you have a point.

i am a very shallow person.  i will admit that.  obesity tends to be a real turn off for me, always has been.  as for tiger, i think what he did off the course was terrible, and i feel badly for how it will impact his kids and wife (of course, living in luxury for the rest of their lives will help...).  that being said, i still love rooting for him and i want him to win.  im sure my fanboyism has a lot to do with his physical look, being in shape, and being a minority as well.

however, you cant argue that many people view non-professional golfers as being out of shape, or at least that its an activity for the less than most physically fit...
