In Need of a Tiger Balm
From the magazine issue dated Jun 30, 2008
It must have been really painful for Tiger Woods to play an entire tournament—including a 19-hole playoff—with a double stress fracture in his leg. But you know who's hurting more? CBS, NBC, ABC, TNT and the Golf Channel. Over the last three years, Tiger-less tournaments have attracted, on average, 2 million fewer viewers than ones he played in. Too bad the networks can't ask for a mulligan.

Comment: I hope that Tiger Woods does not end up with any permanent damage. I waited to get my rotator cuff fixed for a similar reason and man oh man am I constantly reminded by the pain caused by massive scar tissue and arthritis. You live and learn. I only wish him the best because he is a great golfer and seems like a good person as well.
