Heaven knows what the chic and fashionable of the city, those who used to exercise themselves and their horses on the adjacent Rotten Row, would have made of this. Woods was introduced to Britain's modern royalty of Steve Redgrave and Matthew Pinsent, as well as Natalie Appleton, she of the All Saints. And there was Gary Lineker as host. His sporting prowess was founded on much shorter distances than this. This particular skill has earned Woods a lot of money, and not a bit of it undeserved according to the great man.
Nothing is guaranteed.
Off course might be a different story, but on course we earn every bit. The acquisitiveness will go on. Woods is not embarrassed by the riches he and many in the golfing fraternity have amassed. Whether you're in America or Europe or anywhere round the world we're all looking to make our financial status a little bit better. That's just human nature.
