Celebrities owe their fans only a good performance whether on screen, on the field, on the course or whatever the appropriate venue is. Mr. Woods is known as an exceedingly private person. Media demanding an explanation (yes, I too am curious) and then excoriating him because he chooses not to provide one is, at the very least, totally disrespectful. We have become a society that feels we are owed an explanation for every action and reaction by any person of note. I would dearly love to see how anyone not in the spotlight would react to someone following them 24/7 just to catch them in some sort of compromising position. Give the man his privacy. It truly is none of our business. As an audience we should be concerned with the quality of the performance and, perchance, significant events in their lives. But what they choose to share with us should be up to them.
So did Tiger ever talk to the police? I never heard anything to indicate that he did. It sounds like the cops just gave up. There isn't a non-celeb out there who could get away with blowing off the cops three times.
