Tiger's Back
Tiger Woods is returning to golf. After much drama and media attention, he has finished his rehabilitation, and will play at The Masters Tournament this April. This topic interests me because of all the attention Woods has been given because of his multiple affairs uncovered in past months. I want to know why he decided to come back now, instead of later or earlier.
CBS News president Sean McManus said, “It’s hard to overestimate how much interest there will be” in an interview. In an article written by Chicago Sun-Times columnist Richard Roeper, it was said that Tiger Woods return to golf won’t be as big as other media events this decade. According to Roeper, bigger ones include Obama’s inauguration, Michael Jackson’s funeral, and 9/11.
I agree that Woods’ return will not be as widely followed as other past events. Not many Americans follow golf, and even less care what happens to Tiger. The article made me think about other things that were bigger in recent times. After reading the article, I still want to know what happens, but I don’t care nearly as much as I did before, because the article made me see that it isn’t that important.

awesome! good thing he is coming back because he is really good at it
he is the best player in the
he is the best player in the world at golf. he can choose when to come back and play. people need to stop caring about what he did and get over it. you dont know his life and what was going on with his family.
I think that tiger woodsa
I think that tiger woodsa just wanted attentionand when people were getting bored of his game he had to bring out a new conflict to the media. Now he is back at the top and dont know why
It really shouldn't matter
It really shouldn't matter about what he did and all of his drama. I think his personal life should be ignored and his career should be acknowledged. I don't think his life full of drama will affect his returning.
i love tiger woods but most
i love tiger woods but most of all i love you gcra8167.
gcra8167, Your post
gcra8167,
Your post interested me very much when I read it. I play a lot of golf and I also follow golf. I think Tiger Woods is one of the best golfers, if not the best golfer, to ever play the game. His talent is amazing. It is true many people in the U.S. do not follow golf, but I bet all the media attention has gotten more people interested in how he does when he returns. I was excited for his return because he is so much fun to watch. The article you mentioned in your post is also right because there are a lot more important things going on in the news and the world, but to some people this is very important. I feel like the excitment has died down a bit since Tiger has come back and is on the Ryder Cup team. I also feel like people have stopped paying so close attention to him. There were a lot of people who wanted him to bad when he returned. I wanted him to do great despite his personal life because I do not care about his personal life, just his golf life. Did you want him to do bad when he returned? Did you care about his personal life? I also didn't let articles such as the one you mention bring down my excitment. Why did you let them bring down yours? I look foward to hearing from you again on this topic. Thank you for the post.

Tigers Return = Fail
Yeah Tiger's back... sort of. He may be playing in tournaments, but since his marital incident, Tiger has only placed top ten in 1 tournmanent! Until Tiger can once again master the 6 inch course in between his ears, he will never win again. I just hope he can get it together, the sport needs him
