The world applauds a winner but derive more fun in ridiculing a fallen hero. Even a sage is susceptible to falling prey to the three temptations – wine, women and money.
World's number one golfer Tiger Woods is no sage but for a long part of his career, he was considered as one until that fateful evening when his car rammed into a tree. What followed next was the disclosure of a series of infidel acts committed by the legend.
Today, Woods has become the butt of all jokes, the favourite whipping boy for one and all. With his image gone for a toss, Woods took an indefinite break from golf to redeem himself and also save his marriage.
A few ago, Woods came out of his shell to apologise for his immoral acts and also announce his return to the sport. However, critics still doubt Woods' intent as they reckon the apology isn't genuine but just a PR exercise to salvage his image.
We asked few of our celebrated TV stars as to is this apology genuine or a PR exercise?
Kritika Kamra: Honestly speaking, it doesn't really matter whether it's genuine or a PR exercise. The fact is you don't really need to apologise to the whole world because majority of the people will not believe it. Personally, I was very disappointed with his infidelity and its fans like me who Tiger owes an explanation. Besides, I think this issue has been hyped way too much just because Tiger is a celebrated figure. There's no denying what's he's done is totally wrong but it's not our duty to judge him. Leave that to his family and friends.
Karan Kundra: Well, I don't know him personally but from the look of it, the apology appears to be genuine. You can see the guilt on his face. He is indeed very sorry for his actions. Ideally, this issue shouldn't be blown out of proportion. Whatever he does in his personal life should not be mixed his professional achievements. At the end of day, he's a golfer and one should respect that. Besides who are we to comment on his apology. If his wife has forgiven him then no one else can question it? Also, I don't think Tiger is being victimized because he's an African American. Former US President Bill Clinton, who is a much bigger figure than Woods, wasn't spared thus the race angle is immaterial.
but he owes an apology to his family and friends.
