I think that Tiger has been generally apolitical, though he is certainly friendly to the current President (and Trump respects that Tiger has been a winner, despite some of his personal foibles.)
Additionally, his father served proudly in the US Army, and I don't see Tiger stomping on any flags...ever.
Perhaps Tiger will use his position to be the anti-Kaepernik, Nike be damned.
“I think that Tiger has been generally apolitical....”
In a walk by comment made by Fuzzy Zoeller at the 1997 Masters, he made a comment about the probable years winner, Woods, concerning his selection at the players dinner next year being fried chicken.
I was watching Wood’s reaction and he laughed it off as Zoeller was a known jokester. It was reported that Woods later received a call from Jesse Jackson and the next day, attacked Zoeller in the media to the point of almost totally destroying him publicly and professionally costing him millions of dollars in revenue and forcing him to apologize to numerous people about a bad joke. In 2013 he publicly went after Sergio Garcia for the same thing. He should have learned by that time that it was a joke with no malice. He also allowed himself to be the poster boy for mixed race marriages with his parents and his until he was caught with over 25 infidelities. Apolitical? Not on your life.
