I've never heard anyone say that Tiger uses profanity or throws tantrums, so it must just be haters who are trying to point it out. Tiger is a GREAT player who will be in the record books for years to come. And I believe he is a gentlemen and good sportsman.
Jeff, who is better? If you talk about someone from the past and mention modern equipment, please remember how they lengthened courses because of Tiger. Golf is such a hard game and it required concentration. If all pros were on their game, Tiger would win every time. He makes shots that nobody else has even dared to try.
He throws tantrums and uses profanity? I must be clueless. Tiger is amazing and will go down as one of the best at what he does. I see no reason to dislike the man, he is simply amazing at golf.
