    Tiger Woods certainly does talk a fantastic game in his media meeting with regards to becoming a lot more respectful to golf, yet his actions spoke considerably louder than his words the moment he missed the Arnold Palmer Invitational. Tiger might have generated a lot of good will simply by doing this tournament. Arnie would likely have handled anything which he could have that can help present Tiger in the best light, but instead Tiger chooses to dismiss one of the legends of the game to do his own thing. Best of luck in the Masters, Mr Woods. Congratulations towards Ernie Els, and also I really hope you do very well on Augusta.
