Golf is far more mental than physical.
Tiger's mind is neither in balance nor focused on golf.
Tiger has been crippled by his shame.
He worked on constructing a personal and public image for his entire life. Tiger presented himself as a safe, bland, family-oriented, being beyond stereotypes and racial profiling type of man. Yet he has been exposed as a sleazy, sex-crazed, white woman lusting, cheater. He sees himself as a fraud. He knows that many other folks view him as a fraud. Dude has lost his foundation.
At first, Tiger Woods hid away. Now Eldrick tiger Woods is lost and gone.
Woods will only regain his golf game if he finds a different identity.
He has to man up to get beyond his situation. What man is going to stand up. The CAC? The Black? The Asian? The Indian? Who or what is his support system.
Tiger is not a player. Tiger ain't no hustla. He can't dust off his collar and move on.
Tiger was a winner because he couldn't stomach losing. That's how his daddy raised him. This scandal was a definite lost that was beyond his control. Tiger is lost and will be lost until he releases his shame and finds a new identity.
