Back in 2000, Tiger hit his 2-iron stinger off the tee very regularly. I'd be surprised if he hit his driver more often then than he does now. And in point of fact, his driving distance in 2009 is longer than his driving distance in 2000. And his accuracy is 7% lower. 7% of fairways is one per round. Hardly that big of a deal, in particular when you're as good as Tiger is from the rough.

The other thing Chamblee seems to miss is that courses are almost certainly set up tougher now than they were in 2000.

Oh, and JB, if a coach says something like that, that's one thing, but Chamblee isn't a coach is he? He's a player (former). Your comment about good players making bad coaches is apt and seems to agree with what JP said. So are you agreeing or disagreeing with JP?
