Some Valuable Tips for Golf Beginner

There is nothing that the beginning golfer can benefit from more. The single best choice out of all gifts for the golf beginner is golf lessons. Even the best of golfers could use a tip or two at times to improve their game. Tiger Woods did not learn golf overnight. Tiger, probably the best golfer in the world, still takes lessons. Certified Golf Professionals are the ideal trainers, fully qualified to teach you how to play the game.

The Secret Tip Every Beginner Golfer Should Know What makes golf so complex when compared to other sports? There are a few reasons, however exactitude is probably the number one factor when comparing the game of golf to other activities. You have much less room for error compared to sports like baseball, for example. Baseball uses a much bigger ball and you have a comparatively larger bat to swing with. You have several chances of hitting the ball to make a play.

With golf, you must hit the ball perfect each and every time you are up for your shot. You have one swing with your taylormade r9 fairway wood and that’s it. The room for error is so minuscule due to the tiny size of the ball and the clubface.

Take It Slow

For those of you that are new to golf and have not quite grasped what we are trying to explain here about the difficulty levels of the sport, you should take time to follow a few basic tips that every seasoned golfer adhered to when they first started playing. What is the most important tip for beginners? Take the game slow and keep things simple. The obstacles of golf for the beginner player are mostly mental. With the intensity of concentration, focus, and pressure from an audience, one of the best tips that you can appreciate is to simply take it slow.

Learn the game at whatever pace suits you. Many newbie golfers tend to go all out, buy a brand-new set of discount golf clubs, hit the ball at a driving range for a few days, and then immediately run out and start playing on a prestigious 18-hole golf course. I understand that you are probably excited and want to jump right in headfirst, but compare the game to swimming.

Finally, wish these tips can help you a lot.

Sex and Golf and Advertising (2)

These first two contexts occurred to me only after the advertisement resonated for me on a painful personal level. As we all know, the advertisement features Tiger standing motionless, listening to the recorded voice of his dead father. I lost my father suddenly on a Thursday in the fall of 2006. As it happened I discovered after he died that I had a saved voice message from my father from the previous Sunday. He was calling about a Patriots win over the Bengals, how to use Picassa to save pictures from a trip, and to tell me that he loved me.

I remember the message well, because I had to listen to it to re-save it every 21 days. That ritual was one of the hardest parts of learning to live without my father. As I observed to my spouse, carrying my phone around with me was like carrying a gun where if I pulled the trigger, it made me sad. After about 18 months, I accidentally pushed seven instead of nine, and the message was gone. The recorded voice of a dead parent is just about as close as you can get to a universal abject. I can’t begin to imagine what it would be like for Tiger to have his dead father’s words reappropriated to scold him before a teeming television audience, and to humiliate him ad nauseam via YouTube.

To judge from the reaction of his wife, Tiger did cause real pain to his family. But the aggrieved party is his wife. Nike chose to reward Tiger for his skill at hitting a little white ball with a stick. The public/private morality question that come up for politicians do not apply here. It’s not clear to me why Nike was inclined to insist on humiliating Tiger in a way that must be deeply painful for him on a personal level.

Reading Berlant’s article on race and sexuality in the 19th and 20th centuries did raise one disturbing possibility. The advertisement infantilizes Tiger, putting him in the position of the returning prodigal being chastened by his (dead) father. The person we see before us is not a man, but a boy. In making Tiger a boy, Nike mobilizes a rhetoric that has been used for centuries to disempower Black men in America.

Even if its targets are white women marginal because of their professions, the threat of unrestrained Black male sexuality makes the white Nike-buying American public uneasy. In making Tiger its boy, Nike desexualizes Tiger in the hopes that he may once again be boring enough to help them sell golf equipment.

Sex and Golf and Advertising (1)

I was out for breakfast on a Sunday, reading the sports page, which mentioned that a kid named Tiger was doing well at the Masters, and the server commented “How about that Tiger Woods?” I was literally at a loss for words. He is very good at golf, but his excellence has always been clinical—easy not to watch.

