The Confidence fix is the only one i know.
Note: you will have to do the confidence fix for all players you are playing with in TW08.
So when you switch your player in TW08, then you will have to do the confidence folder fix on that player too.

You probably already did it, but i post the confidence folder fix, just in case:

When you played some courses you will see the loading times between holes are increasing, the game will become slower and slower.
Do next steps to solve the problem:

1) On desktop you will see the folder My Documents. Open this folder.
( when you are using Vista or Win7 or win8: on desktop look for folder: User (or username).....inside you will find: Documents )
2) Inside look for Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2008. Open this folder and then open the folder Career
3) Inside Career open the folder Players. Inside this folder, look for your playersname folder and open it.
4) Open the folder Confidence.
5) Inside you will find these files: Hole Type.tcn and Shot Type.tcn. delete both files.
6) Important step here! Restart the TW08 game and play 1 hole on any stock course, then close TW08 game.
7) Go back to same Confidence folder and you will see both files are regenerated: but now they are very small in size. Now right click the Hole Type.tcn file and choose Properties. Check the box next to Read Only and click OK.
Now do the same thing for the Shot Type.tcn file.

Sounds like one of 3 issues:
1. You applied the confidence fix only after playing with your golfer for a great deal of time, meaning the file is already too large and is causing the problem.
2. You have an old CPU that cannot handle the game.
3. You have junk programs stealing memory, and you need to either disable them and/or clean up or possibly reformat your PC.
