Tiger Woods Has a LOT to Answer For
After Daddy and Granddaddy's birthday party, we all passed out in front of the television in a sugar-induced haze. The PGA Championship was on, and, to no one's surprise, Tiger Woods was ahead by 3 strokes. You'd have to be living under an actual rock not to know that by the time Tiger was The Roc's age, he was already hitting perfect drives with a toddler-sized golf club his coach/daddy made for him by sawing off an adult-sized golf club. An inspiring story, but one with somewhat ironic long-term consequences: wander into any major toy store these days and you will find an entire aisle dedicated to kiddie golf gear, for toddlers on up. Either we are raising a generation of champion golfers, or someone is making a Tiger-sized fortune convincing us that we are.
