Here we go .... again ! The different between Tiger signing  autograph and others golfer is ,Tiger would be signing ALL DAY LONG! No body wants others golfers autograph,they only wants TIGER, It's worth 10 times more!!

SO TIGER, JUST BE YOUR SELF!!! IF You don't like it, you can just kiss  off!

For fan safety, Tiger often cuts short authograph time.  I have a neighbor who has been at a number of tornaments that Tiger was in and the report is.....he's very personable, reacts with gallery, and does spend a lot of time signing.

Got to remember.....not everyone in the gallery are true fans....look at the "hot dog guy".....and who knows how many other such "incidents" have happened!

Uh that is not exactly how it works...not even Cal Ripken signed for every autographee until none were left.. and he was amazing!

The autograper tells the crowd of autograpees when he is done signing. If Tiger would spend 15 minutes with the fans it would be huge to those few and to his image and to him! He would actually feel better than just walking by. The right mind set can make things happen on and off the course.

case in point...who did you respect more in College BBall when they had the same number of wins....Coach k or Bobby Knight?

Whose attitude would you want a kid/player to emulate?

I used to go to Baltimore games, Cal Ripkin signed less autographs than anyone, including Eddie Murry.   He talked a good game but he was not that fan accessable player that people portrayed him to be, and when he did, he got mobbed and had to cut short his time with the fans.   Tiger does the same thing.  There is a huge saftey issue, pushing and grabbing, little kids get knocked down...  Normal people become jerks tring to get autographs.

Here we go again. I have been to two of Tigers tournaments. I stood there while he signed as many autographs as possible. It's hard when have about 100 people or more (mostly more) shoving to get an autograph. I have seen Tiger sign tons of autographs. After the Chevron he was signing everything and talking to the fans so please just because the camera doesn't always show it don't assume he just ignores everyone. Tiger appreciates his fans more then anyone could know. I saw firsthand how much Tiger cares about his fans. He would tip his hat to them, say Thank You, wave, take pictures, sign autographs, everything. So please don't just assume that because you don't see it it's not happening.

Well I went to 3 Baltimore games and one game in Chicago ( White Sox) and he was out there 90 minutes before the game signing, chatting etc....at each game..I also,read about him quite a bit and they said he was very good at spending time with fans. I never heard that about Eddie Murray.

TIGER WOODS, there is nothing wrong with the ways he is, like it or leave it!!!  YOU can't please every one, so you got to please your self and those who matter most!! Where were you in the last two years???? were you here supporting Tiger,when things are tough??? WELL we TTF's( TRUE TIGER FANS) are here everyone of those days and that is a fact!!!

WE are here when things are down, we're here when things are up,everyone of those days, cheering for TIGER,believing in him!! Now where were you?????

Thank you for that ...I did not know he did that and it is most refreshing to hear  these positive first hand accounts.

You're welcome. I like to tell people those things when they say he doesn't sign autographs becuase the media has a tendency to only portray him in a negative light so I understand when people who have never seen it firsthand would just take what the media says. But yes, he does those things and it's good to see after everything the media always says about him.
