GAINESVILLE, Va. — There is a multitude of ways to dissect the struggles of Tiger Woods, but try this one on for size: We are closing in on the two-year anniversary of his last top 10 in a PGA Tour event.
Repeat, top 10. You know, the sort of finish he would have on a bad week, because from 1998 to 2012, Woods was top 10 in nearly 70 percent of his PGA Tour starts — 130 of 187. But in this summer of discontent, Woods can barely sniff a top 10, let alone a win. He hasn’t recorded a top 10 since a share of second at The Barclays in 2013.
