Wright Thompson is absolutely one of the best writers and overall storytellers in the business. His stories are always captivating. The following is one of my favorite Wright pieces. Wright Thompson Masters

This article regurgitated a lot of what we already knew from The Big Miss. Tiger is definitely a weird cat. Just goes to show that you never know someone and what they are going through. Especially a guy like Tiger.

A friend of mine was obsessed with Tiger, so he went to a practice round in Atlanta at the tour championship back in 2007 just to get his autograph.

Knowing that Tiger always started at the crack of dawn he was there to watch, for 10 holes it was Tiger, Stevie and my buddy.

My buddy asked multiple times for an autograph, everytime Tiger said he'd sign after the round, I mean WTF. There was no-one else around.

By the time the round ended it was pushing 10a.m. with thousands around, Tiger signed for 3 kids and left.

Thats about right.

His dad never sold the house because he liked the easily accessible nostalgia. If Earl wanted, he could go see the Obi-Wan Kenobi poster still hanging on Tiger's closet door, or find an old Nintendo or Lego Star Destroyer. Earl died three steps from his son's old room.

There were no Lego Star Destroyers in Tiger's time

Why would you idiots downvote this? It makes the writer of the article look stupid and out of touch.
