I'll give you a few of my opinions:
First, to say that Tiger doesn't give back to kids is outright WRONG!!! Yes he may have to go fast through the crowd after a round but he almost has no choice in that. Like it or not he's Tiger not Phil. Just Google Tiger Woods charities and write me back if you think he's not kind-hearted.
Second, It will be far and away the most watched daytime tv event ever. Especially if you count the number of DVR's that will have it copied. ESPN struck gold when he announced. (They have the first two rounds).
Third, Phil may be loved by the fans but he is almost universally assailed by his fellow competitors and corporate sponsors. He is completely arrogant despite that down home grin. This is well known inside the ropes. Tiger on the other hand is not only appreciated by his peers for the money he has brought to the sport, but many, many genuinely like him.
Tiger does one thing real well - play golf! So as a recreational golfer, I'm glad I get to watch him do it again.
