So, you know.

Yeah, it was kind of a striking thing, wasn't it, when the police report said that Woods told the officers he's had seven back operations and 20 leg operations.

Points I'd be fascinated for your opinion of as, you know, a former player, as a media observer and a participant in the media as well, is the extent to which Tiger has been handled with kid gloves by the media over certainly the last 10, 15 years.

Look, he was in a bad way, so maybe it wasn't the priority at the moment to take a blood sample.

But, you know, there's no indication as to what was in his system.

But equally, the black box in his SUV suggests that, you know, he crossed several lanes of traffic and down a ravine and kept his foot on the accelerator the entire time.

No, it's very difficult.

I don't know how much time you've ever spent with him or your feel for him as a person.
