Tiger Woods brought glamor and popularity to golf and has remained one of the most popular golfers in history. He has won more trophies than most popular golfers dead or alive, with around 96 career victories dating back to 1996, making him a living legend in the world of golf, without whom golf history would never be complete. . His exploits have made many people who never loved the game of golf into ardent fans of the game, and his presence has also brought renowned sponsors to the world of golf.
Just the likes of Pelé, Zinedine Zidane, Diego Maradona, Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Platini, Roger Federer, Serena Williams, Carl Lewis, Gabriel Silesia, Usain Bolt, Ashafa Powell, Michael Phelps, George Weah, Dunga, etc. They enjoy the fame and respect that Tiger Woods enjoys when it comes to the sports world.
Having given much to the world of golf, he does not deserve to take his exit in such an unceremonious manner. He may have done what the world didn’t expect by getting involved in extramarital affairs, but we must remember the popular saying that ‘to err is human but to forgive is divine’, and give him a second chance. We all have our human weaknesses and Tiger Woods, being human, just put his human weakness on display. I in no way endorse what Tiger Woods did, but I feel that abandoning Woods is certainly not the best thing to do to a friend at the time of trials. I think he has learned his lesson the hard way. Tiger Woods has done what he should do: show respect to his family by retiring from golf to put his family in order without exhibiting any kind of arrogance or justifying himself.
The departure of this talented golfer has forced some of his personal sponsors to withdraw their sponsorship.
They are certainly concerned about the image of their big-name companies, but they should also take into account the emotional trauma that their hasty decision adds to the psychological pain Woods is already going through. He really needs your support at this crucial time of trial. They should help clean up his image and persuade him to return to the game that brought him fame and wealth.
Now that Tiger Woods has retired, what about the game of golf? Would the popularity, colors and followers still be there? Who fills the void that his exit has created? We will certainly miss this great hero: Tiger Woods.
