Rickie Fowler believes Tiger Woods still has plenty of time left at the top of professional golf, after the 82-time PGA Tour winner’s future was questioned ahead of this week’s Open Championship.
Heading into the final major of the year at Royal Troon, Colin Montgomerie suggested that it could well be time for Woods to call time on his playing career having struggled to replicate the form that made him arguably golf’s greatest ever player in years gone by.
He told The Times: “I hope people remember Tiger as Tiger was, the passion and the charismatic aura around him. There is none of that now. At Pinehurst, he did not seem to enjoy a single shot and you think ‘What the hell is he doing?’.
