PGA 2010 without Tiger Woods

The PGA Tour's is already going in Hawaii without the greatest Tiger Woods.
"At the moment, he's hiding, which I don't think is the right way to go about it. I think we need to see him come out here and apologize," says golfer Retief Goosen.
His 14 majors and 71 PGA tour wins have ensured that Tiger has held 
the Number One position for the most consecutive weeks and for the greatest total number of weeks and he still enjoys a healthy 6 point lead over his nearest rival on the rankings table. It's a massive void, but players young and old will attempt to fill it in the coming weeks - while he is away.
"I think there is an opportunity for a handful of guys who have aspirations to be Number One. This might be a time when it's a lot more possible than it has been before," says golfer Geoff Ogilvy.
PGA Tour Commissioner Tim Finchem seems very optimistic for this year with or without Tiger Woods.
“We are going to be successful in ’10,” said Finchem, adding he had not spoken to Woods and did not know when Woods would resume playing golf. “If Tiger is out for a couple of months or eight months or a year, we’re going to have a successful year.
“It won’t be at the same levels without our No. 1 player, there’s no question about that. No sport would be at the same level without its No. 1 player. But I think the doom and gloom needs to go away, and, frankly, it’s misleading to our fans.”
Finchem’s defense of Woods coincided with indications that the sports media have already separated Woods’s on-course prowess from his off-course predilections. Woods was voted male player of the year by the Golf Writers Association of America by an overwhelming margin over Steve Stricker, with most ballots returned after the scandal erupted.

Golfer Jerry Kelly says, "He is not the sport. Golf will move on. When Tiger Woods  retires, no matter if it's tomorrow or if it's 10 years or 20 years from now, the game of golf will have it's stars. The game of golf will survive."

Though, he isn't likely to make a hasty comeback to save his throne, whenever he comes back, it clearly promises to be one of the sports stories of the year
