Tiger is a man who doesn´t believe anything good.He cheated and recheated his own family and has destroyed three beautiful lives and he did it because he is a vicious man.Now he must be planning how to marry Uchitle and how he could cheat her again.He is an adict ,but adict to what.Adict to cheat.he is a man
I said it the other day, it is a wonder he can keep his game up with all the disturbing details of his life constantly in the fore ground and sure enough...but I don't believe in jinxes.
Tiger is guilty of cheating on his wife and no one else. She is the only one he is accountable to - no one else. The media and the women he was involved with keep his name in the spotlight and he has found no privacy since this story broke. He is trying to get on with his life and every time he enters a tourney there is another story about his private life and one of his so called "women" brings attention to herself. Other people have done just as much to bring ridicule down on them but the press can't let the "Tiger" story go. He and Elin need their privacy.
