| + | '''Eldrick Tont Woods''' (born 1975), who goes by his nickname, Tiger, is a professional [[golf|golfer]]. He is perhaps the most self-centered and overpromoted favorite of the [[liberal media]] in the world. He appears frequently on magazine covers and Nike ads despite not having won a major tournament in years. His remarks to the press are often self-centered. At the Masters in 2013 he was given merely a two-stroke penalty for a rules infraction that many felt should have resulted in disqualification from the tournament.<ref>http://omg.yahoo.com/blogs/celeb-news/tiger-woods-responds-disqualification-controversy-masters-lindsey-vonn-161536057.html</ref> |

After he learned that people did not appreciate that, he declared:<ref>http://www.augusta.com/masters/story/news/latest-news/woods-offers-apology-masters-behavior</ref> |

| + | Despite showing promise of becoming the greatest golfer ever, Woods's career and athletic achievement slumped amid reports of adultery. His wife subsequently obtained a divorce.<ref>http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100219/ap_on_sp_go_ne/glf_tiger_woods</ref> |
