I would be willing to bet that Tiger's (Celebrity Endorsement) of Barry is driving this.

Welcome to politics Mr. Woods. Should have kept your mouth shut!!!

I’m willing to bet that alcohol is driving this.

How embarrassing for that golf club.

Sounds like they were heckling everybody, but it’s only interesting when they heckle Tiger.

Isn’t there some security at such events? I’m amazed that this was allowed to continue. To start, much less to continue.

Appears that they heckled just about everyone but only Woods got the headlines.

Countdown to the inevitable, reflexive, ignorant charge of “Racism!”.

No, highly unlikely to come from Woods himself.

It's a pleasure to hear that there are people who claim to be tough in New York.

Never heard that before.

Me, I admire Tiger for never mentioning Our Beloved President even once in his inauguration day speech.

What a bunch of wusses golfers are. Could you imagine a story anywhere that felt it was newsworthy to report that ‘some drunken fans yelled at Albert Pujols yesterday at the Cardinals game’? Or, ‘some drunken fans heckled Peyton Manning yesterday at the Colts game.”

Wusses, with people running around commanding the paying audience to shut up because these lightweights can’t hit the ball if someone so much as eats a potato chip.

Woods interjected politics into the sport, this is an expected consequence.

I doubt if alcohol is the problem. it (supposed alcohol use) is being used by the state run media to marganilize those presenting opposing political veiwpoints to those of Woods’.

If those running the golf event didn’t want politics to come up, they should have asked Woods to stay away.

At 6:42 p.m., dozens of drunken spectators at Hole 10 taunted Woods as he prepared to start his third round in the rain.

Drunks acting like idiots?!?!?

I thought people only drank for the fine exquisite, refreshing flavor that only a moderate amount of alcohol can provide, and not for any intoxicating effects it may produce.

Was there a guy heckling him from a grassy knoll?

The crowds this weekend (and yesterday in particular) were the rowdiest/drunkest I've ever seen them at any golf tourney. No surprise Tiger wasn't immune from a little heckling. And let's be honest, "put that umbrella down!" and "suck it up, you've got your own video game!" isn't exactly brutal heckling. ...especially for a NYC crowd.

Meanwhile, we're in the last hour of the Open right now. ....with Mickelson just bogeying to drop one back of Glover. And Duval, of all people, is making a charge (now 2 back of the lead).

Beer-sodden fans and rain combined for an ugly finish to a long day of golf yesterday, with Tiger Woods and other golfers subjected to drunken heckling as the action at Bethpage Black came to a close.

This headline is just like the top-of-the-hour news updates since Friday, "Three men tied for the lead ... TIGER WOODS ALSO PLAYING" and such. I have had no clue whatever to who else is in this tournament, who the lead players are, all I know is TIGER WOODS IS THERE!!! Apparently he is the only PGA member who warrants having his name announced regardless his standing in the tourney. SHEESH, enough already!

I don’t think he endorsed him. He spoke at the inaguration, without mentioning B.O.’s name.

It was a classless thing for the hecklers to do.
