Just a quick note today: Tiger won't be teeing it up at the Honda Classic after all. That's according to golfdigest.com. Over at golf.com they confirmed that the word came down from both tournament officials and Tiger's agent.
Of course this is no big surprise to anybody since Tiger said he wouldn't be playing again until his game was in better shape and nobody expected him to fix it in a couple of weeks.
Personally, I'm glad Tiger's taking a little time off so he can work on things at his own speed. I suspect he'll actually make faster progress that way. But it does mean he won't qualify for the next WGC (the Cadillac Championship at Doral), so his next most likely appearance -- assuming he gets his game in shape by then -- will be Arnold Palmer's event on March 19.
And I'll be surprised if he doesn't squeeze in some practice rounds at Augusta, just to see if his game works there. You know that's what he's really focusing on.
