I know probs my less about golf than any e on here. I have spent a lot of time at the driving ranges having fun, and played maybe 54 total holes in my life. Most of those I can't remember due to alcohol consumption.
But Tiger woods has brought a sport that was an afterthought to most folks, and made it into a common discussion poiny. He was a badly needed infusion of youth and qe11.
He brought new players, new dollars, and a new energy to the game.
Anyone that doesn't think he was good for the sport is just plain wrong.
