Poor ould Tiger! Is the world gone mad or what? Tabloids demanding - screaming for answers - explanations. WTF??? Even broadsheets getting in on the act. What has this world become at all. A guy seemingly has domestic difficulties - and the world media demands to know whats going on. So what if he is the best golfer in the world. So what if he is one of the world's most recognised faces. Did anyone die? Did he truly harm anyone but himself and his own family.

Absolutely nauseating. Why do we put up with this kind of s*** ....

I always find it funny that people blame the "tabloids" for all this kind of stuff. The tabloids exists cause people buy them!!! For everyscummy tabloid there's a pile of scummy? people who buy that paper!

It's a bit like the Dublin footballers and the meeja. A lot of Dubs hate the constand attention in the press yet the reason there's all the attentioni s that it sells papers to Dubs!

The title of this thread reminds me of one of the finest headlines i have ever seen in sport. In 2001 the Chinese film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon became a worldwide smash, in the same year an NRL player by the name of John Hopoate who played for Wests Tigers hit the headlines for all the wrong reasons.

It came to light that he had been "unsettling" opposing players by.......well how do i put this........sticking his finger up their arse during a tackle!

When it all came to light after a North Queensland Cowboys player complained, the headline the following day was....................Crouching Tiger, Hidden Finger!
