I don't want to make excuses for Tiger because, frankly, he's getting along just fine without my help. But he's the most scrutinized golfer on the planet, which means larger galleries, more media coverage, and, unfortunately, more photographers.
If you were watching Sunday's on-again, off-again weather-delayed final round, you might've glimpsed Woods' olé on the ninth hole. It's seldom you see Woods finish his backswing with just one hand on the club, but that's exactly what happened on the par 3. And it had nothing to do with the lake that ran along the entire right side of the hole.
Nope, it was something much more sinister: somebody snapped a photo on Tiger's downswing.
''Jackass!'' [Woods] yelled as he dropped a hand off his follow-through and that usually effortless, smooth swing suddenly seized and turned into something ugly. ...
Woods had some choice words for the photographers who were shadowing him as he walked from the ninth green to the 10th tee. ''The next time a photographer shoots an [expletive] picture,'' Woods warned, ``I'm going to break his [expletive] neck.''
Couldn't agree more. Look, I get it, photographers want to get the shot. But really, how many times does it have to happen before the tour steps in? During the 2004 U.S. Open at Shinnecock, Woods' caddie, Steve Williams dispensed a little vigilante justice and was subesquently ripped for it.
