Tiger and Sergio Don't Play NiceHonestly, I really like the Sergio vs. Tiger spat. Let me tell you why.
When he burst on the golfing stage as a 19 year old at the PGA championship at Medina, everyone thought Sergio would be a rival to Tiger, and perhaps even eclipse the great Tiger Woods. However, as time has gone by, Sergio seems to have grown very jealous as he watched Tiger demolish records and win majors. Meanwhile, Sergio has been labeled as the best golfer never to win a major. A very backhanded compliment, to be sure.
The animosity between the two golfers is very apparent. Like two spolied children, neither will take the high road to resolve a very petty disagreement.
Both players are larger than life golf celebrities, with huge egos to match their enormous bank accounts. I personally have tremendous respect for both golfers--their talent is off the charts. Sergio is a ball striking genious, and Tiger has mental toughness and short game skills that have never been seen before.
I think both golfers are behaving poorly - as usual. They deserve each other. The media loves the controversy, TV ratings will soar, and of course I will be watching. Cheers.
