    Did anyone see the documentary on Channel4 last week?
    I was shocked by how his was viewed and treated by his father. His father decided during the Vietnam war that he would have a son who would change the world through golf before Tiger was born. He had him practicing for up to 8 hours a day from the age of 6. He used military psychological strategies on him. I felt very sorry for Tiger by the end of it!

    Yeah it was a strange documentary. I thought the journalist who was interviewed in his car during the diner waitress story was extremely arrogant. He thought he was something in all the presidents men or something. Very annoying.

    Don't cry too many tears for him.....

    I've seen him and Earl together and they seemed to have a great relationship. They lived next door, his mum is still there.
    Maybe he's just angling for sympathy, ya think?
    Most kids with a Military Dad, including my husband, get used to military psychological strategies.
