The Power of Tiger
The power of Tiger… Two weeks prior to the Quail Hollow Championships he announces that he is playing and within 24 hours Saturday and Sunday tickets are sold out. This is a tournament director’s dream…not only for his local and regional sponsors but also for the buzz of the golf tournament… My question…why has Tiger always committed soooo late to sponsors in the past. Obviously he has an impact on tickets sales, sponsor value, and tournament operations…was this all part of “Old Tiger” or this the new leaf that all the media is talking about… Close media that cover him daily are afraid to ask him the hard questions… Is he sorry for wronging so many tournament directors in the past by committing late to events? Do you remember the kid that you picked on in grade school because he was different and then you see him at your high school reunion and he is a normal guy with a family – how do you feel…? Well maybe that’s how Tiger is feeling right now and he is trying to correct his ways… only time will tell.
What do you think? Let the Show KNOW!
