He was on top for a long time. He needs to make peace with himself.

I think you may be right. Something happened to him. It can be traced to his fall from Grace.

Apparently his strength was mainly mental. Once he lost his mental domination things fell apart.
I also heard that his swing caused some sort of physical problems. You cant abuse your body forever and expect it to last.

Perhaps it is the infinitesimally small difference of the weight of a wet oolie on your golf swing. Maybe he should ask his caddy for some lubricant when he has a tough shot and disappear in the woods for awhile.

Being awesome seems to be largely contingent on thinking you're awesome.
He probably hasn't been feeling very awesome since his world, and image, fell apart.

Yep. I heard with tennis as an example that the skills of everyone at the champion level is nearly the same. Physically they are maxed therefore the key difference between them is in most cases mental

Not jealousy. Just an observation
Whores were the secret to his success

His sense of invulnerability is gone. Once people realized he was beatable, he lost a lot of his edge.
Previously, if he was leading on the final day of the tournament, there was no way he was going to lose, so it was pointless to try and catch him.
Also, his physical edge has narrowed as other golfers have taken up his weight-lifting and physical regimes.
It is mostly mental, though. I'm sure it is tough to maintain that intensity when you have a billion dollars in the bank and spend half your week doing commercials, promotions, and other activities unrelated to golf.
If he wants to get his mojo back, he should cut out every other part of his life except for golf and live and breathe it like he did in his teens and 20s.

This is true of all sports, not just golf. The mental aspect of sports is as important, if not more important than the physical side. You have to believe you are better than everyone else if you are truly to be better.
