Tiger Woods shared photos of him and new girlfriend Lindsey Vonn for a simple reason.
“Well, it’s very simple. We’re very happy where we’re at, but also we wanted to limit the stalk‑a-razzi and all those sleazy websites that are out there following us,” Woods said Wednesday at Bay Hill. “I’ve had situations where it’s been very dangerous for my kids and the extent they’ll go to. We basically devalued the first photos. Unfortunately, that’s just the way it is in our society right now, and we felt like it was the best thing to do. I’m very happy about it.”
The paparazzi won resoundingly in 2009 and early 2010 after Woods hit that fire hydrant the night after Thanksgiving. So let’s call it: Paparazzi 1, Tiger 0.5.

- Nikon Golf has signed Ian Poulter as a spokesman for its new line of laser rangefinders. Make these competition legal, USGA!
