Tiger Woods, Subjecting Himself to Blogger?

Tiger Woods has dominated at Augusta National, St. Andrews Golf Links, and now his mother's basement?

Featured on PGATour.com, Tiger has started a blog and in his first installment discusses everything from the Anthony Kim win at his event and his one-legged U.S. Open victory to what he's going to miss from being a spectator the rest of the season.
The thing I'll miss most about sitting out the rest of the season is not being in the fight. Everybody knows how much I love to compete. I was really looking forward to playing in the British Open at Royal Birkdale, where I finished third in 1998, and trying to defend my title in the PGA Championship at Oakland Hills.
The best from the blog is his detailed explanation of the pain during those final days at Torrey Pines. Never one to divulge information, Tiger is fairly open about the struggle he endured that U.S. Open week.

When I walked, my knee throbbed, but it wasn't a shooting pain. Most of the pain came when I swung the club. Certain shots I couldn't lean forward -- that was the frustrating part.

I didn't really have a go-to shot because I wasn't sure where the pain was coming from. I hit a 40-yard pitch shot and felt I was going to fall over. Saturday was pretty bad, but Sunday was worse.

You also have to love how much he wants to be involved in the AT&T National even when he can't be there to host the event.
As for me, it was tough watching the AT&T National on television. It's my tournament and I felt disappointed I couldn't be there. I'm sure I drove our staff crazy with all my calls and text messages, but I wanted to stay as involved as possible.
I'd go out on a limb and say Tiger's one of those guys that can text message really fast.

Anyway, Tiger says he's going to be "checking in when he can" so hopefully this will be a regular thing. Thanks Mr. Woods, because of you every blogger in the world just moved up a karate belt color on the coolness scale.
