    Sky+ed it is it worth a watch ?

    Just watched the end of it there, cut from the same cloth as the old man.

    Low life is a term that springs to mind. Felt for the stripper girl trying to keep it together talking about her abortion and miscarriage. I'm sure there's worse out there and I'd be pretty sure there's a few nippers out there with paid off mothers.

    There's nothing in the documentary that hasn't already been publicised. It's worth a watch though as it stitches everything together nicely. Tiger as the world knew him is dead.

    It's worth a watch just to see what a lunatic his dad was. I mean I knew he was intense but f**k me I never knew he thought tiger was supposed to be the new Buddha. And the blackouts....WTF!!! I really felt sorry for tiger watching it. The guy was never given a chance with an upbringing like that.

    i actually feel a bit sorry for him - he had no life. He was groomed / forced to be a golfer from when he was able to walk. Like in the programme they kept calling him a "machine" which is very true. Sleep / school / golf / sleep etc.

    Like mentioned above, the tiger brand is dead. I'd imagine even nike will struggle to stay with him. Who wants an agressive sex addict as the face of their product?

    No. I don't care about that stuff. I watched the golf.

    I did notice he's moved the ball a little further forward in his stance particularly off the tee. Is this the anti "blocking" device?

    I wouldn't feel a bit sorry for tiger! And if I had his bank account i would buy sympathy if required!

    On the other hand I can't belive some1 actually watched it! I seen it on and laughed, thinking what clown thought it would be a good idea to have that starting as tiger was walking to the first tee in the open!

    Until you've actually bothered your arse to watch the program and it's merits your opinion is pretty meaningless.

    While far from groundbreaking it was actually quite interesting.

    Garbage programme. Garbage channel. Hope he wins us open even if it's unlikely.

    I've got the programme on Sky Plus so won't comment on it until i've watched it. I did see the opening few minutes and it was interesting to note the agendas from the outset. I'll say no more til after it's been watched though.

    Vanity Fair did a great piece on him a few months back which really opened up his world. Not sure if it's available online, but it's well worth a read.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,495 ✭✭✭neckedit


    watched it..... learned nothing new that made me like him more or less, I personally don't give a rusty f**k what the man does outside the ropes. He is still one of the greatest of all time................Now we know he is one off the greatest of all time............who likes rough sex........WOW!

    Was thinking of watching it but went for the US Open instead.

    Might check it out on 4od.
