Tiger Woods's life has spiraled out of control since November 2009 when it was discovered he had cheated on his wife with several other women.
His golf career stayed steady at best as he has had five back surgeries, and not as many major wins or even qualifications.
Now unless you've been on Mars, you have seen Tiger's mugshot from his DUI this past Memorial Day weekend. What you may not have seen is the arrest profile. For a number of years now, Woods hasn't wanted to claim the black side of his ethnicity (think Halle Berry). The police report noted the famous golfer to be black.
Now this brings up another issue. If you claim to be biracial, are you suddenly black when you commit a crime (or if you do the worst, like OJ)?
In any event, Tiger doesn't have many strikes left in golf and life. Yes we all make mistakes and are human. But now this has become a pattern that needs to be addressed. He needs to get some positive folks in his corner to humble him, realize there is life beyond golf, and to help him enjoy himself in moderation. He cannot afford to be reckless anymore.
Tiger Woods doesn't want his legacy to go down like this. Adultrer. Has-been. Drunk. He's at a crossroads and it's time he get himself straight. It's the least he can do for his children and for the game of golf.
Meanwhile, unless he still has a personal driver, he better keep Uber and Lyft on speed dial for the time being.
