"If he’s not getting what he needs from Haney then he’ll move on, just as he did in dumping Butch."

I think someone with the initials A.S. is going to be hearing from Hank Haney!

After the final round Woods laid all the blame on his putting, which isn’t really Haney’s department. It will be interesting to see what happens with them. Tiger turned to Haney after getting skunked in the majors in 2003. Going oh-fer-’09 will certainly lead to another period of self-examination. Bottom line is Tiger has won the Masters with three different swings. He can be dominant without a swing coach, but he’s a tinkerer who needs to be working on something to stay engaged. If he’s not getting what he needs from Haney then he’ll move on, just as he did in dumping Butch. The name I keep hearing as a would-be successor is Dale Lynch, the low-key Aussie who has worked with Geoff Ogilvy, among many others. But that's just press room conjecture, so take it for what it's worth, which isn't much.

Except for a few text messages.