His recent troubles seemed painful on a domestic level, but hardly worthy of the attention they commanded. I am even tired of people saying they are tired of Tiger Woods.

I’ve also never had much interest in Nike as a brand. I avoid buying their shoes because of their association with sweatshop labor, but buy other shoes produced, no doubt, under similar circumstances. It’s the lazy hypocritical morality of someone who avoids shopping at Wal-Mart, and goes to Target instead.

But this commercial. Tiger’s return to golf, and the simultaneous debut of this commercial, seems to put a period to this crisis for Tiger. As Tiger’s dead father asks, “have you learned anything”? Maybe so, but it’s nothing nice. There are (at least) three levels that the ad works on: literal, pop cultural, and personal.

This act of contrition raises the question of what, exactly, Tiger owes Nike for their loyalty. He lost his other sponsors when he was caught in behavior remarkably similar to that which gained endorsement opportunities for Joe Namath. It does not seem to be a question of changing mores – much more recently, Tom Brady and Matthew Leinart have been caught in extramarital sexual relations with little damage to their public image. Tiger’s philandering, instead, was pathologized as “sex addiction.” I am not sure why. His race is a necessary part of the explanation, but I am not confident that it is sufficient.

In a broader popular cultural arena, it’s hard to imagine an advertisement that will do more to perpetuate Tiger’s humiliation through endless parody. It is Nike’s gift to the meme economy. Between when I write this and whenever someone reads this, the number of parodies will have exploded further, so I won’t bother quantifying. The static image and the off-camera voice puts a parody within the reach of anyone who owns a computer. The people who do Nike’s commercials are well aware of the media landscape the ad inhabits, and it’s impossible to imagine that they are not counting on these parodies to proliferate their message.

By the way, Istockgolf.com offer discount golf clubs for you, including many named brand golf euqipments, such as callaway x-22 rons, taylormade r9 driver, titleist ap2 irons.

Tiger Woods’s Sportsmanship (I)

This is where spsring begins, on golf’s finest stage, with the game and its players on display at the year’s first major championship. and this year there will be an additional subplot, centering on the prodigality of one of the four-time champions, Tiger Woods, and his attempt to rebuild a fallen picture and restore his golf game as the standard against which all others are measured.

The quantifying begins now, inside and outside the ropes, and Woods’s behavior will be scrutinized as closely as his scores. Measures of his success and failure this week will hinge in part on whether Woods will keep a quantity of the promises made at the beginning of the week, including one about his widely criticized tendency toward angry, profanity-laced outbursts and thrown clubs over bad shots. Woods promised they would try to “not get as hot when I play.” This is not likely to be an easy promise to keep.

It is not that Woods will be expected to start signing autographs during play, or to chat with fans the way Palmer used to as they looked for an errant drive. No one thinks they will high-five or fist-bump spectators à la Phil Mickelson.

This will be about not erupting in a string of obscenities, as they has on numerous occasions during the past 10 years. It started with the infamous tirade on the 18th tee at Pebble Beach in 2000 during the United States Open, which they finally won by 15 strokes. While completing the fog-delayed second round, Woods hooked his drive in to the Pacific Ocean, and his outburst was captured by a microphone near the tee.

More recent examples include a slammed driver that bounced in to the gallery last November at the Australian Masters, his most recent tournament. They also threw his golf drivers in to a swampy area in front of a tee at the Deutsche Bank Championship last year. Although his behavior had attracted isolated criticism historically in the past, it was brought to the forefront in January when Tom Watson criticized Woods for “his swearing and his club throwing, that should finish.”

But the roots run deep. It was Woods’s sister, Earl, who might have planted in his son the notion that swearing on the work was something that people would must get used to.

“Specifically about swearing, it’s a — I won’t say a cultural thing; it’s a relatives thing. My sister could swear for 30 minutes and seldom repeat himself.”

“You can’t have it both ways with Tiger,” Earl Woods told Golf Digest in 2001. “You can’t have charismatic abilities to execute the marvelous shots and then chastise him when that same passion causes him to overload when they hits a bad shot.

