"Hi, my name is Tiger Woods. I was a great golfer, I won a Masters or two, and everybody loved me and thought I was the coolest, and then I cheated with some chicks and my wife found out, we got divorced and I became the butt of everybody's joke, from Saturday Night Live to various talk shows to the radio and much, much more. Then, I tried to make a comeback and I was a shadow of the golfer I once was. Now, some dude who knew how to make good money off of this sad tale wrote a book about it. THE END" If you're a golfer, nothing new (from 2010-06-19)
I've been golfing about 25 years now and have regularly been a fan of the PGA Tour. Consequently, there is nothing about Tiger Woods in this book that I already didn't know. I learned a little about his mother and father, but to me it was irrelevant. If you are not a golfer, this book may give you a little insight into Tiger's past. Anything you may want to know since last Thanksgiving, you can get more than enough from news reports on the internet, People mag, US mag, etc. Also, way too much ink is wasted on the transcript of Tiger's public apology. I plan on buying Unplayable: An Inside Account of Tiger's Most Tumultuous Season by Robert Lusetich and hope I will get more insight as to what made/makes Tiger tick. The reviews look promising. Well done.... (from 2010-06-14)
Tiger Woods had captured the heart of this nation, but does this mean we have any right to judge him? Or even comment on his private life? What does he owe us, his fans? From his childhood, he epitomized the "anyone can make it" mantra. I knew a lot of the information, but a lot I did not. I don't think this was a judgemental book, just informative, which is what I was looking for. I truly feel sorry for Tiger, he obviously lost his way, but it was well worth reading for the background, his parents, his home life, his time in school and an insight into what a gifted person does or does not owe to his public. Well worth a read. Garbage (from 2010-06-04)
I had already read, and listened to, this sensationalist garbage a thousand times over, as everyone and their mother tries to make money on this story - nothing new. I will never understand how we love to build up and put people on a pedestal, only to smile in glee as we then destroy them. |
