I’ve never understood the deification of Tiger and always thought the praise lavished on him was disproportionate. He’s a golfer, OK, the best golfer ever. But the way sportswriters would trip over themselves to extol his virtues made him sound like a combination of Martin Luther King, Jackie Robinson, and Arthur Ashe; he’s a great athlete, and no better a person than anyone else (and worse, in some respects). If you don’t buy the hype, you won’t be disappointed.
“Martin Luther King”
Didn’t MLK whore around, too? So, maybe Tiger is a bit MLK.
