Tiger Cell Phone Issues #PGA

Hey, it's Tiger, I need you to do me a huge favor.

Put Mark Calcavecchia at the front of the line on guys that Tiger will never speak to again.

Calcavecchia is the first person to go on the record saying that Tiger was acting strangely before he turned from ‘world’s greatest athlete’ into ‘TMZ target #1’.

From Golf.com:

"I didn't really think about it, but in the course of last year he changed his number five times," says Tiger's one-time texting buddy Mark Calcavecchia. "The last time he did, I said, 'Man, you change phone numbers more than I change underwear.'"

Nice knowing you Calc. We all know that Tiger is so forgiving. He will let that one slide, I’m sure. Tiger always likes it when people make him look bad. That’s why he has so many close friends on tour, because that is the sort of guy that he is.

Calcavecchia continued...

"I did know of a girl he was seeing in Phoenix," he says. "But I didn't know the time frame. I didn't know if it was before or after he was married that he was with her. I knew it was close. It was 2004 sometime. I didn't think much of it then..."

Perfect. I don’t think Tiger will be hitting you back with any more texts Calc. Tiger holds grudges from grade school, but you clowning him for changing his number and maybe for having a side woman in Phoenix should go over very well. I'm sure he’s laughing right now.

Golfers are athletes.

You wonder if this is how it is going to go from here in relation to Tiger and his fellow pros. Are they going to start saying, ‘you know, now that I think about it, the fact that he was in Vegas every other weekend was kind of weird. I always thought it was kind of strange that he liked to watch Tool Academy alone. Makes a lot more sense now.’

Trust me, Tiger learned the cell phone dance. He isn’t going to have to change his number anymore. I am sure he is going to show up at all Tour events with a bandolier full of cell phones strung across his shoulders. One for Elin, one for his agent, one for his friends, and one for , uh you know, other friends.

Tiger isn’t stupid. He isn’t going to three putt the cell phone trap again.

  • There's another sponsorship potential for the New Tiger: Nokia. Or T-Mobile. He can actually be that T-Mobile guy that Luke Wilson's making fun of in the AT&T commercial with two phones at once.
