That’s what too much drinking leads to in many instances. It puts your conscious to sleep and your worldly emotions and flesh take over.

Yes it’s Tiger’s fault. However, he still needs your prayers.

People should never take joy watching people fall.

Pray for his Soul that he can turn this bad incident around.

It took Tiger only 11 years to reach 14 majors. Nicholas needed 24 years to reach 4 more....18. No one else comes close.

Love or hate him, he is a once in a lifetime talent. I have been happy to watch it in real time. Today’s Pro golfers are better, purses are larger and the golf industry is immensely wealthier and more popular....because of Tiger.....not even in dispute.

I don’t condone, nor agree with his personal life choices, but you can’t question his rare, awesome talent. He made golf a must see event if he were competing.

Steroids?....who knows... maybe.... later in his career, but that doesn’t negate his early and seemingly effortless masterly of the game. Just go to YouTube to see for yourself. Steroids do not make you a magician around a golf course. Putting and short game has nothing to do with strength. That is where majors are won.

Those at the pinnacle of their chosen field....actors, musicians, politicians, business leaders and athletes, tend to get absorbed in their press clippings and the accolades heaped upon them by those around then. The immense wealth also factors into the equation.

This certainly doesn’t excuse their excessive life’s choices, but it is not cause to discount their talents and achievements. ...think Michael Jackson as a similar example. Some handle fame and success better than others.... most have demons and skeletons...like all of us.

Love or hate him, Tiger is an extraordinary golf talent. Let’s not intermingle talent with personal dislike.
