Rock singer Kid Rock is the latest to try to analyze Tiger Woods and his golf woes. The rockstar said in an interview with Rolling Stone that Woods is suffering from "Eminem and Axl Rose syndrome."

"Nice kid," Rock told Rolling Stone, referring to Woods. "A little bit of an Eminem and Axl Rose syndrome. Very reclusive, literal, and sometimes you feel a little bad for them. Sometimes they think the world's against them. You gotta loosen up, man. People are gonna talk s---. You just gotta enjoy it."

Golf analysts and Tour pros have tried to decide what Woods' problem is, but maybe its the advice of Kid Rock that will get him back on the course. Woods has not won on tour since 2013. He missed the cut at the Waste Management Phoenix Open at the end of January and then withdrew from the Farmers Insurance Open at Torrey Pines a week later.
