So only golfers are held to your moral standard? Tiger has made mistakes. And he’s paid for them more than most. That said, Your premise that Tiger is not an athlete is laughable at best.
Went to a practice day this year. Monday. Thought Rory looked really good and had a chance. Amazing to see the course in person TV doesn’t do it justice. Spend some time between 16 green and 17 tee. They skip balls across the pond onto the par 3. I think it was the group with Couples, Woods, Justin Thomas hit the skip shots all three at the same time. Then 17 tee box is about 50 feet away from the green.
Where are you staying? I used to live across the river in Aiken. Our kids had spring break based on when Master's week was and we'd either get out of town or stay home to avoid the tourists. Depending on the weather it can be a beautiful time of year with the azeleas in bloom.
His indiscretions were laid out for the entire public to see. He sat in front of reporters and talked about his private life and had private text messages published for the world to see. He’s been ridiculed and demonized by the public for all of this. He lost his reputation, ten years of career, and a few hundred million dollars in a divorce. Numerous athletes and public figures behave in a similar manner and never get even a fraction of the consequences that Tiger did. So yeah....more than most.
But I also know you’re a vocal Tiger hater and facts won’t matter.
He’s no more of an athlete then a good pool player or dart board champ. Golf is a game of leisure. If he’s an athlete then so is John Daly lol! Race car drivers are athletes too then I guess
Anyone can throw a dart at a dartboard or shoot pool very few can par a round of Golf..
I never really know which side to take on this.
I think sometimes the idea of "looking like an athlete" means something but other times I think it doesn't mean much at all. I have know a lot of guys that look the part (myself included, humble brag) that can't do things that might be considered "athletic", I can't juggle a soccer ball or really even kick one with any degree of accuracy. I could dunk years ago but I could not run a 4.5 40.
John Kruk and Charles Barkley did not exactly look the part but both were really good in their sport.
Some heavyweight boxers don't exactly look the part but they still beat the **** out of dudes.
I guess I don't think you need to be an athlete to be a golfer but you need to be athletic in the sense that it takes hand eye coordination, speed, strength maybe endurance?
In case anyone is still not aware of the time change, the leaders have headed into the back nine. Koepka just put it in the water on #12.
And Poulter just followed him in.
And now Molinari - bringing a bunch of players back into the picture.
And now Finau - good Lord, the pond on #12 is eating golf balls.

Patrick Cantley, who barely made the cut, just eagled 15 to take the outright lead. This thing is wide, wide open.
Facts: He banged countless women, including a number of ******...instead of his hot wife. And would still be doing the same, had he not been caught. There are your facts.
fact: if you don't like Tiger you are a dweeb of epic proportion
save the morality lecture & enjoy watching a little history
That is why some of us call him Cheetah instead of Tiger..Laughing
So far one of the best masters ever.
You asked how he had paid more than most, I answered you. No one debated what happened before but you debated that he didn’t pay more than most. You’re wrong. Many people cheat, very few pay as high of a price for it as Tiger did. Those are the facts relevant to what you asked.
Molinari is now popping his pants.. Too bad.
i get the disdain.
it was an unsavory situation that carried on far too long.
i wonder if people woulda cared if elin was homely...

Enough of the personal attacks. Let’s talk golf and quit with the name calling.
Frost didn’t wait for his little neighbor girl, who used to color him pictures and babysat his kids, to turn legal age then nail her. That’s one sick SOB!
Can we dig up the old threads with all the experts saying Tiger is done?
Do you speed when you drive? That is breaking the law and puts lives in danger, have you ever once gone over the speed limit?
Ever not come to a complete stop at a stop sign? Ever made a turn without your turn signal on?
Have you ever got change back and it was the wrong amount in your favor, what did you do?
I have a feeling you pick and choose the topics you like to be the morals police on...
No need to reply, we both know I am right.
The REAL shame here is that you ruminate about poop. Is your wife aware of this addiction? Be honest...she caught you watching 2 Girls and a Cup, right?
I agree! Thought DJ made a great late run. Was hoping Ricky could make a run didn’t pan out. Tiger just knocked it close!!!!
I can still remember watching that years ago and good lord...could never get it out my mind.
Exactly...the morals police are only on duty for topics that they "don't do"...
