I'm probably what you would consider an average Tiger fan - definitely the
best today but not forever - yet.
My question comes when I'm watching this match play tourney broadcast by the
golf channel. It seems to me that when Tiger is up 5 holes after 6 that some
attention would be given to other matches that were not runaways. In fact
the match I wanted to know about, Garcia vs. Howell has not been mentioned
yet. Oh well, I guess they need to appease the sponsors -NOT

Like it or not, the "new" generation of golf fans tune in to watch
Tiger. I personally loved the tigerless playoff last weekend but I
like to watch the Tiger when he's playing. I like watching someone soo
good get soo mad..... he's human.

This isn't limited to golf - the media figure we want to watch
celebrities.

And they know what they're doing - there are a lot more casual golf
fans out there watching Tiger than serious golf fans who are
interested in the competition.

This is show biz. As is the News, unfortunately.
