Tiger didn't ask to be a role model or your friend. Why hold him to a higher standard - just because he's in the limelight?

I don't think it would be the fact that he wants to win that makes him a sore loser, it's the conduct that ensues when he doesn't when. Those are two different things.
I also did not get the take that anyone is holding him to a higher standard at all. It's a general standard of sportsmanship and class that applies across the board to everyone. Even us little people.
