Sources: Tag Heuer Not Yet Developing Dual Watch/Buddhist Bracelet

I'm sure Leno, Letterman and everyone else will have fun with the cutaway shot of Tiger's new Buddhist bracelet (he swears it will never come off). Naturally, the cynic in me smells a possible first Golf Digest instruction tip: "How I Gained 10 mph of Clubhead Speed With a Rubber Band-Like Thing On My Wrist."

Jim McCabe at Golfweek didn't have his heart warmed like I did when Kelly Tilghman ended her interview with the bracelet talk.

It’s impossible to think they could have asked every question to satisfy everyone’s appetite, but we surely could have been spared Tilghman’s ridiculous ending: Asking Woods about the Buddhist bracelet.

Really, really weak, Kelly.

Actually, not to go all Holly Hunter in Broadcast News on you here, but if you watch the ESPN interview, it was a one-camera setup. The Golf Channel clearly had a two camera operation, yet even with one camera trained on Kelly Tilghman and one on Tiger, we got a shot of the Buddhism bracelet. So even though they only had 5 minutes, Tiger was able to clear time in his schedule so that camera A could get a shot of the bracelet. A shot that was subsequently edited into the interview.

Either way, let's hope he gets something better than that little rubber band. Maybe a light bodhi seed-encrusted one, or maybe some moss agate and rose quartz. Or maybe just a nice assortment like this (though Swoosh branded of course):
