    Tiger Woods is Edited

    By aquahealer  |  Posted February 7, 2012  |  coral springs, Florida
     
    The TV coverage of Tiger Woods at the Abu Dhabi golf championship was edited on the final day of the tournament. After he birdied the 2nd and 3rd holes the Golf Channel went to a commercial break. Tiger was in the lead tied with Robert Rock. When they came back from commercial break they skipped the next two holes of which Tiger Woods bogeyed and fell out of the lead. Why was that edited out? Did he play so terribly that the Golf Channel couldn't show it on TV? Was it too embarassing to show this footage? This is just too crazy for me to believe that Tiger Woods' fall from the lead had to be edited out to....??? What are the answers? To save someones ass? To save the game of golf? To save Tigers fan base? To help the Golf Channels ratings? To send propaganda-like messages to the public that even sporting events can be edited to change your perception of what's actually happening? I have no idea, but I would be pretty interested if someone was able to find out the truth.
