No but if he was just about golf he wouldnt be endorsing things like Razors and video games.

Tiger has established brands in other markets then golf. He's all about being a marketable commodity and cashing in on that.

Plus its overly apparent he wants everything he can get his hands on so Im sure there's a part of him thats highly driven by money. A guy with an ego like his needs to have the most of everything.

Would you say the same thing about Arnold Palmer who just about set the Standard for branding himself outside of golf?
Again, to buttress his life for when there will be no more golf (any of those knee problems he has had could have killed his career) and because he was lucky enough to be a "marketable commodity" I think he was just doing what came naturally w/ his success at Golf. I truly believe his overiding Goal for playing at this point, because of and/or that is driving his ego, is to be the best ever. If making a pile of money comes w/ that then so be it. I cannot hold that against him.
So as not the be an ashey/tJd; philava/phan52 kind of thing, we can just agree to disagree at this point.
