Match Play tournament a few weeks ago and what he said during the interview led me to believe that he in fact is cheating? Tiger said ?Well, I think I?ll go workout now.?
?I think I?ll go workout now? what kind of golfer says that. Especially after exiting in the first round of a tournament. Shouldn?t he be on his way to the range to hit some balls? Shouldn?t he been on his way to dinner and to relax after long golf day? Maybe he should have been complaining that something went wrong with the course or his equipment.
Well the truth of the matter is this, Tiger is guilty of cheating. He has more mental determination to condition himself as a superior athlete than anyone else on the course and that is an unfair advantage. While everyone else is sleeping, Tiger is out running. While the other guys are having lunch, Tiger is in the Gym. While the other guys are driving to the range, Tiger has finished playing a practice round.
?Developing consistency in your performance enhancing exercise routine is the key to success? says Rafael. You can not expect Tiger like results with bad workout habits and an inferior exercise program. ?Developing sports specific conditioning programs is what helps athletes condition themselves for their sport. So you can not expect great results from a workout routine for a bodybuilder you cut out of a magazine?.
If Tiger continues to strive for greater results and pushing himself to become better, there will be no stopping him. Every time a tournament starts, players from all over the world will be coming playing for second place. Every week we will be watching to see who will fall to Tiger next!
