Johnny Miller showed why he is the best, most brutally candid golf analyst yesterday with his comments on Tiger Woods.
Woods, as most people might know, talked early in the season about his pursuit of the Grand Slam.
Miller must have been thinking what I and a million other golf fans were thinking.
Isn't it a little early to be making such a bold prediction? Even if it's Tiger Woods doing the talking?
"I'm not taking a slam at Tiger, but I think the Grand Slam is something you start thinking about on the first of August, after you've won the three other ones," Miller said during a conference call with the media.
Woods, of course, finished second at The Masters, dashing any hopes of a Grand Slam.
Miller also talked about how convenient it is that Woods is skipping The Players Championship for arthroscopic knee surgery, pointing out his less than sterling history at the TPC.
You'd think Woods might have waited a bit for the surgery, opting to play the tournament with the year's strongest field.
Woods is so dominant, most people -- particularly in the media -- are petrified of saying anything that might be construed as criticism. Miller isn't.
