Masters revealing that old habits die hard for Tiger Woods

It was only a matter of time, it seems, until Tiger Woods started to let loose after hitting a less-than-satisfactory shot.

After pulling his tee shot a little on the par-3 sixth on Saturday at the Masters, and not finding the right level of the green, Woods blurted out, “Tiger Woods… you suck,” which was followed by the breaking of one of the ten commandments. He wound up bogeying the hole.

Three holes earlier, after a birdie putt fell in on the last roll, we saw the familiar fist pump, but maybe not quite as animated as before.

My guess is Tiger may be able to tone it down, but eliminating the outbursts that he admits have been disrespectful to the game will be impossible. It’s just not in his DNA.

Perhaps a little more meditation would help.
