As of this writing, the final television ratings for the PGA Championship have not been released. It doesn't matter. They will be high because Tiger Woods won. They always are. Tiger might be on the verge of one of his dominating runs, when he seems to win every tournament he enters and a few he doesn't. And if it happens, some people will complain that Tiger is sucking the fun out of golf. They will be in the minority. Most people want Tiger to win. They want him to win big. He is exempt from two standard portions of the sports fan's charter: that we cheer against Goliath — unless that Goliath happens to be on the hometown team — and that we prefer competition that comes down to the final seconds. http://msn.foxsports.com/golf/story/7115226 Tiger is incredible. I used to hate golf, until I watched Woods win his final amateur match.
