“Why do we fall?” “So that we might learn to pick ourselves up.” Perhaps Ana Ivanovic has seen Batman Begins, and if she has, she can use that scene as solace to her year-and-a-half long slump, for she needs to find a way to pick herself up. The former world No. 1 and French Open champion, who already had a strong following due to her friendly demeanor, unpretentious good looks,...

I don’t necessarily know what Tiger Woods is going to say tomorrow, but I have an idea. Regardless, it doesn’t really matter. Frankly, I’m over it. Whatever closure this story deserves was established the second it drifted from the grasp of the mainstream media, gossip magazines, and the vastness of the blogosphere. Alas, we are a nation that lusts after stories of the comeback variety. And without...

We knew this day would come at some point. Tiger couldn’t return to the PGA Tour without first having to face the public. On Friday morning at 11am EST Tiger Woods will sit in front of a microphone, in front of a few select media outlets that he invited, and will tell the world what we’ve long known. Not to mention he’ll do so on his terms, not answering a single question. A statement,...

If Tiger Woods really wants to make amends for the people he’s hurt and let down with his behavior, he should speak from the heart and not from some antiseptic, contrived piece of paper probably scripted by one of his handlers. As Bleacher Report’s own Editor-in-Chief Joe Yanarella told me, “If it reads anything like A-Rod’s forced, scripted statement that was awkward, uncomfortable,...

Tiger Woods will make his much-anticipated return to the spotlight when he addresses the fans and media during a press conference scheduled for Friday at PGA Headquarters. Woods will undoubtedly apologize for his “transgressions” to his family, fans, the PGA Tour, and his sponsors (including those who stuck with him and those who decided to part ways). The simple fact is that this press...

Evidently, the Golf Writers Association of America does not want to take part in Tiger’s recovery and road back to playing on the PGA TOUR. Wasn’t it yesterday that you were giving an award to Tiger Woods? What, my dear Lord, is going on in this country? You have government buying private enterprises converting General Motors to “Congressional Motors.” Now Tiger...

Charles Darwin must have been imagining the Super Bowl when he devised his theory on survival of the fittest. Only the strong make it to the finish line, and only the most fearless claw their way to the top, reigning over inferiors. The most colorful, the most aggressive, and the most boastful are the ones we wish to follow as fans. They are special, attracting attention for their bravura. That,...

Yes, we’ve all seen Tiger Woods shed a few tears. Winning that first Masters got to him, as Earl his dad, embraced him at the final hole. Tiger cried when Earl died. Prima facie evidence that he is perhaps human. But don’t look for any tears Friday morning when The Invisible Man shows up for a STATEMENT CONFERENCE at PGA Tour headquarters in the affluent confines of Ponte Vedre next door...

The wait is over. Or is it? Funny thing happened since my last article on Eldrick. I talked to many a person about what exactly Tiger should say when he decides to come clean. Too bad no one expects the press conference to be any sort of mea-culpa. In fact, there will be no questions even taken by Tiger at the conclusion. Not really what I wanted to see, but now completely what I expect after debating...

Bleacher Report has secretely obtained an advance copy of Tiger Wood’s prepared statement, which he will give Friday at 11 a.m. from the Professional Golfers Association’s headquarters in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla. Some of the more, dare we say, “sexy” comments from Tiger include the following: On alleged use of performance enhancing drugs: “Of course I used ’em....
