My opinion about TIGER WOODS
For me, Tiger Woods is a humble man, courteous, generous, giving athlete that has helped more kids in North America through his Tiger Woods Foundation and the Target relationship (I think over a million now) of "getting something started" than all other professional athletes put together have ever done "COLLECTIVELY" before-all time. This man is an exemple for everybody.
I think when Tiger Woods stopped to play golf, everybody said he was the best player of golf history.
Finally I think, Tiger Woods is to Golf what Albert Einstein was to Physics.....brilliant