His son does not believe they can rein in one without losing the other, and they said so in what sounded more like a threat than a promise.

I’m Sorry I Don’t Feel Sorry for Tiger’s Penis

I get the feeling that people want me to sympathize with this man. I’m sorry I don’t. On the day of Tiger Wood’s major Press Conference (Sorry Press STATEMENT. Press weren’t allowed to ask questions) there are so many sad eyed pictures of him on the news you’d think something died. O that’s right….it was his marriage…..

Tiger should’ve come forward sooner. Since he didn’t the press basically had a free day. And so did the women he slept with. Since Tiger didn’t step forward they all stepped forward with evidence to prove that they slept with Tiger. Some had phone numbers, some had pictures, some had texts. Then came the spoofs. Saturday Night Live, Funny or Die, television stations in China. My personal favorite came from Break.com making a parody sex tape with Tiger Woods and a possible mistress, comparing the situation to a step up to the golf tee in a match.

There are video games where you play a man (Tiger) running from a woman with a golf club (Elin Woods) as fast as you can. Some would say this whole thing has gotten way out of hand.

Everyone knows why Tiger did everything that he did and I’m glad he admitted it. He thought he was invincible because he’s a professional golf player with $1 billion in the bank. Now he admits that he knows he’s no different than everyone else. We’ll see..

When it was announced that Tiger would give a public statement the race was on for seats but the press and select members of the audience had already been selected. Elin Woods would not be in attendance, she would watch the press statement from her home. People debate whether Tiger Woods should’ve allowed the press to ask questions. I wouldn’t have. There were way too many things that could’ve gone astray with that. I can see it now:

Reporter 1: “Tiger! Did you use a condom every time?”
Reporter 2: ” Just how MANY girls did you sleep with? I’m losing count!”
Reporter 3: “So does this mean that Elin is available? Because if she is I DEFINITELY want to give her my number”

The problem with scripted statements is just that, it’s a script. You already know your highs and lows, where you should get loud and where you should be sincere. Unfortunately Tiger Woods is no Barack Obama when it comes to public speaking, and at times his script did seem insincere. I felt as if I were in a Charlie Brown cartoon at times; his mouth was moving but all I heard was, “Womp wwomp, mwomp”.

His voice did falter a few times during his speech. The first time he cast a side glance at his mother, Kultilda Woods. I have to admit I was waiting for this. Would he totally lose it? Would she? Would Tiger’s mother just get so mad she had to jump up and slap him? No. But that ice cold stare she gave him during the entire speech, I definitely felt that. There is no denying it, she is PISSED. But at who? If you took Tiger’s statement to heart you would assume it’s the press. Paparazzi have followed Tiger’s family non-stop since Thanksgiving.

Tiger was definitely upset about this. It was one of the few times during his press speech where you could tell he meant what he said. You felt a sense of anger when he talked about the photographers following his daughter to school. He looked straight into the camera when he demanded that the press leave his family alone. I can’t really take that seriously when the day before he scheduled a Getty Images paparazzi shoot of him working out with a friend in full on Nike sponsored gear.

Tiger Woods on February 18, 2010

One surprise was that he actually mentioned the incident that set this whole story in motion. I didn’t think Tiger would talk about the night that Elin supposedly went crazy and took a golf club to the side of Tiger’s head as he tried to flee away in his car but crashed into a tree in the neighbor’s yard. Tiger denied all of this. He stated that Elin has never hit him and they have never had a domestic violence dispute in their marriage. So what really happened? Tiger didn’t say. Personally I hope she did beat his ass. Tiger says that all marriage questions, all the questions about his affairs, and all other matters concerning his family will be kept between Elin and himself.

So what happens now? Well Tiger won’t return to golf any time soon. Tiger has taken a personal leave from the PGA tour. He said that even he doesn’t know when he will compete again professionally. He’s taking the time to currently go to therapy for his sex addiction as he has been doing for the past forty days. He’s also getting back to his budhist religion. His mother is a budhist. Tiger says he was raised in this religion and wasn’t taught to do the behavior that he has recently participated in.

