Caught by tail

Funny, I always thought Tiger was chasing the Golden Bear's record of 18 major titles, how silly of me.

After the revelations of the past month or so, which have been sordidly splattered all over TV, newspapers, radio, the internet and have probably even reached a few other planets in our solar system, it seems Jack Nicklaus's mark is mere chicken feed to our boy 'Tige', who is really after Wilt the Stilt's legendary record of 20,000 women.

The world's greatest active golfer is well and truly on the back nine now in terms of dalliances revealed (14 at the latest count) but sadly for the former Mr Squeaky Clean, such play comes at a price; namely hush money to former conquests, the loss of sponsors, the potential departure of his wife and two kids (and possibly $350 million in alimony) and also his once pristine image.
