In a statement issued Monday, Tilghman said: "On Friday during our golf broadcast, Nick Faldo and I were discussing Tiger's dominance in the golf world and I used some poorly chosen words. I have known Tiger for 12 years and I have apologized directly to him. I also apologize to our viewers who may have been offended by my comments."
No problem, right tiger?!
Mark Steinberg, Woods' agent, issued a statement declaring the uproar regarding lynching and the first black golfer to win a major title was not a major concern.
"This story is a non-issue," Steinberg said. "Tiger and Kelly are friends and Tiger has a great deal of respect for Kelly. Regardless of the choice of words used we know unequivocally that there was no ill-intent in her comments.
"This story is a non-issue in our eyes. Case closed."
I dunno Tiger. You might be my fellow mixed nut, but I would have to shoot the side eye on this one...

i think this story has the potential to get much larger--especially with Al Sharpton (no, he does not speak for me) recently getting involved...
