Possibly the greatest sportsman of all time, certainly the richest, and with a hot blonde Swedish wife too.

Indeed, but who else could have won the US Open with sheer iron will in the condition he was in?!

I was there in 96, too, incidentally, but I don't member being all that excited about Woods at the time.