On February 20, 2010 Tiger Woods will be going back to the Pine Grove Behavioral Health & Addiction Services in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. Clinic officials will not confirm his stay, but the National Enquirer pictures kind of blew his cover. He ask that people will allow themselves to believe in him once again.

Is it Tiger? Is it not? You be the judge.

I am glad that he FINALLY came out. It wasn’t as if it was a big secret. We all know you can’t keep it in your pants! Should we forgive Tiger? Should we believe in him again? Honestly, I don’t know. Was Tiger’s statement sincere? At times. One thing that can’t be denied is his talent. I’m very upset that Tiger’s talent has to be forever shadowed by his infidelity. I don’t feel sorry for his penis but I hope he can keep it in his pants long enough to get his life back together. He has too much talent to waste it on something as stupid as this.

TigerSluts & Vegas Connection

First blog… first post… so let’s kick  things off  w/something light/topical, before wading into deeper waters –whoever  thought  golf  would give us “crazy Ambien sex”, pancake waitresses being slammed  in church parking lots at 6am (captured by Natl Enquirer from across street, and used as blackmail for photoshoot for Mens Fitness Magazine  http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704238104574602293033609948.html  Alleged hair pulling/spanking, red panty-Oedipus complexes, bare-back rough sex, three-ways, high-end madams  revealing clients personal tastes (?)  reality show stars, Playmates, porn-bots, Vegas nightclub debauchery and Barbie fetishes…WOW!

Disclaimer:  Zionism (Masonic/political structure) is NOT Judaism (G-d centered worship system) this distinction must be made! Not a Jew hater — all ethnicities contain an undesirable contingent …

TigerSluts  are all whores—in Vegas the titles waitress, hostess, VIP marketing manager are code for “hookers”…traditional  sources of  Murder Inc. recession-proof  income are  gambling,  prostitution, and extortion. Vegas can be crazy fun, but it’s a Zionist /Mob run sewer and always has been…yes, it’s gone upscale, but remains a septic tank for greedy Zionists partnered w/Murder Inc. to fleece unsuspecting visitors/marks, using Mob muscle to pick the lint from your pockets! Tiger is simply a major “whale” being shaken down!  First TigerSlut  Rachel Uchitel  comes from old money; granddaughter of  Maurice Uchitel, owner of Eden Roc Hotel in Miami,  in 60s owned legendary celeb  hotspot El Morroco, West 54th Street, NYC…Uchitel’s  a “pro”  linked to David Boreanaz, Ryan Seacrest, Derek Jeter, A-rod… were they also marks?  Rachel’s orbit  is  Hamptons, LA and Vegas  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FyWdLvaCpVA&feature=related  (bought  penthouse for $820K in 2006) this Zionist whore/madam was also used as 9-11 Fear-Based Trauma Op poster girl http://www.welcomethelight.com/wp-content/uploads/uchitel911.jpg — investment banker fiancé,  tragically vaporized in WTC North Tower – she’s acting out script along  w/other TigerSluts — DON’T  BE  FOOLED – this shakedown  has been meticulously crafted,  and  yes Tiger Woods is a certified mess, serial adulterer and never should have married (did so against father’s wishes) but corporate sponsors  needed “family man image” to fully pimp him out, and he greedily complied.

Operation Shakedown gives us parade of  Zionist whores from Bellagio/Venetian Vegas slut factoriesare there any non-Zionist whores in the bunch? Uchitel (NY), Kalika Moquin, Jaimee Grubbs, Mindy Lawton, Jaime Jungers, Cori Rist (NY), Joslyn James (Veronica Sikwik), Holly Sampson – Vegas mob/pimps regularly rent out whores to service NBA, NFL, MLB, NASCAR, PGA and other athletes @ $10-15K per month on retainer– shipped to wherever parties (orgies) aremajor growth industry since 80s, when porn industry exploded (while  public became addicted  via VCR, DVDs, now Internet) – Vegas clubs packed w/pornbots and  flows seamlessly w/porn industry that has its annual flesh-festival in that ciy.  This prostitution/extortion combo has been perfected through use of  texts/vmail/PDAs — “Hey, it’s Tiger (what fool leaves their  name on side-booty’s phone?) take your name off the phone” — Got ‘em, time to get paid! — Just your basic Zionist/Mob shakedown, fueled by got to have it, all the time sexual appetites– Lather, rinse, repeat.

