Tiger Woods!
What a miserable sportsman he is. He thinks he should win all competions.
When he is winning he actually smiles, but when things dont go right, what a bore, a bit like the Scot Monty.
I am pleased he didnt make the cut today and hope he has a nice flight home.

Even so, you can`t compare him with Mrs Doubtfire (Monty), he is the best golfer you or I will ever see, ok he can be a bit sore when things aren`t going well but that`s what makes a champion
If you was the best at what you did and won nearly every event you took part in would you not be p!ssed off when things go wrong?

trt:
Let's get Monty out of the way first: He's always miserable, even when he wins which, nowadays, is never. But, having said that, he speaks eloquently and honestly. I've watched him for many years and at least he's consistent when it comes to temperament.
Therefore, having a go at him now's a bit rich, he'll never change. And I think it's true to say that he's undoubtedly one of the great golfers never to have won a major.
As for Tiger, I saw his interview with Hazel Irvine yesterday after he'd failed to qualify. Sure he was down in the mouth, of course he was, he'd just failed to qualify for the first time for the final 36 holes of the Open. He was, however, polite and articulate and the final two rounds will be the poorer without him (and Monty!).

It was a stupid question from Hazel Irvine anyway (probably the producer's idea). 'How do you feel about missing the cut?' What's he supposed to say..........'Ecstatic? There are far too many interviews on both BBC and Sky Sports these days, another poor idea imported from America. Sports people have to give interviews and most of them (if not all) absolutely hate it and don't really have anything interesting to say anyway. More action less talk please. As for Tiger, we are privileged to be able to watch him. I would love to have had the same opportunity to see Bobby Jones, Walter Hagen, Henry Cotton, Sam Snead, Ben Hogan et al.
Miserable? How was he supposed to look, ecstatic? As always he gave a fair and honest opinion of his own performance. He never makes excuses. If he played badly and doesn't cut the mustard he's honest and forthright enough to say so. He didn't blame the course or the weather, it's the same for all.
That's the thing about golf, you can't blame the ref or underhand tactics from the guys trying to beat you, it's you against the course, end of.
Furthermore, it's Woods who has pushed golf into the glabal sport it has become. It's estimated 40 million play the game worldwide, expected to swell to 60 million in the next ten years. All the top pro's acknowledge that they have the current massive prize pots on offer as a result of the Tiger influence.
If the world's best golfer doesn't make the cut for the first time in a major since just after his dad died then he's bound to feel just a little bit deflated, don't you think?

oh please, tiger has a lot of pressure on him to win these events, he is followed around continually, there is massive expectation for him to perform. he does have a personality but when he plays he plays seriously.
monty has always been a miserable sow, more so now he married a woman who stated that she hated golf and "refused" to be a golf widow.
