For all who enjoyed his game and the excitement he brought to the tour and the industry, this is a bit heartbreaking.

Heartbreaking? Not in the least..... And he never really let us in, he, or his handlers and Earl, constructed a façade. Maybe after Earl's death, Tiger himself no longer had the energy or the desire to maintain it. And the obsession with the SEALs and special forces? I don't even know what to make of that. Searching for his father? Have to leave that to the psychiatrists...

Why should he, it's his personal life.

Just because one is a super sports star does not give you the right to his or their personal life...

He, or his handlers and Earl, constructed a façade.

There was no construct by Tiger, his handlers or his father. He is what he is and the attention he garnered was the fault of the sporting world and the MSM who are more inclined to destroy an athlete after they have built them up.

Tiger Woods never sought the attention he got, it came along with his personal successes. That's why he and the other top athletes of this time have "handlers"...........

ESPN and The Golf Network and the other acronyms are responsible for the "alleged" "Facade" you claim.........

The bottom line is, there is not one star athlete that wants or needs the limelight that is showered on them by the MSM. All they want is to be left alone to play the sport they excel in............

As a post script to my previous comment, both Mantle and Ruth, if playing today, would have been excoriated in their end days for their known philandering and alcohol binges but not before the MSM sports writers made their fortunes on reporting their heroics on the baseball fields........
