I have a lot of respect for Tiger Woods. He is extremely talented but seems to be a pretty normal bloke, even though he gets so much attention but I agree, leave it alone already. Our media really sucks. They get hold of a story and flog it to death and just keep repeating the same stories over and over again. That is why I watch a lot of DVDs instead of TV.

He's good at getting a ball in a hole, but why do they pay him so much for it?😵💫

For starters - i HATE golf
That said, when they bought LA Galaxy out to play Sydeny FC everyone thought it would be a dead rubber - except for Beckham
82,000 at Homebush
Tiger is a draw card.
Not my cup of tea, but if it gets people out and about, bring it on 👍

As talented as Tiger Woods is, does he deserve all that money considering his sport isn't exactly "strenuous" or a "work out"...... I would think a marathon runner would deserve more money or any other sport thats hard on the body. He swings a lump of steel ounce every 10 minutes and makes more money in each swing than most people make in a year🙅 not fair

I just hate the radio going off in the morning telling me that Tiger Woods has farted or whatever.....
Seems like they report just about everything the guy does!

I'm a very part time golfer,yet to get Tiger out here paying 3million squid,i think thats a bit ridiculous,though a very smart marketing exercise by the Vic government (A sold out Aussie open? Bloody hell)
He's the first sports BILLIONAIRE and doesnt need the cash.
I'd say he got less than a quarter of that with the rest going to his managers,accountants,PR people etc etc.
It begs the debate, Are sports people really worth their earnings?
Schumacher $26million per year from Ferrari PLUS endorsements from his personal sponsors equated to over $50 million PER YEAR! He's STILL getting shitloads.
That stupid big mouthed dickhead LLeyton Hewitt.He's worth a fortune and whats he done lately? I really hate that guy.
All the AFL top players,are they worth their earnings? After all,they just play football
Beckham,is he worth it?
Doohan,was he worth it?
Personally,Doohan deserved every single penny he got as i know what he had to go through to get to where he got
I raced Superbikes at a decently high national level and did pretty well.
I had two teams asking me to ride for them and I took the best deal.I'm sure anyone woulda done the same thing.
Get what I mean?
These sports people are worth what someone is prepared to pay for them,and although i personally think its a bit over the top,i wouldnt knock it back,Would you?
Tiger got bums on seats,that was the goal
Mission accomplished

So they just robbed every tax payer and gave this money to someone who doesn't need it and in the process added 3million squid to the trade deficit. Nice work 😠...paying 3million squid,i think thats a bit ridiculous,though a very smart marketing exercise by the Vic government (A sold out Aussie open? Bloody hell)

Tiger = living legend. The event brought $20 mil to the local economy so it was a smart move bringing him over. I don't normally watch a lot of golf on TV but I did this weekend. 😊

I heard somewhere over the weekend that for a round of golf with tiger itll cost 1million.
But like others have said it cost 3mil to get him here and raised around 20mil.
Thats a profit for victoria of about 17million. Smart Move.

How did it raise 20mil? Not being a smartarse, just like to know. Is that what locals paid for tickets to see him (after giving him 3mil) or what?

Yeah mate.
It was ticket sales and interstate fans paying for accomodation,meals, general income for the state etc etc
It was a windfall for the government bean counters and local business owners getting more business than usual I'd say.
Like any big sporting event any state puts on. If its a viable option with estimated attendances,interstate and overseas visitors,theyll take a chance and put up the cash.
I dare say you wont get back your contribution to the 3 million though!

So none of the estimated 20 mil would have been seen by the organisers if TW hadn't been there ? I hardly think that's the case, still if I was in a position to have that sort of money donated to me then I wouldn't say no, it sure makes me wonder in a sort of angry disapointed way though when I hear of this sort of excess , after all it's not realy such a great acomplishment to hit a ball around a golf course, when you compare it with the achievement of those doctors who operated on and separated those cojoined twins yesterday, now they realy deserve to be paid that sort of dollars.👍

The organisers wouldnt have seen that sorta cash but they wouldve generated a decent income
The government and small businesses wouldve been the greatest winners.
I whole heartedly DONT agree with paying some bloke 3 million to hit a golfball for 4 days,though as a part time golfer myself,he is bloody good at it and amazing what he can do!
I'm told that coupla years ago, there was only 20,000 tickets sold to the Oz open.With TW there,they sold (reportedly) 100,000,so the host club WOULD have benefited a bit thats for sure
