Golf Clubs – Ryder Cup – Tiger Talk
Golf Clubs � Ryder Cup � Tiger Talk
It seems the man can do no wrong with his golf clubs, Tiger Woods may be the biggest media star, but the team still lost to Europe .
Golden Golf Clubs
Perhaps it's a sign of the times, but the culture of the celebrity has well and truly arrived in the world of golf. Although the sport has always had its legends, the effect Tiger Woods can have is more like a movie or pop star. This was clear at this year's Ryder Cup - before Woods had even picked up his golf clubs a media frenzy ensued.
Ryder Cup Media
Woods, the world number one, appeared at the Ryder Cup Media Center in September before the tournament had even begun when he expressed his desire to take his golf clubs and lead the American Team from the front.
Media Stampede
As soon as the announcement was made that Tiger Woods was in the Ryder Cup Media Center , journalists charged in � it was golf clubs at dawn. Woods, like Beckham, is one of the most celebrated and famous sportsmen across the globe.
Tiger Talk
Many sporting experts think Tiger Woods has changed the sport � media pundits analysed every movement he made with his golf clubs at the Ryder Cup - everybody wanted a piece of him. Woods is a dream come true for the advertising executives, and his opinion on the Ryder Cup is the most sought after � everyone who manufactures golf clubs, golf fashion or anything related to the sport want Woods as the face of their product.
Leader
But despite Tiger Woods announcing his wish to lead the team at the Ryder Cup and despite being the world number one with his golf clubs, Woods hasn't won points for the Cup so far.
�It's disappointing that I haven't won points on the Cups that I've been on,� Woods said at the Ryder Cup Media Center . �Unfortunately I've gone on the wrong end of it too many times. It's frustrating because you feel like you've not only let yourself down but you've let your team mate down that your playing with, your partner, as well as your team mates that are trying to win this Cup for our Captain and our country. It's very disappointing.�
Tiger Lost
And this year the Ryder Cup went to the European team despite the Americans boasting some of the world top players who ever picked up a set of golf clubs � including Jim Furyk and Phil Mickelson.
