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.
I don’t doubt that he’s a great golfer. Or the two tennis contestants aren’t great tennis players. But that’s not what interests me, or the MSM. I share their interest, only because I habitually comment on their stupid obsessing on race.
In Tiger Wood’s case, it’s not entirely misplaced, because blacks used to be excluded from country clubs and golf courses. So to have a stellar golfer who is also non-white is man-bites dog. They just overdo it.
But as for Williams and Osaka, it’s not only ridiculous, it’s more than a little crazy, and contrary to the rules of good sportsmanship.
