Hank V. Tiger, The Recap!

Bob Harig files a nice recap of last week's not-so-subtle back and forth between Tiger Woods and "last coach" Hank Haney.

I had not realized Tiger invoked the coach reference, which was intriguing since Woods has rarely even wanted to suggest a coach has much to do with his success.

You may recall that Haney said Woods has overdone the gym time of late, Woods referenced bad habits from his last coach, and then it got fun. 

Harig writes:

And then Friday after Woods drove it even worse: "I've been hitting hot pulls and every one of those things has some serious heat on it, which is nice, but I just need to get it online. I would rather hit the hot pull than the big flame-out, crop duster to the right. The hot pull is fine because it's easy to fix; it's getting down there and just have to aim it a little bit more."

Haney has since made several references to the "hot pull" and "crop duster" comments on Twitter as he is a prolific user of the social media site and often answers fans' questions about their golf swings (commenting on photos) as well as Woods.

Harig concludes:

As for Woods, perhaps it was said in moments of frustration, but it is strange that he would go back to the Haney excuse. He has been working with Sean Foley for 3½ years and has won eight times, more than any other player in the world, in the past two seasons.
