Arguably one of the worlds biggest sporting fall from grace examples would be Tiger woods.
myself I was never a tiger fan as I thought the bloke was a pig for spitting on greens.
its hard not to judge this bloke as he constantly ****s up in life.

The money this bloke still makes is amazing but
i can't think of a bigger fall in grace in SPORTING life.

Come on dude, sport is full of them. Our heroes have feet of clay. It's just what happens if you don't live a balanced life.

Let's start with Lance Armstrong.
Who's next?

Lance Armstrong and Ben Cuzzy?
In 2016 woodsy was 12th on the forbes highest paid athlete list he had most the year off!
Iam abit baffled by this new dui charge though and Iam inclined to believe his statement that alcohol did not play a part, because clearly he was impaired the police took him in and tigee is not denying being impaired but saying it was the result of a reaction to prescribed meds.
So why no breath test or drug scrren to know exactly what the case is?

Seriously! One DUI charge and media is about to linch him. So what he had a bit on the side a couple of time, drove pissed once, pretty minor. I'm sure a lot have done a lot more. Same old story,. there only human, just humans that can play sport well. Tiger played sport better than most and did so for a long time. Give the guy a break, let his shag some birds and get pissed, he deserves it a years of dedication.

Apparently he's considering spinal fusion so he can play golf without the pain. I feel sorry for him.

After looking after u20s NRL players I've got a fair idea about the ol line,they are only human.
tiger is bordering on losing major contracts as he still won't come out with the truth about his back
close friends have told media he is Gawn.

the truth is he hasn't played good golf since the sex scandal.

The biggest uproar about this whole fiasco is that now it is clear that his eyes are remarkably similar to those of Miss Piggy.

The proof is in a mock up I just whipped up below. Note my superior MS Paint skills, who needs photoshop!

Apparently He refused the requirement to undergo a breath test, here in Oz that means you get charged as if you were driving full drunk/drug affected and I'd imagine the USA is the same. If refusing a breath test carried a lower penalty than the actual drunk driving charge everyone idiot would just drive pissed and refuse a breath test.

Tiger looks like every other drop kick in his mugshot.

Truly Comparing AFL & NRL players as sporting greats of the world.
woods could buy AFL & NRL teams

im talking about the big dogs in WORLD sport like Michael Jordan net worth 1.2 bil not bob smith from Blacktown RSL
that played two games of football mooned a cop and noodie run the local pub
and was paid $90 a game and stuffed it all even lost his sponsor from big al,s meats.

at least get up near a pissy little US100m.

Just before tiger got caught rooting hookers the Victorian gov payed tiger 2mil
Appearance money at the AUS OPEN.

Why does the fall from grace have to be measured in money?? That is a bizarre measure.

There is way worse than Tiger Woods. Definitely Lance Armstrong the world's greatest cheat but I'll nominate Oscar Pistorius the girlfriend killer.

Oh that's right he is innocent....

OJ Simpson, Oscar Pistorius, and recently Aaron Hernandez (NFL), have to be the worst, all 3 are murderers, you can't fall any further than that. Fortunately, Hernandez continued his killing ways by murdering himself.
Money has nothing to do with it, all 3 were superstars.

Tyson pfffft 5% of NRL & AFL Players do that, only difference is popularity and Money
gues that's my point about Tiger. While Tyson goes on to star in more movies.

I have always been of the opinion that the controversy surrounding tiger woods career is related mostly to the fact he plays golf which is a rich people sport. I mean really sleeping around and getting pulled over for d d ????
that wouldn't make headlines if he played basketball or American football. Cut the guy some slack I say

I saw a newspaper with the headline "DUI of the tiger" the press must have just been overjoyed when they came up with that pun
