With how far Tiger has brought the game of golf since he burst onto the scene, much is owed to him for how the growth of golf has taken off. However, today Woods clean image is gone forever as more woman are coming forward and saying they slept with Tiger, and quite possibly most if not all of them were paid to keep their mouth shut. At this point no one knows the true number of floozies, but I've heard 13 thus far.....and counting. Who knows, maybe it's one for every major he's one, but I doubt it ends there.
Is this Tiger Woods or Charlie Sheen that we're talking about? Time will tell how these "transgressions" taint Woods reputation as a golfer, but there is no question as to how Woods reputation has been tainted across the world as a man, husband, and father. Even Woods fellow PGA golfers have admitted they kept there mouth shut until now, as it's been said that this scandal was the best kept secret on tour. Wow!! Nonetheless, some of these fellow golfers are now jumping off the Tiger bandwagon. Ben Crane said recently, "This is no surprise to anyone who knows Tiger, he's a phony and a fake and he can't retain that squeaky-clean endorsement deal any longer."
There is no question people now have taken Tiger off of the pedestal, and it's now known that he is not perfect and he even makes mistakes. It remains to be seen how this will affect him as a golfer, and will these mistakes feed over to his golf game. His mental capacity to overcome adversity on the golf course is what separates him from other solid golfers, and that's what makes him the best. But how will these off the course challenges change his mental ability to overcome? Will he continue to win tournaments, will he continue to play in as many tournaments, and will he continue to win Majors?? I can't wait to see what happens next....
