"It's hard to win anything when you're reconstructing your golf swing and your personal conduct at the same time. It's like trying to change clothes in an airplane bathroom."

After sitting in on captivating press conferences by Trevino, Watson and Baker-Finch, Tiger's Wednesday performance at Doral was particularly painful to get through. But the writers are paid the big bucks to find something compelling in his remarks and found a few things worth writing about. (Steve Elling's take on Tiger's short game overhaul was already noted here.)

Doug Ferguson led with the explanation of why Tiger doesn't play more events.

“Because I have a family. I’m divorced,” Woods replied solemnly. “If you’ve been divorced with kids, then you would understand.”

It spoke to a personal life that remains as much a work in progress as his golf swing.

There was speculation after Woods lost in the first round of the Match Play Championship that he would play the Honda Classic, especially since he is close to moving to south Florida. But that was his time with his 3½-year-old daughter and 1-year-old son as part of the “shared parenting” with ex-wife Elin. There are no plans to play next week at Innisbrook, either.

Woods can’t expect any sympathy for a situation he created through serial adultery. Even so, his playing schedule reflects that he’s having to change more than his swing.

Gene Wojciechowski's take speaks for itself:

"I have to change everything," Woods said Wednesday.

He was discussing the third major swing change of his career, but it could have been about his life, too. He has taken a lift, clean and replace on both.

It's hard to win anything when you're reconstructing your golf swing and your personal conduct at the same time. It's like trying to change clothes in an airplane bathroom.

Robert Lusetich included this response from Tiger to Johnny Miller's criticisms.

But others, including Johnny Miller, aren’t so sure.

Miller two weeks ago likened Woods’ fall from grace to that of Mike Tyson. It was a tad over the top, but Miller’s not alone in thinking that Woods is done.

Woods heard the analogy.

Wish you could be Tiger Woods? He's not exactly worried about yard space. See photos of his new home.

He’s never been a fan of Miller’s, anyway.

“I don’t think I’m as big as he is,” Woods said Wednesday, referring to Tyson.

“That’s Johnny being Johnny.

“Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and he has his, which is a lot.”
