Tiger Woods (Offical Thread)

I heard some news on the radio that some (or the majority) of the females that have come out were before Tiger's marriage to Elin. He definitely cheated on her with at least 1 girl (given the voicemail) but people thinking that he was having 7 women during his marriage are being mislead.

Now if 7 women during his marriage turns into, say, 7 women over the course of a 7 year span (since he became an ultra star), then that changes things dramatically.

Great point, and I agree. No penalty strokes for anything he may have done during a practice round.

Some will argue that infidelity is infidelity. I would submit that there is a difference between committing an indiscretion under unknown circumstances and a total disregard for one's marriage and disrespect for one's spouse.

You can't overdry, for the same reason you can't overwet. Once something is wet, it's wet. Same thing with death. Once you die, you're dead, right?

Let's say you drop dead and I shoot you. You're not going to die again, you're already dead. You can't over-die, you can't over-dry.

Agreed. I would be shocked if he didnt bang at least 3-4 women a week before he was married. Actually, I would be a little disapointed.

Look, I would never go out and cheat on my wife but at the same time this guy lives in a different world than all of us. Wherever he goes, the hottest chick in the room, (even if the room is Perkin's dining room), begs him to hook up. How many of you have been put in that situation every time you go somewhere? Tough situation for any guy to be in.

Damn. I would say cheating with one women is a possible mistake that is redeemable. Cheating 7, 8, or 100 times is intentional and calculated.

3. The most lucrative method for an ex-champion to make big money is in course design. You're a 100 million dollar developer and you're building a golf resort in Florida. Are you putting Tiger Woods' name on your resort course?

Well, the marketing could be great, depending on the resort:

For example...

Hedonism Resort, now with 18 holes designed by Tiger Woods. (It's an actual resort in Jamaica.)

So many potential punchlines...so little time.

As much as I dont like him, I do agree with those of you who say that if his wife does leave him, he will shred the tour next year.

He will have nothing but golf. He will have lost his wife, dignity, his kids, and a whole shit load of money. He will disappear from the public. He will only concentrate on golf. He will come back better and pissed off. Those on tour better get their shots in now, because Tiger will make them look like a fool on the course.

Lots of jokes today about Tiger now "being on the back nine", "taking all those guys yelling 'in the hole' too seriously", and "Somebody needs to tell this guy how to play the nineteenth hole."

That's the way I see it. The easiest way for him to get past this is to go out and have the best year of his career in 2010. A year from now he'll be single no one will really care about all of this if he wins 10+ tourneys with 3-4 majors.

This is a guy who has been part of a charade for some time now. Going out there and facing those fans, listening to the laughter when someone shouts "in the hole".

I don't like him very much, but I would not wish this on anyone. This is a very sad thing that is unfolding.

Tiger's a great athlete but he's been a great athlete with a constant home course advantage. I think he may have just lost that.

There are too many wildcards right now. What happens if he tries to whip a crowd into a frenzy and intimidate his opponents by pumping his fist and the crowd doesn't react? It's difficult to predict how Tiger will play. He's been too much of a Daddy's boy. Too seeking of public approval. If people begin to look at him as if he were low-life, well, I wouldn't care to predict how he would play.

Personally, considering how he has been losing his temper, throwing his clubs, and cursing with increasing rapidity, I think its possible that he is anything but dominating.

The problem with living your life writ large on top of a pedestal. When you fall, you fall hard. And when your wife kicks your arse, you just fell.

Remember also that golf provides closer access for the fans than any other sport. Every time he moves from tee to tee he passes fans along the ropes. Greens and tees are 10 deep. They wont be shouting during his back swing. But he is going to hear comments that - over time - would take the best of us out of our game. Comments about holes and hoes you may be able to set aside. A shouted "where are your kids?" - not so much.

It's not so bad. You just learn to say "no, thank you" a lot.

:pimp:

Reports are one of them was while Elin was pregnant. Even if that's the only one, that ranks him second to John Edwards doing it while his wife was dying in the "cut his balls off with a pair of nailclippers" category in middle female America, methinks.

Suppose Michelle Wie (>18) and Anika Sorenstam come forward with a menage trois allegation... Tiger's fans will again become legion.

:p

Give me Wie and that aussie female golfer that was featured on ESPN not to long ago...yes.

Anna Rawson is her name...I can't post up her pictures at work but if anyone had the inkling to...oh I don't know...might pass some greenies there way...
