mbrodeur86 Posted July 19, 2015 Author Share Posted July 19, 2015 I'm torn with Tiger. On one hand, as a father and a family man, what he did to his family he is getting now in spades and he deserves it. Karma's a b*tch as they say and I'm sure I'm not the only one who's noticed how much his game has suffered since the scandal.The fan in me though still wants him to succeed. Whether I like it or not, he's MY GENERATION'S Jack Nicklaus. He's the guy I looked up to, who I enjoyed watching week after week.

superduper Posted July 19, 2015 Share Posted July 19, 2015 I don't care what Tiger does outside golf. I only care what he does on the course. Let's not judge people if you don't know them personally. Everyone has their own weaknesses. And the media magnify the weaknesses just because they want a high rating. The media don't care anything about the person on the spotlight is getting a bad coverage. Remember what happened to princess Diana?? ring a bell? And you should thank the guy because younger people are starting to pick up the sport. And it means a good future for golf. When I was young (and it was a loooong time ago), nobody liked golf. Whenever I played golf (when Tiger was still an amateur), I only saw a bunch of 50 year old smacking and swearing because they slice their driver.

When you become as big as Tiger, you also carry a role model image and responsibility. The media can magnify everything he does because of WHO he is. At the end of the day, he's the face of golf and when something like this happens, golf takes a hit also. You didn't hear anything like this happening when Jack and Arnie were ruling the golf world (yes different time but regardless had they done something bad or out of character, it would have been caught). Point being is we need a healthy Tiger, golf needs him. I hope that he finds his game in time to get the young bloods coming up and show them that he's not ready to give up his throne just yet. Don't get me wrong, I am a fan and always will be. Yes we all have our weaknesses as well as are strengths but when you ascend to the top of the mountain of anything, you need to lead by example. As a father, I have responsibilities not only to my wife but my kids. I hold them in high regard. I was a borderline alcoholic who drank stupid levels of alcohol and even dabbled in drugs. Once I had my first born though, my priorities changed. He can do whatever he wants off the golf course, it certainly is his life but if that's what he wants to do, they shouldn't have built him up as this great family man. His team did this not anyone else.
