tiger pulls out of tour championships`

this is my first post so be kind lol , i just want to hear some peoples thoughts on tiger( and phil as well ) pulling out of the tour championship , i see tiger has cited being physically and mentally worn out after playing 6 out of the last 7 weeks , poor snookums , i can understand him pulling out of the lesser tournaments to keep himself fresh but this is what they call the 5th major , people have bought tickets and sponsors have been signed up on the basis he was going to play , i know he does not need the money etc but he only plays half the year now and after this tournament there is bugger all golf before they break for the christmas hiatus , i just feel these guys are making so much money that should all the big names start picking and choosing certain tournaments then what has happened here in australia with our tour dying a slow death will happen in the states because sponsors and fans will look elsewhere to spend their money ,i personally would hate to see this happen as i love to watch these guys play , i would really appreciate honest and intelligent posts not crap or swearing and stuff or i will just delete them , hopefully this could be a good forum , thanks for reading
