Tiger Woods

I don't know much about golf other than Tiger Woods is really good and Phil Mickelson is pretty good as well.  I've never sat down for more than 30 minutes and watched a meaningful amount of golf to understand why players hit the ball with a certain club a certain distance away from the hole.  However, I have been around long enough to know that Tiger Woods made golf very popular, even though its always been a popular sport around the globe.  His dominance since joining the games elite has been unmatched for years.  At least until his eventual divorce with his wife after a cheating scandal that involved numerous different women.  Since this event, his popularity has dropped significantly.  He still maintains a massive fan base, and for good reason.  As fans, we shouldn't be looking so much into Tiger's personal life.  Golfers and fans should continue to look up to Tiger as a tremendous golf player.  His personal life is his own business, and we shouldn't be concerned with what he does off the golf course. It is because of Tiger Woods that golf has reached new heights in terms of competition and media attention.  Other golfers are driven to improve their games because of players like who raise the bar for standards on the golf course.
