On Monday afternoon, a goateed Tiger Woods faced more than 200 members of the media for his first public press conference since the Thanksgiving night accident that blew the lid off his scandalous secret life.
There were no restrictions on topics -- well, no spoken restrictions. Augusta National has a way of making its genteel voice heard louder than any scream. A reporter who tried to get too cutesy, a reporter who tried to embarrass Tiger or Augusta National -- well, the Powers That Be at Augusta "would not look favorably," as their parlance goes, on such a transgression.
And the result was a model of press conference decorum. Woods' demeanor was relaxed, confident, at ease. He was far more smooth than in his previous public appearances, and he no doubt won back many critics. That smile there at right? That's a pretty good snapshot of how the entire press conference went. There was honesty, light humor, and a sense of respect for both the game and the process.
