Woods no longer in Top 10


Tiger Woods is known to be one of the best golf players in the world. His determination, mental toughness, and skill level has led him to many tournament victories and championships. In addition, his name has always been able to be seen in the top 10 best golfers in the world. However, for the first time in fourteen years, his name can no longer be found there. He has dropped to twelfth in the rankings. Although this may seem pretty good to the outside eye, for him, it is not. Woods has not been ranked below tenth since April of 1997. Why all the sudden is he not doing so well anymore? One reason could be the fact that he is battling two injuries right now; an injury to the left knee and a damaged Achilles tendon. Another reason could be all the issues that happened in Wood's past with his wife a year or so ago. What ever the reason may be, Woods is falling behind and new and better golfers are taking over. However, knowing Woods persistent and love for the game, sooner or later I am sure we will all see him back in the top ten and back to the great golfer he once was.
