He is a cheap skate and a bad tipper.
I'm not a fan.

Present day Tiger has more than most on tour.
He probably does with all the sluts he banged over the years.

Another OT thread glorifying cheating on your spouse.
It’s a wonder why there are so many relationship threads on here.

I’m impressed that he stayed relevant after banging the Waffle House waitress. Not everyone could overcome a lapse in judgment like that.

Let’s put this in perspective you dumb dick. If 1/100th of the chicks that Tiger banged were wanting to frick you, you would have cheated as well. No straight male could possibly turn down the amount of poon that was thrown at Tiger.
Sure, Tiger may have gone a little overboard. But that’s probably not all that difficult when you’re in his shoes.

Brooks should pray that Tiger takes that crazy thing off his hands. He is damn near Decker good looking and she is homely with crazy eyes.

Same reason as Jordan, Griffey, Bonds, Manning, LeBron, Gretzky, etc etc etc
People appreciate greatness when they see it. I doubt we’ll ever see anyone as good at golf as prime Tiger in my lifetime. He transcended the game and is the reason for the popularity of it today. He was so dominant and great at all facets for so long, it’s insane.
To put in perspective...he was TWICE world #1 for over 5 years straight! Only 6 other times has anyone been #1 for over a year (Tiger was one of those too plus 4 others). That is absolutely mind boggling.
In addition, he actually shows personality out there which so many top guys lack. You can see the competitor in him on every stroke. This past weekend is a great example. Couldn’t find the fairway most of Sunday but hit some ridiculous approach shots and putts to not only stay in contention, but go under par on front and back 9 to finish 2nd. It’s been awhile but he seems healthy again and is still top 5-10 today.

Since his adultery, he's not as popular. And people don't care about adultery anymore.

eh, he had a longer run. Tiger was more dominant in his prime and literally changed he sport.

Quite a feat, considering he is a well-known a-hole.

Because he was awesome. Then hit bottom and now he's rising up again. American loves a comeback story. I'm pulling for him myself tbh.
Posted on 8/14/18 at 7:35 pm to Cycledude
There aren't many dope head golfers to pull for, so he gets support by default.

The dude was one of the greatest ever until his wife ruined his life. But he’ll be back.

Tiger did things on the golf course like no one before him. Youngest player to ever win the Masters. Absolutely decimated the competition at the 2000 US Open, only player under par and won by 15 strokes. Also winning the 08 US open with a torn ACL and a broken fibula.
He may be vanilla to the press, but no one is more exciting to watch, from running the putt in during the 99 PGA to the massive fist pumps. He brought so many young people into the sport because he wasn't bland and boring to watch.
Dude hit shots that ought to be impossible. The 3 iron from the bunker on 18 at Hazeltine is one of the great golf shots of all time. The chip at the Masters in 05.
Etc etc etc

People like to watch greatness, but they also like that he left it all out there on the golf course. You got to watch his emotions on display, and it made watching golf more fun because of it. When Tiger does well and throws a huge uppercut fist pump, it gets viewers jacked up. As much as I like golf, it’s not as fun to watch when he’s not in it. Doesn’t hurt that he’s black and dominant as his sport either.

I haven’t watched regular season basketball since MJ retired. I love watching golf but I love it more when TW is showing off. These two men changed the sport they played and exhibited greatness. Not surprising that both also work harder than most. TW is a living legend
