TWISTING THE TIGER'S TAIL (OR TALE)

Enough already! Don't you think the subject of Tiger Wood's "transgressions" or infidelities has been exhausted? Even if thirty-two new amoratae surface to stir the sexpot even more, so what's new?

I guess it's human nature for us lesser mortals to enjoy the downfall of a man "from high estate", Aristotle's definition of tragedy. We love to roll in it, smear it around and toss it back and forth. I don't justify his behaviour, but not many of us have been icons of sport and public notice and exposed to the temptations in and scrutiny of our private lives such as he has endured.

O.K., we've all had our laughs, made our little jokes and cackled. Now let the man try to piece his marriage back together and get on with a very changed life. It's going to be a long and rocky trip, I suspect---and probably expensive, as well.

I wonder what it will do to his game...

  1. That's the point. His legacy should be based only on what he does between the ropes. He didn't break any laws.
