Not a shocker to me, Stevie probably wanted some work and who knows when Tiger will come back. It will interesting though to see if this was a bad break-up because Im sure Stevie could make a mint on writing a book about Tiger and all of his hidden secrets.

Well, from what the article says Tiger told him at the AT&T a few weeks ago, but they both kept it quiet until now.

Stevie did not seem very happy and seemed genuinely surprised by this move.

That blows my long standing plans for giving Eldrick the needle.

I already have my tickets for the 2012 U.S. Open at Olympic. Shortly after the whole Tiger imbroglio broke wide open, I knew there would come a time at a big event when me and one or more of my buddies would be standing in very close proximity to Tiger and Stevie, and I was definitely going to turn to my pal(s) and say discreetly but loudly enough for everyone to hear, "Stevie never knew what was going on," and leave it at that.

Oh, well.

On the course!
I wanna know when Stevie is going to kiss Tiger good-bye forever?

Seems kinda stupid to say Woods gave him "permission" to tote Scott's bag because Scott 'didn't have anyone' this week.

How the hell do you not have a loop for a Major? Gimmie a break.

Williams has to go where there is a steady paycheck, and Woods isn't a provider of that anymore.

I posted this during the US Open. You had to know that something smelled funny at that time.

The key I believe can be found below. Tiger could sense Stevie no longer had any respect for him --and certainly didn't want his wife thinking they shared similiar values.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++

The relationship began showing signs of strain after Woods crashed his car on Thanksgiving night, followed by stunning revelations of serial adultery.
Despite their friendship, Williams went months without hearing anything from Woods. And it became awkward at times because Woods' ex-wife and Williams' wife were close friends. On the golf course, their body language looked different, and Williams wondered aloud in the spring if the player-caddie relationship was getting stale.
