He's part of an investment group that's in talks to buy TM. Honestly, it sounds like a smart business decision. Dozens, if not hundreds of athletes have invested in their respective sports, especially post-retirement. Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Oscar De La Hoya, Mario Lemieux, Warrick Dunn, etc. Tiger has never struck me as a businessman, but neither did Jordan and Johnson. It seems to me like he's starting to think about life after the PGA. 

Now do I think Tiger will be in the lab adjusting lofts? Absolutely not. But I think he'll throw in his two cents when needed.  

I'd love to have this retirement plan.

Interesting. Would TM stand for Tigermade?

Or he might be buying it so he can have a club sponsor.

Has anyone heard of this term called 'loan'? . Don't think you have to be worth ALL of it if you have brand name collateral. TW name would be worth a significant amount of the collateral.

I was only speaking on the rumor. You know, like everyone else in this thread. 

Like I said, the rumor is he's part of an investment group.
