Why doesn't the press and the fans just mind thier own business.

We should give Tiger Woods a HIP HIP DUMBASS! and move on. Let he and his wife work it out.

Just another opinion.

Yoda, I'm with you. According to credible sources, the "other woman" has adamantly denied that there was any sort of affair, tryst or much of anything else.

Tiger is one athelete who truly has been a class act from the day he turned pro. If he did make a mistake, it should be NONE OF OUR BUSINESS.

We can be crass and rude, make bad jokes and speculate and gossip all we want or we can take the high road and leave this as a private matter. Personally, I always liked hills, so I'll stick with the high road.

I agree with the fact that he appears to be a gentleman and has since his first tournament, BUT did you know that he's the highest fined player on tour because of his language and outbursts? Doesn't necessarily make him a bad person but maybe we should all just wait and see what comes of this.

When a person chooses a career that makes him a "performer on the world stage" it goes with the territory that people will be interested in all aspects of his life. If you read my first post on this thread I say how worried and sad we felt when it was announced he was "seriously injured".

I guess it is in an effort to make light of what appears to be disappointing behavior on the part of a really nice young man some of us are making jokes, kind of "gallows humor" I guess.

His dad would have kicked his butt if any of these rumors are true.

My other golf idol, Jack Nicklaus, originally from Columbus, OHIO (A great place) has NEVER let me down.

I hope all this trash talk is false, and if it is not, I hope he learns he almost lost something very, very important.

Oh, goodness; I was going to stay out of this; but I had to confess, Gracie, that that was the same song that I had thought of, so I had to let you know that you read my mind. I suspect that our beloved Tiger has gotten something that he, unfortunately, provoked; but thankfully for all concerned it was nothing as drastic as the consequences the guys in the 'Chicago' song suffered.

The fury of a woman scorned, revealed; and not, of course, to condone violence, but I am not sure that any of us can be certain that we would react differently in a similar situation; I think that people too often fail to realize that serious danger is a very real and inherent risk of unfaithfulness.

I do feel sorry for both he and his beautiful wife, who seems like such a nice lady, not just for something painful occurring in their relationship, but also for the publicity; but with him being such a public figure for his success, some degree of attention when bad news occurs is also inescapable.

But the same sources that say he is the highest fined player also concede that he is the most watched player, and with the attention he gets even a burp gets on the camera. Now if you're number 243 on the money list you can say #%&&*@@## all day, break every club in your bag, and no one would notice.

I just read Tiger's statement, and the report in the New York Times that he is refusing to talk to the police, on advice of counsel. It is a "private matter" they say. I say that he must at least be charged with reckless driving. Even with no alcohol involved, he must have driven recklessly in order to hit a hydrant and a tree on exiting his driveway. Maybe if he's charged he'll change his mind about his right to silence.

BogeyBoy - you are probably correct in stating that nobody notices when #243 swears or throws clubs (they are rarely shown on TV), but when you are a role model you are held to higher standard. Tiger went over $1,000,000 if fines in a recent year and a lot of his tirades were caught on TV. People look up to this fellow and expect him to take the high road. I don't know anyone in my circle of friends who could put off the Highway Patrol for three days and get away with it. I really don't care what motivated or caused this situation, but there should be some accountability to go along with fame and fan adoration. He used public services to get to the hospital. Sorry, I wasn't meaning to keep this going and I won't comment again on the subject. Have a great day.

It is not too often that Tiger hits a tree and a water hazard on the same drive.

That even got a chuckle out of me.
