Tiger Woods says he’s feels better now than he has in years, and it looks as if he may have finally turned the corner. Of course, no one really wanted to talk much about that at his season opening presser in Abu Dhabi yesterday. Reporters were more interested in his thoughts on Hank Haney’s book about him. A book Woods has already called “unprofessional.” Let’s just say the cat wasn’t exactly the consummate professional in addressing those questions. His responses included, “No”. “I don’t know.” “One might say that.” And “I think I’ve answered all the questions already on that.”

Think again, E. You’re just pulling up to the driving range. Wait until the book actually drops, right before The Masters, and the media has had the chance to read it cover to cover. And starts citing passages. Answered all the questions? You haven’t answered any of them yet. And every time you bristle and go one word answer, Hank sells another hundred books. And if he makes a mint writing about you and golf, how long before someone knocks out a book about the things everyone really cares about. Namely, everything else.
Lighten up, Cat: it will be never be the way it used to be. Just do what you’ve never done in your life and try to roll with it.
