He said God Damn one time in four rounds and Nantz is up in arms. There are many more bigger fish to fry than that.
I'm certainly not personally offended by any language, least of all what Tiger may have said on Sunday, BUT, golf is supposed to be different, a GENTLEMAN'S game, where player's are held to the highest standards of any sport, a game where players enforce the rules on themselves.

Do not for a second pretend you are not a bastion of class and integrity while out on the links I know better.

Tiger has brought many great things to the PGA tour, but class and sportsmanship are not 2 of them.

i'm going out on a crappy flat par 63 course tomorrow morning.

maybe i'll curse less knowing it's a gentleman's game. probably not though.

i hate empathizing with billionaires but whatever flaws he has at least tiger woods helped make this somewhat more of an everyman's game.

i'd kick in the balls any of my hacker friends that used "darn" without irony.
