Tiger sells!! The PGA knows that, the golf world knows that, and any industry associated with golf knows that. And they will beat it to death until it stops selling. The touring pros love it too because the purses, that used to be obscene, are now boardering on decadent. It’s simple. Tiger sells!!

I'd love to watch a golf tournament and have the mass media following Jack Nicklaus (correct spelling) and Byron Nelson, that would be entertaining. We could watch Jack sitting in a chair and watch Byron's tombstone. Maybe they should follow Bobby Jones and Arnold Palmer too. Face it, Tiger is the best that there is, may end up being the best ever. TV viewership increases by at least 40% when Tiger plays and is in contention. Viewership = $$$, so follow the money!

And, incase you don't watch other sports, the mass media always talks about current people. Maybe because he is one of, if not the best in the game.
