Ms M,  :-)

i totally disagree.  i think it made him look like the responsible man that he is.

no.  he is not the only one who does that, but it was caught on camera.  it

looked bad.  plus those types of actions can sometimes be dangerous to the

gallery and also to the golfer.   i don't think he needs to apologize for

everything, but in this case, i think it was a good decision.  :-)

he didn't look weak at all to me.  he looked strong.  because he is strong.    he is a strong man. 

it took nothing away from him.   it just made me respect him more.

it was not long and drawn out, and plus it was kinda light hearted too, especially

when he talked about hitting his toe and he was smiling. 

Ms M you have been here a long time.   but i don't know if you remember

Tiger's struggles with course management.   he literally was beating himself

and losing tournaments because he would not control his emotions when he

hit bad shots and it always continued to carry over to the next shot, and the next,

etc.  and he, though being a marveous talent, was losing tournaments.

but thank goodness for commentators in the know such as Kenny Venturi and

Curtis Strange and Mike Tirico, etc.   they consistently spoke about Tiger's need

to develop good course management, and to quit beating himself, and it happened,

and the rest is history.

i just think that with so much focus on the swing, etc., that poor course management

has crept back up on Tiger unawares and is wreaking havoc in his game right now.

but he is a smart guy, the best golfer in the world, and he will figure it out.

:-)

TIGER WOODS IS THE BEST!

I think they will start to leave him alone once he stops taking their abuse and stands up for himself. I don't  see the point in apologizing because you know he's going to do it again. This happened two years ago after "the public apology tour" he said he would temper his language and behavior on the golf course and,  it lasted for ooh about um three minutes and he was back to the old Tiger.

I doubt Momma T said anything. I hear she has quite the foul mouth herself.

I think the very next time someone gets snippy with him in a press conference he should speak up. Tiger is non confrontational! He is quiet so automatically they believe he is weak.

God knows I have a potty mouth. I also have a temper!!! So Tiger I understand! Lol

mg and 18,

i think the way Tiger does interviews is really wise.

Mark Steinberg and the inner circle do a great job!!!

if he allows the snippy press people to push his

buttons, then it just gives them more to work with.

more his words to twist and turn and falsely repeat

around the world.  

as it is, they have to make up half of the stuff because

he is closed mouth.   good decision, Tiger.

good decision on his part along with Steinberg, etc.

he does not have to prove himself.

he is the best golfer in the world.

TIGER WOODS IS THE BEST!

I hope he realizes allowing them to push him around is not going to make them like him. One of the biggest complaints about him is that he is too robotic and when he does show emotion they complain it's too much.

I also doubt mama T said anything. From what I have learned about Asian older women not born in the U.S., they don't say much / correct the
male members of the family. First wife Japanese and current wife Filipina, both mom-in-laws not born here and are very old school.
Were very quiet about what ever the male was doing or did.

Tiger is what Tiger is. Can't hold everything in all the time.

Tiger is the best of the best and always will be.

They never liked him and never will!

However it's about time Tiger get them off his A!
Like a couple of weeks ago when Alex asked Tiger
about that stupid book. You had a sense that Tiger
was a little tired. Needless to say they haven't asked
him again! Lol

No...
Tida use to beat Tiger's but when he got out of line! Lol

Tiger is not trying to make anyone like him.

he is being wise.

i think he handles himself well with the media.

as far as his passion on the golf course,  he

dominated golf for years and played with passion.

i don't think that should change.   i love the emotion

he shows when he hits a good shot, when he wins,

fist pumps, etc.
