Tiger Woods says he will 'never' play golf again full time

12. Shit happens

when you make poor decisions. Drug addiction, however, is something other than a "poor decision". Often it's an attempt at self-medication for some kind of mental problem, whether depression, impostor syndrome, or whatever. I have my suspicions that "golden boys" like Tiger may suffer from something like impostor syndrome sometimes. I've certainly seen some who do.

One person who needs to be commended is former NFL QB Alex Smith. He reached out to Tiger during his recovery. Having suffered a similar gruesome injury and nearly losing his leg also, he was able to offer the kind of support only someone who had gone through the same thing could. I suspect he was a great source of help for Tiger.
