Tiger Can See A Geezer Winning A Major; Maybe Even His Ownself
/Tiger Woods appeared on 106.7 The Fan's The Sports Junkies to promote the AT&T National and made some interesting comments about career longevity, documented by Deadspin. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I've always thought he gave the impression of not wanting to play well into his forties, so this came as a pleasant surprise.
Looking down the road, do you think you can keep winning tournaments into your 50s?:
"Absolutely, 100 percent agree with that. It just has to be on the right golf course. It can't be, at that age - well, by the time I'm at that age, it'll be some golf courses over 8,000 yards. It's probably not going to be at one of those; it's probably going to be at a shorter golf course like you'd find at a British Open. Tom [Watson], at Turnberry, it was like the perfect Open. It was howling, it was a golf course he had won on and knew how to play and it was playing very quick. … You can certainly see a certain player playing into their 50s and being successful on a certain venue. You can't do it on all venues, there's no doubt. Some ballparks are just too big."
