I've heard his caddie, some athletes from other sports and lots of golfers say the things you are looking to hear. I doubt Tiger's real close friends are running to the media to talk. As for his participation and such, I don't know how many more ways to say it. You don't know what his motivations are. Neither do I. Saying he only did certain things because he wanted us to think certain things is just false. No one can know that. He gives money and it's "hey look at me" or only done because of tax writeoffs. You don't hear about him giving to the average Joe and he's wrong there too. He puts in time and effort into his foundation, learning center and golf clinics for kids and he's just doing it because he wants us to think he's a good guy. We'll just have to agree to disagree....because I think you'll find something wrong or bad intentions behind anything good he does. It's no secret that I'm a fan of Tiger...so I'm likely biased the other way. But when it comes to giving time, money and effort, I'm not going to question anyone. No question Tiger is a terrible husband, but ripping him for charitable efforts is a pretty big stretch.
