Tiger by the Tail

Tiger Woods has been complaining about celebrity culture in the wake of recent events and revelations.
To a certain extent - he is correct - all things being equal, his business is not our business.
However, things are not equal.

People pay a premium to attend events which feature Tiger Woods, with Tiger getting more than his fair share of those receipts

People pay a premium to watch events on TV which feature Tiger Woods, with Tiger getting more than his fair share of those receipts

People pay a premium to wear his clothes, carry his clubs, play on his courses

These people pay his wages and his sacrifice is...

Wake up Tiger.