Profit Motive:  assuming just 100 players from NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL (400) in all, retain (10) Mob controlled Vegas sluts each @ $10K per month, were talking $48M annually –you know most players are doing this (married or not) — now factor in athletes from other sports andwe’re talking  hundreds of mills annually, servicing insatiable sexual appetites, w/young, well trained porn-bots–what a country… Zionist/Mob-run assembly line prostitution w/our sports heroes! Easy blackmail set up — Mr. Pro Athlete will gladly pay Murder Inc, rather than wifey (who = family man image = lucrative endorsement deals) in expensive divorce settlement– what about your favorite Hollywood stars/CEOs/politicians? Whatever happens in Vegas, Zionists/Mob always profits!  The sheer absurdity of  Vegas mob-controlled whores “heartbroken” over sexing a married man?  Did anyone see Casino, Bugsy, Godfather? Who runs Vegas?  Murder Inc, Who fronts? Zionists, Who profitsBoth, – Staggering hypocrisy here… Who consumes porn? — gotta love PGA, golf analysts/media whores who knew nothing? Of course golfers whose earnings quadrupled during Tiger’s era stayed mute…wouldn’t you? Question: after this, why any high-roller, especially married, would spend a dime on Vegas Mob-controlled whore, who keeps  over 300 vmails/texts and can’t keep her mouth shut (but makes her living  w/ it  open)  is beyond me.

Next post will shine spotlight on mysterious  trophy wife, Swedish foreign national Elin Nordegen,  and the Nordic beat down, as well as ultimate programmer/handler Lt.

Re-post. Tiger Woods

From www.urbandaddy.wordpress.com.

I really don’t want to talk about what is / may / may not be happening with Tiger Woods because, really I don’t care and also because it’s his private life and really is none of my business.  I don’t know what his relationship is like with his wife or kids and what the motive was for his alleged relationships and I won’t lose sleep over it.  I hope this whole issue blows over for him, for the sake of his children who do not need to be dragged into this mess.  If all true his wife will leave him, he will disappear from golf for a while, everyone will get their knickers in a twist then it will all blow over and some other stupid athlete will be in the spotlight.

So on the relationship side,  don’t care, however, what I did find interesting is 2 things;

1) That in Tiger’s press release he used the word “transgressions” and as a result of him using this word, it was the most “googled”  word for the day yesterday.  Apparently very few people knew what this word meant.  That tells me a LOT of people have been following this sotry of a “cross-cultural icon” gone wrong.  How could this have happened?  Not Tiger.  But yes.  Tiger.  Let the WWE skits begin. 

2) I was also surprised by how little the mainstream media wanted to handle this issue right from the curiosity surrounding the extreme damage to Tiger’s car as it backed out of the driveway and smashed into a fire hydrant at 2am.  Or that he was found by neighbours snoring on the grass beside his crashed car, or how it was reported that his wife, golf club in hand, was trying to “rescue him from the car”.  I guess in order to get the story and not upset the Woods camp, you take the info you are given and put it out. 

I did think it was odd that he “accidentally” reversed his car out of the driveway so fast that it smashed into the hydrant and when I started hearing rumours that his wife was chasing his wielding a golf club I thought that was even more insane.   I read the headlines in the papers about how she “saved” him and I became even more skeptable.  something didn’t appear right.

But for some reason mainstream media took initial Tiger’s silence and dropped the story.  I guess in this day and age of multi-million dollar athletes you don’t want your news station to be the one to uncover a story that would damage that athlete’s reputation and become the one news outlet who his people will no longer grant him access to.  Celebs sell stories.  Stories about Tiger sell newspapers, commercial rates go up and he is responsible for putting the sport of golf on the front page again.  People watch golf to see what Tigers does.  The sport could not afford for this to blow up.  But blow up it did.

