TW must learn to control this reaction. He has said things out loud on golf courses during tourneys that should not be said. If anything, it seems to have gotten worse in recent years.

I can never remember Jack losing his mouth like TW has. It's an unfair comparison, and I would agree TW is on TV cameras more than Jack ever was, but TW must be the almost perfect example for all the fans that idolize him. This comes with the territory and he must accept it and improve his demeanor in front of fans.

Off the subject, but I would expect Tiger to smile more, even when he is not winning the tournament. Experience should have taught him this. I remember Jack used to visit the TV booth after many a round that was less than great.
Agreed. Instead of Tiger using foul language he could just boycott a couple of events and that would get everyone's attention because Tiger is the big money and viewing draw. Then tour officials would be more likely to rigorously enforce the rules the gallery and media are supposed to follow.
