Tiger Woods Chucks Driver Into Gallery

Tiger Woods won the Australian Masters Sunday, and for his troubles he got a see-through globe and a mustard yellow jacket. And unlike John Daly's appearance at the Australian Open last December, Woods made it through four rounds without having to smash anybody's camera.

Instead, he chucked his driver into the gallery after a poor tee shot during Saturday's round. Video indictment of his blatant disregard for human life after the jump.



This is sure to incite the "Tiger doesn't respect the game AND he clearly hates Australia" faction. As long as nobody gets hurt, Woods can wear jorts and a wife beater, curse after every shot and have Stevie pour him beers out of the kegerator built into his bag and I'd have no problem with it. I mean, Daly's made a decent living with that approach.

Treating the spectacle with the seriousness it deserves, Sports by Brooks draws a parallel between Tiger's actions and that of Judge Smails.

Golf.com's Mike Walker wonders why more hasn't been made of Tiger's club toss and he suggests that Woods' people might have intervened. Perhaps. Or maybe people don't think it's a huge deal.

In related news: Tiger also curses.