So should I have been surprised then when slowly over the days facts about mistresses came leaking out, each one to an onlne news provider and each one lured out with a hefty fee paid to “encourage” them to go public.  No.  People will say / admit / fabricate anything for money.  hat made me realize that his gig was up, was the proof.  The phone messages asking for the cell phone name to be removed so his wife would not see the name and call back. 

Tiger’s “relationships” are no longer private and these women he was in relationships with are being rewarded for no longer keeping their silence… No one wants to go down with the ship.  I guess this ultimately shows Tiger that none of these women could be trusted, they were in it for the money… yadda yadda yadda.

I just feel sorry for the kids and wonder what, if anything, this will do for his sponsors.  Will any pull him?  I can’t see that happening right away while the uncovering of exactly what his transgressions were is still underway.  Once details start to arise and you know they will – true or untrue – then we’ll see who sticks around.  I mean David Letterman’s ratings have gone up since he was almost blackmailed into admitting he was sleeping with his staff members while married. 

I think the general public are no longer shocked by these stories and tend to assume the worst right away.  But now we leave it to the online media to dig up the gory details and throw it in our faces…

And like a car crash on the highway of life, we don’t want to see anyone hurt, but we slow down to see the damage anyways.

Golf club irons What’s A Tiger To Do? What Tiger Woods Should Do With The Media To Rehabilitate His

It’s not easy being Tiger Woods today. His personal life is a shambles, his family is shattered and his public image is DOA. While it’s easy to feel absolutely no sympathy for the golden boy whose sins cost him dearly, we need to remember something important.

Tiger Woods is not an individual. He is a $100 million marketing corporation that provided for the livelihoods of marketing people, advertising professionals and consumer product manufacturers – not to mention the business of golf itself. Without Tiger’s ability to drive endorsements and commercial viability, many people may even lose their jobs and some firms may be forced to cut back.

So, what could Tiger Woods possibly do to control the devastation of his image? Well, the simple truth is that he is way beyond damage control. The goal posts on his potential rehabilitation have been moved a few thousand yards away from its original line of scrimmage. The best he can hope for now is to set up a comeback a year or more down the line.

Still, it’s not impossible. Like many celebrities fallen from grace before him, there is a chance he could re-emerge as the powerhouse he once was. First, he needs a strategy.

The secret to Tiger’s potential comeback isn’t the golf fans, the media or even his fans – it’s women. I would venture a guess that many men are, unfortunately, less likely to think about the immorality of his actions than about how stupid he was to get caught. Of course, these men likely keep their opinions to themselves when in the company of their wives and girlfriends who wouldn’t take kindly to the idea that their men are in any way sympathetic to Tiger.

Which is why women are the key to his rehabilitation. If he can get back in the good graces of women, who are shocked and outraged by his lack of fidelity to his wife, he actually has a chance at making a comeback at some point.

The key to getting women to respect him again is to get in front of the media and perform a sincere, heartfelt mea culpa. He needs to have at least an hour of airtime, if not more, to answer questions and reveal everything that happened in his own words. He needs to be interviewed by a female journalist for the interview to carry any credibility with women – Oprah Winfrey, Diane Sawyer or even Barbara Walters. These are women of substance who will be sensitive enough to his need to tell his own story, but stand firm on their need to ask tough questions and not allow him to skirt the tougher answers.

He also needs to do the interview without coaching or any previous knowledge of the questions. His answers need to sound sincere, but more than that, they need to be sincere. Any level of rehearsal will be detected by the interviewer and the viewing audience. He needs to be genuine, and any guilt or remorse he displays needs to be real and palpable. He won’t win anyone over with that interview, but he will set the stage for an eventual comeback.

Moreover, the interview will feed the media beast. As long as he continues to decline interviews and only communicate with the media in a one-way fashion using printed statements, the media will persist. He can hide behind the gates of his home in Orlando, or on his yacht in Palm Beach, but the media will not go away until he feeds them the real story. The interview can be the last word on the issue, much like interviews given by former President Bill Clinton and actor Robert Downey, Jr. who were then able to move onto continued success in their respective fields.

