Tiger Woods Says His Back is Tight At Memorial




QUICK PEEK

Tiger would says his back tightened up at the Memorial tournament. He had to make changes to his swing to over come it.

I'VE GOT SOME TIME

As many of us know Tiger has had many struggles with his back. He had multiple surgeries that didn't seem to help him, but one in particular was a miracle in the making. Tiger had a back fusion surgery last April.

Tiger talked about how slow the recovery process was and that a repaired back is never 100%. He explained at the Memorial tournament, "I wasn't rotating very well today, back is tight, and just is what it is some days."

Tiger was 4 over par through the first seven holes. I made a couple of tweaks however, and made 4 birdies to end at even par.

He explained that its just aging and surgeries and he was going to have plenty of days like this. He said, "Just got to make the adjustments." He explained that before he couldn't make them simply because he didn't know which ones to make. However, he can now make them on the fly and it's going to be the new normal for him. He said his changes were largely to his set up.

He also explained that it was only tight. He was never in any pain. He said that he would take a tight back in a tournament over pain any day.
