Tiger Woods is taking a break from golf


He issued an apology to the public yesterday, feeling that he had betrayed his family as well as his investors. Moreover, he said he would suspend from playing golf indefinitely. Recently, many high profile celebrities and public figures have fallen from grace due to their infidelity. Talk show host David Letterman, Former South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford, and Presidential candidate John Edwards were all scorned by the public for their extramartial affairs. However, nobody has fallen so hard like Tiger did. Is that because of his racial background that America has spent extra efforts punishing him.? Yes, he cheated and lied. Elin was hurt. Immediately after Tiger confessed his infidelity, the media scourged him for the number of women he meddled with. To the contrary, none of the others have gone on to the extent to suspend their careers. David Letterman is still hosting the Late Night Show, Mark Sanford is still the governor, and John Edwards had a baby with his mistress and Elizabeth remains married to him. Most of all, nobody has suggested that any of them need treatment for their sex addiction.

Do you think Tiger is being punished too harshly?
