Tiger: LINK

quote:

Those awaiting a truce between Tiger Woods and Sergio Garcia can keep waiting.

When asked Monday whether he had felt compelled to call Garcia and defuse the situation, Woods replied simply: “No.”


The video is great.


Sergio: LINK

quote:


“He called me a whiner. He’s probably right,” the Spaniard told Golf.com’s Paul Mahoney at the BMW PGA Championship in England.

"This is not just one thing; this has been going on for a long time," Garcia said. "It's happened in other tournaments. The problem is I'm one of the guys that just has to say something. A lot of people think about it, but don't want to say anything. Tiger can and will beat me a lot of times in tournaments but he's not going to step on top of me. I'm not afraid of him."

"But that’s OK; I don’t need him as a friend. I don’t need him in my life to be happy and that’s fine. It’s as simple as that. Like I have always said, I try to be as truthful as possible. That’s why I think sometimes most of the people love me and some hate me. I understand that but I’m not going to change. That’s what makes me who I am and that’s what makes me happy. And that’s what makes the people I care about happy because they know they can trust me. Tiger doesn’t make a difference to my life. And I know that I don’t make a difference to his life.”



Now we just need some more tournaments with Tiger and Sergio at the top.

I personally wish there were more "feuds" in golf.

Chances this inadvertantly spurs some fake rivalries in the near future? I wouldn't be surprised.

As long as Sergio admits Tiger beats his arse and will continue to beat his arse.

Of course Sergio doesn't need Tiger to be happy, but if he's playing him in the final group in the final round of a major i think he'll worry a lot more about Tiger.

Anyways, he won't amount to shite and obviously no one will care while Tiger resurges back to his dominance.

Right?

Someone needs to pull him aside and tell him that he's coming off like a little bitch.

You know the marketing guys and Adidas are just like - "what the frick?"

Tiger's response is great.

Sergio's response sounds like a woman scorned.

How could you guys gloss over the remark that SG said. He essentially said that TW calling him a whiner is the first truthful thing he has said in 15 years.

Translation TW is a liar. While that is not news to those of us who can see past his smugness it is pretty damning remark...calling a golfers integrity into question.

I totally agree. But I guess that's mainly up to Sergio.

I actually like both golfers and I think this feud thing is hilarious and entertaining. I really like how both guys are outwardly blunt about how they feel toward the other one.
