I grew up watching golf. My dad loved the game and won many trophies locally. I recall people like Fuzzy Zoeller and the guy who wore plaid and was killed in a plane crash( his name escapes me). I guess I like characters. I like Tigers attitude about race(Cablanasian) and the uncanny talent to pull off the impossible. Child prodigys have to burn out sometime, and Tiger had a historic run, but I’d like to see him smoke everyone off the course once more.

Funny you mention Fuzzy. It was the first time I had to wonder about Tiger when Fuzzy made a joke about Tiger having a Black ethnic type of dinner after he won the Masters and as custom would host the following year’s champions dinner. The media got all over Fuzzy for being racist and Tiger let him twist in the wind. As an outcome Fuzzy lost $$$ in endorsements. I thought that was rather cruel on Tiger’s part as he easily could have stood with Fuzzy, but didn’t.
