There are plenty of excellent golfers now. Why does he get so much attention? If it was another golfer that won, we wouldnt even know about it.

He's the only one people care about. Golf will pretty much die when he retires. It was dead when he was gone.

OK, why is he the most famous golfer then? Like I said, not the only good golfer around anymore.

Because he dominated a sport for a very long time and the comeback he has made with all his injuries is amazing. There were always good golfers he was just so much better.

People care about Tiger Woods. When he plays, the ratings go up, when he doesn't play, the ratings drop. Even people that aren't big golf fans will watch for Tiger, and many people that don't watch still want to hear about him. And if you want to know why regular folks like him, you'd have to ask them. Everyone gets a little attention when they first get the green jacket, but America went wild for Tiger. And the PGA was happy to go along for the ride when it suited them.

Believe me, if they could make someone else as big as Tiger, they would. PGA has tried to get fans behind other guys. When Jordan Spieth won, they wanted him to be the next big thing. But the average person doesn't care about Spieth, or Kuchar, or Koepka.

It's a shame, because there are some talented folks out there. But despite what some might think, you can't really force these things.

TC specifically keeps saying "good golfers" because he knows there aren't any real great ones. All these young guys get hype after playing out of their mind for one or two majors and then do nothing.

Did any other golfers get major sponsorships from companies like Nike? Also ESPN probably had a lot to do with his popularity.
