"Yet they will not be so nonchalantly swatted away when it comes to Dr Anthony Galea."

James Corrigan makes a strong case for why Tiger has many questions to answer on one particular subject.

Golf writers will not want to know about sex-trysting or sex-texting and will likely only make a half-hearted attempt to discover what really went on in the run-up to the fire-hydrant incident. They will sit back when he repeats over and over, "I already answered that in my statement" and figure "ho hum, the news editors would have been happy but I suppose it's got nothing to do with sport". Yet they will not be so nonchalantly swatted away when it comes to Dr Anthony Galea. Indeed, the very fact Woods mentioned the words "performance-enhancing drugs" in his "mea culpa" will only make their inquisitions that much more insistent.

For those of us who had no wish or need to hear his apologies, it was the most startling passage of the soliloquy. "Some people have made up things that never happened," he said. "They said I used performance-enhancing drugs. This is completely and utterly false." Who said he had used PEDs? Nobody in the paid-for media, that's for sure. Tiger might have found a blogger making such an accusation somewhere on the internet, but then if Tiger trawls around the web long enough he will doubtless find himself accused of every violation known to man or beast. No, all the media said was that he had been treated by a doctor who has been implicated in the use of PEDs. The only reason any suspicions may or may not be lingering in the air is because Woods has not been around to address them since the affair first came to light six months ago. His fault. Nobody else's.

And here's why my money is on Tiger never appearing in the media center unless he wins the tournament:

All of these questions should be answered by Woods in Augusta. The Dr Galea connection seems to be perceived as part of the mistresses scandal, particularly after that quite frankly weird denial. It's not. Dr Galea has nothing to do with his private life, but everything to do with his sporting life. Woods has chosen to return at a venue where, he hopes, the emphasis will be solely on sport. So come on then, what's the story? It's time to be honest. About something that undeniably does have some relevance to his career.
