/// Tiger Woods quits golf 'to be a better husband' ///

Do others agree that golf hasn't been his problem?

Perhaps he should start by making up his mind either to continue to be a successful professional golfer, who cares deeply for a happy family life with his wife and children, or carry on being an out and out, disgusting philanderer?

Why also have the British press have been banned from publishing revelations about Tiger Woods, surely there can't be much more to hide, can there?

If he has finished with golf he should set up a stud farm.
It was reported his wife has bought a property in Sweden, Who can blame her?
Tiger's sponsors are deserting him like a sinking ship so I hope he has some money put by.
For a golfer to become a multi-millionairre shows the value we put on a sport that just involves hitting a ball round parkland with a stick.
The press intrusion into public lives is well known and even the Queen this week was worried about it.

Our courts have an extraordinarily restrictive attitude to publication, compared,that is, to the United States. We might surmise that the information concerns somebody British. There was talk of a British TV presenter being one woman involved. You might think that the rule would be to allow publication, in general, and leave it to anyone named to sue for libel (and get enormous damages and costs plus a retraction if their reputation is badly affected). But unfortunately our libel laws are so ridiculous in practice that the person named can get injunctions which are so wide as, inter alia, to not only stop publication of any potential libel but to stop even the existence of the injunction being mentioned ! (This is our 'freedom of speech' )

A more interesting question is : Why does anybody care what some famous sportsman gets up to in his sex life ? How is that of public interest? He's not the Pope or the Archbishop of Canterbury, someone whose very job involves telling us how to live morally or giving moral guidance !

Yes, to be a better husband

... he doesn't need to give up golf

... he needs to give up shagging other women.

That link refers to an injunction over nude pictures (which might not exist, of course).

Frankly, I suspect Tiger looks better with his clothes ON ... !

Well, I wouldn't pay to download nude Tiger Woods pics, LOL !!
