According to Peter Alliss, a former Ryder Cup player and best-known commentator on the game for more than 30 years, if Tiger woods leave golf for next six months, he will disappear in golf world forever. Then what is the future of Tiger Woods after being in "dreadful turmoil".

 

"I don't envy anybody involved in this – it's all very horrid and very public," the 78-year-old said on the BBC website.

 

"It must be remembered that this is the time of the year when he has in the past taken time off.

 

"He's very seldom ever played in tournaments in the month of January or February – occasionally he's popped out and played one or two – but usually Tiger's year begins in earnest about the middle of March

 

"But, if he doesn't play for the first six months of next year, then he might have decided he's come to the end of the road.

 

"He's going to have to put up with a lot of nonsense and ridicule and comment for the next 20 to 30 years and it depends how well he tackles that.

 

"He's in a very, nasty awkward position of his own making, I'm afraid.

 

"He's giving himself breathing space.

 

"If we learn come the end of February that he's not going to play in The Masters at Augusta in April and maybe not in our Open Championship in July then it's getting very serious.

 

"Then you have to wonder about all sorts of things that we're not privy to – his state of mind, whether he wants to continue, whether he's thinking of early retirement.

 

"All sorts of things come into the equation. How his marriage is going, what his home front is looking like."

 

Alliss continued: "He's got very few friends in my opinion. Very few people have got into the inner sanctum, so nobody really knows him.

 

"Every psychiatrist and psychologist are jumping out of the trees saying he should do this, he should do that, but Tiger's got to do it for himself.

 

"Tiger, if he decides not to play, will be a tremendous loss to the game because it's a proven fact that he's put people on the gate, there have been more stories written and more photos taken.

 

"He's a wonderfully gifted player. But that's happened before – we've had wonderfully gifted players before who have not got into this sort of situation, but they have passed through time."

 

Former women's world No 1 Annika Sorenstam, who used to exchange text messages with Woods whenever either won a major, has commented too.

 

Sorenstam, now retired and a mother, said: "It's tragic. I think this whole thing is tragic.

 

"I am in touch with his wife Elin now and then. Me and my husband Mike have been out dining with Elin and Tiger on a few occasions. Perhaps it won't happen as often now."
