Now turn it to Tiger...I am not guessing..I worked at the US Open at Wing Foot. Tiger has "protection" so kids could not get around him. He ignored all the kids holding out their cap, players lists, etc and just walked by them As he walked thru the people between holes he ignored them while Phil gave them high fives. He was only interested in getting off the property when he finished 18 holes and had police to ensure he was not interrupted by the public who paid significant entrance fees. Would anyone be surprised that he cheated on his wife/family and was a moral outrage for kids.  |
There is more to being a champion than winning the most golf tournaments.
Regarding Phil, did you see him give the ball he used on # 17 to the kid behind the ropes? What a class act he is!
