How was it possible for Tiger Woods, among the world’s most scrutinized professional athletes, to keep his infidelity secret for so long?
Just about everyone is at a loss: the golf writers who banter with Woods (when he allows it), golf fanatics who can tell you which way his golf ball’s Nike logo was facing when Woods chipped it into the 16th hole in the final round of the 2005 Masters, paparazzi whose paid informants can sniff out a straying spouse a mile away.
The LA Times asks the questions.
As we noted earlier, the discretion of Woods’s mistresses and their friends may be the most impressive part of the whole crazy story.
