Tiger Woods=Sore Loser

There is no doubt that Tiger Woods is the greatest golfer of our time maybe of all time. But i don't think I'm the only one that thinks he was being a little bit of a sore loser when he failed to make the cut in the Open Championship this past weekend. We saw images of him dropping his club in disgust and even some instances of him hitting his golf bag with his club. Now i don't play golf so i can say how frustrating it is but i can see how it can be. Also take into consideration that the course they are playing is one of the toughest in the world. I know your Tiger Woods but even the best of all time have bad tournaments, and this is only the second time he has missed the cut in his career. Another reason i say he is a sore loser is that for the most part you don't see the other golfers acting like that when they have a bad day or weekend. The game of golf is to difficult to assume your going to go out there and dominate every single weekend even though for the most part Tiger does, which is also why i say he is a sore loser. Tiger has won so many championships and majors one bad weekend isn't going to kill him I'm sure he will bounce back just fine. Now there is a fine line between competitive and sore loser. Some might view his antics and say that he is so competitive that one bad hit upsets him that much and that's fine but i just view it differently. Look i got no problem with Tiger he is the greatest golfer in the world i just think he could handle his failures a little better considering he is the face of his sport.
