Being paired with Tiger: it's a circus, good and bad

It's a strange experience to be followed by 2,500 people and be completely ignored. The crowd only cares for what he does. Except for maybe 15 big names, this is what you have to accept playing in Tiger's group. Spectators are already pushing ahead as you take your stance, and you know the stampede is going to triple in volume the moment your club strikes the ball. You're part of a moving stadium, and people are playing full contact to get in position to watch his next shot. My wife won't go to the course if I'm paired with him. Though she can watch on TV because I'm guaranteed airtime.
