“Tiger Woods has no interest in talking about Hank Haney’s tell-all book about his time spent with the former No. 1-ranked player. He made that abundantly clear on Wednesday afternoon during his press conference at the Honda Classic, where he got into a heated exchange with golf writer Alex Miceli over a question about whether Haney’s remarks that Woods wanted to be a Navy SEAL were true.

After Woods told Miceli he’d “already commented on the book” and tried to move on to the next question, Miceli pressed for an answer before Tiger said, “You’re a beauty, you know that?” and ended things with a cold stare and “have a good day” that put a nice little bow on what could be the most awkward Tiger Woods press conference exchange we’ve ever seen.”

The above excerpt is indicative of the type of irresponsible journalism that unfortunately persists in modern times. If a celebrity is unwilling to comment on something, let it go and move on to something worth talking about. I would be more interested in what Tiger has to say about his playing and how he hopes to improve in order to get back to the thrilling “tiger Woods” type of play.
