As a close-ish follower of tennis I believe I am obliged to say that he is a rat.

Couldn't care less about golf or any golfer.

Quite surprised by that. Wasn't thinking you were into that.

I have to concur. Given the whole Wozniacki-McIlroy "scandal", he seems really a bad person.

Whether he's an FF or an HP aside, he's bad for golf in the US. Having him as the face of the game will inevitably shrink the sport at an accelerated rate. Palmer/Nicklaus/Trevino broke down the class barriers, Tiger broke down the social barriers, but then manufacturers and course developers priced normal people out of the game and the new face of the tour is a baby-faced tool from Europe. Not a recipe for success....

He is a working class Northern Irish catholic. Cant Irish-Americans relate to him?

How is he "a tool" anymore than other professional golfers?

I like him fine, but my wife and in-laws really hate him for some reason, so that probably influences me at some level.

Douchebag with a scary amount of talent.  Will probably go down as one of the best ever.
