Check in every week for the unfiltered opinions of our writers and editors and join the conversation by tweeting us @golf_com.
1. His chipping prowess aside, Tiger Woods had an uninspiring performance at Torrey Pines, shooting 76-72 and missing the cut by four shots. Now he's headed overseas for the Dubai Desert Classic. What constitutes a good week?
Josh Sens, contributing writer, This is the question that keeps cropping up through swing changes and surgeries and assorted other struggles. The one constant, of course, is that we're talking about Tiger Woods. By the standards he set for himself — never mind the expectations of the multitudes — a good week is a win. Just hoping to make the weekend without an injury doesn't cut it, for him or his fans. In the meantime, though, hitting a few more fairways wouldn't hurt.
Shane Bacon, golf analyst, Fox Sports (@shanebacon): Tiger is so far from contending with his current game that I say making the cut is a great week for Woods. Tiger can say he shows up to win, but that golf swing and two-way miss isn't winning anything right now. Get to the weekend, play in tournament conditions for four days and reassess, but a made cut is a win right now for Tiger Woods.
