No it didn't...
As long as a professional athlete remains apolitical and has no history of violence, I have no problem with their personal lives which are none of our business.
With that being said, one has to question how it was that a part time Swedish model who worked in a book store was brought to the United States as an Au Pair by Jesper Parnevik and ultimately married the most influential golfer on the PGA tour. Considering their outcome, a "Gold Digger" comes to mind.
Not excusing Tiger's infidelity but with all things considered, it's none of our business......
And for what it's worth, not long after their divorce, the Gold Digger found herself other noteworthy rich dudes and is currently pregnant with her latest boyfriend...........
Yes, it did indeed come to a screeching halt after his marital infidelity. I agree that it is none of our business, but reality is reality. His major wins:
1997 Masters Tournament
1999 PGA Championship
2000 U.S. Open
2000 The Open Championship
2000 PGA Championship
2001 Masters Tournament
2002 Masters Tournament
2005 Masters Tournament
2005 The Open Championship
2006 The Open Championship
2006 PGA Championship
2007 PGA Championship
2008 U.S. Open
...
2019 Masters Tournament
The blow-up with his then-wife was in November 2009. Do you see that it took another 10 years to win another championship? When he had been averaging over one a year???
Believe what you want about the infidelity having a negative effect on his career, but you would be wrong...very wrong.
