The take here is that honest emotion is fine as long it doesn't hurt anyone else. That said, Woods surely will be less animated when he's 40 and more mature.

The charisma of Karrie Webb, the hottest player in the world, has been questioned. But the most important thing for a golfer is to let the clubs do the talking.
