I don’t think so. She’s well-respected by her peers and the pros. Probably only Inga would cause a fuss. Or as Inga would pronounce it “a fussh”.

I doubt it. She’ll apologize, and Tiger will accept the apology. My guess is that she’s not bright enough to realize that “to lynch” has alternate meanings.

no. The golf community is quite close and Kelly is a big part of that community. The announcers are also fairly 'close' (relative to other sports) to the players especially the ones that they see and cover a lot. I believe Kelly meant nothing maliscious and Tiger is a statesmen in his ability to deal straight up with people. He will not cower, but her certainly will except her apology and would be against her being let go. This is my prediction.

I am sure they were trying best to figure out how this should be handled in the most respectful way towards Tiger and their audience. This is why it probably took a couple of days. (with outside intervention it could have turned into a powder keg and she would have been forced out.) Believe it or not there are still media companies that maintain dignity and close relationships with those they cover as well as with their behavior and audience--except John Daly and that guy on the Grey Goose Vodka show with the big mouth.
