But this year Woods comes careering through the gates with dented fenders and wheels coming off. Tiger's been losing his temper and his putting stroke. He shed his agent, and he bagged his caddy, the cuddly Fluff Cowan. He does have one Tour win this season and a number of high finishes. By human standards, he's playing well...
