Tiger turns in an amazing front nine. If it holds, could be one of the best come backs in a long time.
Ga-ga-Gag!
Tiger has talent and little true class.
He is a immoral reprobate who has disgraced himself.
He deserves no honor no matter how well he can swing a golf club.
So I’m guessing you’re not a fan...
Get over it. Everybody deserves a second chance.
Go Rory!
I just want to see him rub a major victory in the face of those sports pundits who have been declaring his career dead.
He’s a golfer not a person people should look up to for moral guidance, he and all of those at the masters have talent that plays a game that many love- I celebrate their determination, skill and dedication to the game
“Who cares?’
I do, obviously. I’m a fellow sinner who appreciates greatness.
I remember Mcilroy made a stupid statement on the Golf Channel about a few weeks back about America being weak’ (it was in the tone) and that he also hates coming here.
It wasn’t in the news but the Golf Channel reporter was stunned.
He’s a limey prick.
We all know he’s a jerkwad sex-addict who cheated on his wife.
His wife got more than $50 million in the settlement. Move on..
Just saw him gag a 6 foot putt.
I know I would spontaneously soil myself followed immediately by a little projectile vomiting.
There is a lot of steel at this match and its great to watch.
He has God-given athletic ability. He chose to use that ability to be a role model for self aggrandizement and immoral behavior.
Greatness is not in a golf swing. Greatness is in character, and what one does to help his fellow man. How many USO tours has Woods been on? How many hospitals has he toured? The answer is somewhere near zero.
One of his conquests is the just-legal daughter of a friend of ours. She worshiped him since she was 14. He turned that teenage crush into another place to bury his pee-pee.
He is nothing more than in immoral prick.
Tiger is the role model for every Black kid who things money, acquired in any way possible, is a guarantee of special treatment and a cessation of the requirement to lead a moral, just life.
Stop and think for a moment what his kids are going to experience for the rest of their lives, the snickers, the put-downs.
He is no better than some BA rapper. Both have talent. Woods just fooled us for a while that he is a nice guy.
Digging on people who live in the public eye when they screw up is a way for losers to feel better about themselves.
Tiger will now never be a better golfer than Nicklaus because Nicklaus achieved all he did while sustaining a marriage and a family. Something Tiger has proven incapable of doing. Tiger knows he blew the more important of the two endeavors. Will he win again? Sure, but it will be hollow because he lost at what was really important. His commitment to his family.
Woods is an incredible golfer, there's no disputing that. However, talent, be it in athletics, entertainment, the arts, business, or whatever, DOES NOT equate moral character.
Tiger mastered the art of APPEARING in public to be a great role model. He didn't cover himself in tattoos or surround himself with thugs, but in private he used financial blackmail to treat his wife like a doormat and used his fame to treat impressionable young women like whores.
In the end, he proved himself to be exactly the negative role model that so many contrasted him against.
Tiger may be the best golfer of all time but he will never be the greatest. Character is part of greatness. The two can not be seperate.
