I root for Tiger. But he has got to mature and grow up. When he wins, you can count all the teeth from a mile away. When he loses he starts cussing the photographers and fans. A little class please.

"When he loses he starts cussing the photographers and fans."

On national TV, after hitting a "horrible" drive, he called himself a dumba*s.

At least he's not a hypocrite.

BTW, his "horrible" drive ended up in the wrong part of the fairway. My "good" drives are in the rough ... but sitting up and not behind a tree.

Nonsense. Tiger’s a fighter and a winner.

He’s got a temper? So what?

I believe he actually was cussing at himself. I’ll try to find a YouTube of it...

Tiger has a very foul mouth. I’m surprised parents let their kids hear him curse the way he does, by following him around the course. The PGA needs to take Tiger and others to task for their behavior. Is the PGA afraid of Tiger?

ah.....nevermind.

I think he hates losing more than he likes winning. His demands for quiet in his backswing is not too much to ask as he chases his goal of winning major professional championships. He's stated when asked if he'd rather win 100 tournaments or 19 majors.... "19 majors". When asked if he'd rather win 18 majors or 100 tournaments... he answered, "19 majors, that's the answer to everyone of those questions"

I don't pretend to know what it is like to be as good at anything as he is at golf, but he has never had a bad word to say about an opponent, has been respectful of Palmer, Trevino, Player and Jack William Nicklaus and of the courses he's played.

I don't see him tumbling drunk like Daly and when Fuzzy made some dumbass remark about fried chicken after he won a Masters he was cool and didn't yank out the race card.

So as far as class, I think he's got it. You might not like him as a person, but as far as a pro athlete, he's handling fame and fortune quite well.

I’ve seen Tiger’s temper get to HIM, but he’s never lost it on a fan or the gallery. He often gives photographers and rowdy gallery members a word or two, but mostly it’s just a look. What Steve Williams says to those folks is another matter entirely. Tiger is one of the most grown up and mentally tough players to ever play the game.

OMG, you mean Tiger is *gasp* human? And besides, when has he ever cussed at fans. Yes, he does let out an occasional "GD Bomb" when he messes up a shot, but I've never heard of times when he cussed out other people.

You know why golf is called “golf”?

All the other four letter words were taken.
