I don’t follow golf. I don’t follow tennis. Since I got nailed in a football pile-up at age nine, I lost all interest in sports involving smacking, throwing and kicking balls around, except sometimes soccer. The only thing that does interest me is the politics of political correctness. I know Tiger Wood because he’s in the news. He’s in the news because he’s part black. I bet he’s a good golfer. But I didn’t know he lost ‘his game’. So now he’s got it back. Woopdeedoo. What are the other ‘greatest golfers of all time’ doing lately? They’re not in the news because they’re not even part black, just golfers.
I suggest you take a couple of minutes of your time to at least read Tiger’s list of achievements in Wikipedia. He is one of the top two of three golfers of all time. He lost his game because he had to undergo spinal fusion surgery. Many thought he would never make it back. You don’t have to follow sports to know that he gets the attention he gets because everyone is excited that his story is apparently not over and that his achievements may continue. All those white people following Tiger on the golf course are not following him because he is (half) black.
