Tiger Woods curses out photographers and threatens to break some ****ing necks. Media frenzy ensues.
The coolest thing about this whole thing is that Tiger did not apologize. What's cool about Tiger is that he takes a stand, and sticks to his guns. Anyone who criticizes Tiger just hasn't been in his shoes. I'm not just talking about tournament play. All the pros play under tournament conditions with their paychecks on the line and where every shot counts.
Tiger plays under those conditions with the addition of literally the entire golf world watching, hundreds of fans and press in tow. The incident took place during perhaps the most tense of conditions in a regular, non-major event: the final day, with Tiger not in the lead. Ninety-nine percent of people would've cracked in that situation.
Furthermore, if you think cursing in public is an anomaly in pro golf, then perhaps you need to watch more pro golf (live of course).