But that’s not all Tiger has to do. Internally, he needs to clean house. He has a staff of handlers, attorneys, and PR people who completely failed him. Granted, as the client, Tiger probably still called all the shots from the start, but it is their responsibility to guide their client to success, and they failed.

He also needs to align himself with a group that teaches values. He needs to talk to young men about the consequences of infidelity and the virtues of commitment. Whether it is faith-based or not doesn’t matter. Tiger was of such superstar status that access to him was very limited. He was on a pedestal created by the media, but that pedestal is gone. Much like a political candidate, he needs to talk to real people, face-to-face and discuss his failings as a way to help others defeat their own inner demons.

At the end of the day, it will be a long road for Tiger Woods, but it doesn’t have to end there. He still has the ability to turn things around and to stage a comeback at some point. But that will never happen unless he honestly changes his ways, faces the music and takes responsibility for his actions in a very public way.

Corporations who failed to do so suffered similar fates. After the Exxon Valdez oil tanker crashed and spilled millions of gallons of oil across Prince William Sound, they tried to hide the fact they put an alcoholic captain at the helm of the ship. As a result, people drove past Exxon gas stations and the company’s earnings and stock price suffered for years. It took them much longer to regain the lost market ground because they failed to take responsibility and get past the media storm. It’s basic crisis PR management, and the rules are as immutable as the law of gravity itself.

The media only delivers against the expectations and desires of its audience, and as long as people want Tiger to answer the question of “why?” the media will continue to ask the question until it is answered by the only person who knows.

I debated whether or not to share my thoughts on this sad tale…but with two decades in the public relations field, I felt there were important lessons for companies, as well as other high-profile individuals, to take away from Tiger’s fall from grace. PR is much more than simply the creation of fame. It is also crisis management when a corporation – or individual – makes a devastating mistake.

Golf club irons More Of The Tiger Woods Mistresses Count Posted By: Richard Cunningham

What began as an accident report that involved a celebrity with a controversial lifestyle has evolved into one of the biggest scandals this year. While the story is slowly laying low this is a follow up based on the stories previously touched on the subject of several websites. After only a few days since the accident of Mr. Wood, the number of women being linked to him has grown up to more than four alleged mistresses.

The list is as follows; the first is Rachel Uchitel, who works as a hostess in a New York club. This story stirred up the talks about the Woods affairs. She hired a celebrity attorney to clear her name with and announced a press conference which did not actually transpire. And the reason was never revealed.

Rumor has it that there were seven digit negotiations behind the cancellation. She was the first to be in the news and became very popular in tabloids for being the first mistress but recent revelations show earlier affairs between Tiger and other women.

The second Tiger Woods alleged mistress is Jamie Grubbs who works as a cocktail waitress in San Diego. She is also a former Tool Academy contestant. She claimed that she has proof of her affair with Tiger that lasted almost three years. She claims to have slept with Tiger for more than twenty times and that the relationship ended just recently in November 2009. She bared text messages, pictures and played saved voice messages from Tiger.

The third alleged mistress is Kalika Moquin who works as a Las Vegas club manager. Life & Style says she had a short-lived affair with Mr. Woods and that they hooked-up on several occasions when Woods was at Las Vegas. She does not confirm nor deny the allegation.

The fourth so called Tiger Woods mistress is Cori Rist who is a model. There are talks of Mr. Woods spending on her flights to some undisclosed locations for their meetings.

Mindy Lawton adds to the Tiger Woods mistress count. She works as a waitress near Tiger Wood’s Florida property. The contention is that Woods and Mindy do wild intercourse in his mansion when the wife is not at home.

The last on the long list of Tiger’s mistresses to date is Jamie Jungers who used to work for Trashy Girls Lingerie. Jungers claims to have met Woods during a promotional tour in Las Vegas for the Bellagio hotel and casino. The affair purportedly lasted for 18 months. Her story was sold to Britain’s Sunday Mirror, a British tabloid.
