As the title says, just wondering if he will ever win another major and/or be a dominant force he once was in golf after all that's gone on in his life?

One of Tigers key attributes in his game that made him a cut above the rest was his mental toughness, the old Tiger (Pre 2009) felt when he was on his game he was unbeatable. After all that has gone on it must have effected his mental strength...

Not only that he has had a lot of injuries, knee related in the last couple of years, that must be playing in the back of his mind. After watching him the last 18 months or so, i'm just not sure if he's been battered to much to ever recover and be the force he once was.

I know Tiger has won three PGA tourne's this year but i've watched him in all the majors the last few years and although he plays well in patches or for a round or 2, Tiger then seems to have a round where he falls apart which again comes back to mental toughness. The old tiger wouldn't fall apart like he does these days, you just didn't see it.

As we are half way round the 2012 Open Championship, with tiger again looking decent, i thought this would be a great time to ask the question to you guys.

Tiger himself could answer some of what i'm asking by going on to win this the 2012 Open Championship but i want to know what you guys think.

I think his best is behind him, but I do think he will win another major, but I dont think he will catch Jack Nicklaus' record of major wins of 19. I think he may get close, maybe even get to 19 himself, but I think he wont ever get back to what he was pre 2009.
 
Hes getting on now, hes what 36 i think??. Last year he had an atrocious season where he dropped out of the top 10 but seems like this year hes back to his best somewhat...hes worked his way up to 4th.

Personally like shawsy, i think his best is behind him but i still think hes a major force to be reckoned with. I do like him although a lot of people fuind him arrogant, stuck up and generally an odious sort of guy after his 'porn star' escapades a few yrs ago.

Put it this way, golf would be boring without Tiger imho. And since him no one and i mean no one has been able to dominate golf to the extent he did.

Hope he wins the Open and gets back to being number 1...much like Federer who is now number 1 after winning Wimbeldon a few weeks back.
