Tigers tantrums continue at the Masters

In the past, when Tiger Woods (pictured) was a crowd and media favorite, reporters largely downplayed his club throwing and cursing during tournaments.

A report at the second link below says:

There is no question that Tiger is bad for golf, the game, but his behavior has been downplayed or ignored altogether by the media because Tiger is supposedly good for golf, the business.

Tiger was unable to control his emotions Saturday at the 74th Masters. He blasted out curses on several bad shots while staying in contention.

Woods unleashed a profane tirade during a run of three bogeys in four holes on the front nine, failing to live up to his goal of curtailing the curses out of respect for golf before eventually regaining his composure and shotmaking.
