British Open: kudos, mulligan

Mulligan will soon be on a plane, so I've decided to give credit where credit is due. Mulligan's usually filled with hot air (or at least some of us here think so), but sometimes even Mulligan can get lucky and be spot on. Well, here's what Mulligan said way back on March 7 of this year after Tiger (who before then was believed to be in a "slump" after going 0-10 in majors in 2004 and 2003) beat Phil at the Ford Championship:

"If Tiger's play yesterday is any indication of his play this year, he will win at least 2 majors. Yesterday may be the day that we look back and say: Tiger finally returned, not only to No. 1, but to his 2000 form (revamped by Hank Haney and Tiger). Phil, Ernie, Vijay, and Retief better be hitting the driving range right now."

I agree. The other guys better step their game up. I have a feeling we will be seeing a similar performance by Tiger at the PGA Championship. I also hope the media has toned down its criticisms on him AND Hank Haney.

Not sure why the media is always putting Tiger down. I mean, he is a grown man and capable of making his own decisions. Heck, alot of people probably thought him getting married would hurt his game. Well, let me know when that happens :)

I I wrote a similar article on the media and Tiger yesterday. The media just needs to backoff with their criticisms.
