I'm not sure that the current preoccupation with Tiger Woods reflects very well on us, the public. Here's someone who just wishes to do what he does particularly well, and to be judged on that basis. What he does outside his sport is private and none of our business. But it seems we are not prepared for that to be so. We consider him to be public property and as such every aspect of his life is ours to scrutinise, deconstruct and criticise. And the more he retreats into his shell the more vociferous we become and the more insistent that it is our "right to know". Speaking personally, I feel rather ashamed by the whole business.
