Tiger Woods for years has been the blueprint for how to be a respected person and athlete. Woods has had a squeaky clean reputation and is one of the most successful and famous athletes in the world. Lately however this has drastically all changed. Multiple stories have surfaced indicating Tiger Woods has committed adultery and has had numerous affairs on his wife. This new is very sad because it destroys Tigers credibility as a role model, father, and husband. Woods was also involved in a car accident in his own driveway where some theory's hint at it having to do with a domestic dispute with his wife. Tiger has since taken a leave of absence from golf and lost some endorsements. This is bad for golf and the world of sports. It's a shame that such a successful athlete and person like Woods could commit these actions. The good thing for Tiger is that in the world of sports, all people care about is "what have you done for me lately"? I believe Tiger needs to take a brief break from golf to get his personal life back in order but must return in the near future so he can start winning again. Once he starts to win tournaments again some may forget these acts Woods has committed. I personally will never look at Tiger the same again and am very disappointed in him. If Tiger Woods is lucky his image will eventually be repaired in a similar manner as Kobe Bryant's.
Like you, I will never look at Tiger the same either. For the sake of his family, I wish that his marriage could be saved, but it looks doubtful. A successful golf career may be little consolation.
