Odds World Rankings President Cup Stand. Tiger Woods hit New Orleans for a clinic for 125 kids, and everyone wanted to see him. Calls flooded the mayor's office, the groups sponsoring the clinic and television stations, most begging for tickets. Woods only wanted to see the kids. He doesn't want to diminish the experience for the kids, though.
Woods turns even the rich and powerful to putty.
They long for a wave, a word, a wink or even a glance. On Monday, the New Orleans police chief shouldered past news photographers to take pictures of Woods. City councilmen worked their way past the barricades for a chance to see him. Local celebrities gawked like kids. To discourage the hoards, Woods was flanked by his own security men beginning with a dinner and auction Sunday night that benefited the Tiger Woods Foundation.
