My BIL says Tiger is a “golfing god” and his private life is
“none of his business.”

The rest of the tour is quickly catching up to Tiger.

Tiger used to intimidate the field, those days are over.

Your BIL is right, if he considers Tiger’s despicable behavior to be none of his business, then it’s none of his business. But we all get to make that decision for ourselves, and I for one will not support sponsors who throw that kind of guy a huge chunk of coin.

Yes, people can debate about another persons private life though I believe it does come into play with a celebrity but Tiger’s behavior on the course is definitely not private.

Tell your BIL that the “golfing god” got his a*s kicked last year by an Italian kid who had just turned 16 at the British Open aka The Open.

Club throwing and swearing Tiger missed the cut at The Open last year. The kid was close even until the end at The Open.

16 year old Matteo Manassero made the cut at The Masters this past weekend at age 16. No one has ever done that - not Tiger, not Bobby Jones - no one. The young man is incredibly humble and gracions.

The British Open last year was a joy because for two rounds, 60 year old Tom Watson played with young Matteo.

I do remember a young Phil Mickelson at The Open but I think he was 18 or so.

Yeah he probably said the same thing about Bubba. Ask him if that statement is true about Sarah Palin’s family's personal life.
