Mundundu: Elin should have, perhaps, divorced him, if claims about his affairs were indeed true,not clubb him.
My husband doesn’t come from a well-off family, he worked his way. As a University student, he even worked as a barman so it’s not about class but breding. If you notice, many people from Europe, when they go to America, end up working in blue-collar jobs (esp men) even if some of them have University degrees!
Class is not about your job or income, it’s about breeding. Not that I am promoting classism-just a point of information.

Bongikosi – Tiger is the biggest story on the planet!

Everyone is fascinated about why the guy who has it all still needs a bit more.

Clowns like me maybe but Tiger with that wife, career and money?

“As a specialised criminal attorney ” as you so humbly put it, don’t you have any better topic to analyse ? The dullest piece you’ve submitted yet, Traps.

@Phillipa

My, what airs, my sister. Did you also have to call Tiger ‘a charming old guy’?!?

@Traps

This thing is messed up. So do you REALLY need to rub the salt in the wound by ANALYSING IT the way you have? Man/woman stuff is complicated……I can just feel the sniggers and the silence around domestic violence because it was allegedly meted out on a man! As if it mustn’t be condemned….. I sigh in shame at all of us. I really thought that as South Africans we would be more sensitive about the situation….It is the 16 Day Activism time of reflection AGAINST domestic violence (amongst other things), people!!!

Traps, now that you’re carving a niche for yourself as a Tabloid columnist(LOL), why don’t you blog about these two:

And while you’re at it, I would like to know what Demi Moore has to saya bout Tallulah-Belle’s underage drinking and “child-pornography” claims.

It’s none of our business and this is the reason so many people have stopped buying ‘news’papers; the media expect us to pay for this sort of drivel. If you want this sort of stuff, a different sort of paper should publish it and that’s what you’d buy.

phillipa –

… might have climbed up the ladder of affluence but you can’t buy class. … is still an abrasive, ill-bred, catty … who needs to learn how to act decently.

i’m guessing you don’t know this, but you’ve just described eldrick as well. clearly, your husband’s bmw and living in rondebosch hasn’t granted you entree to the people that run around with tiger or actually have to compete with him.

a friend of mine who caddied to pay his way through his expensive university did a cost/benefit assessment and realized he could make more as a PGA caddy than using his MBA. so he does. and the talk among caddies is that eldrick is one of the nastiest, foul-mouthed, assaholic players on the tour whose personality is only tolerated because he wins so much.

the tiger from adverts? an act.

The seriousness of the situation will be clear if the journo’s can mention what club was used. I would think a Big Bertha would mean an open fly, lipstick on the dipstick, a putter on the other hand would mean giving a chick a lazy eye.

What useless info.
