Tiger, more likeable?

Is it me? or is Tiger becoming moew likeable? I have never been a big fan of his (even though I could never doubt his ability). I have allways been a fan of the underdog, but this year something feels different. I don't hate the New England Patriots and I don't hate tiger. I actually find myself cheering for his great shots now. Maybe I'm just getting older and nicer.

Your rolling off the "hate the best" bandwagon.

I think he just seems more open to everyone as of late for some reason. Same guy, were just seein more of a personal side it seems. Not 100% golf/business.

My sister was at torrey Pines last week and reports that when Tiger entered the press tent for interviews he was NOT speaking to anyone. Eyes cast down, no eye contact at all....bee line for the area he was to do the interview.

Contrast that with Phil.....smiling, waving, signing autographs....very personable.

I dont think someones personality can be based on one occurance in a press tent. Not that your implying this at all swingblade, im just saying...There are alot of things that could have caused tigers reaction in the tent most likely however is probably a time thing, he needed to get into and/or outof that interview as quickly as possible to make one of the several other appointments he needed to make that evening/hour/quarterhour. Whats moew, he might have just had a bad day.

IDK if any of you have watched super troopers...but to the OP that typo of yours made me laugh, thank you, woke me up this morning.

I have heard from others that on the course Tiger is focused & wont sign any autographs, shake hands etc. Maybe that's simply how he handles the stress & manages to play so damn well?

I'm usually in a good mood when I win all the time too.

And when I'm not winning, I know it's time to adjust the old cap again...
