Correction: Tiger Did NOT Crown The AT&T Champion
/I posted Joe Ogilvie's tweet yesterday about Tiger impressively sticking around to crown AT&T National Champion Nick Watney, unfortunately no one in the media actually saw or documented this epic moment in tournament hosting lore. From a lens lugger who was at Aronimink:
I must tell you that there are some very confused still photogs out here... I was at the trophy presentation on 18 green after the round. No sign of Eldrick. No pics of it on Getty, pgatour.com, or TW's site. Every photog I've contacted is just as flummoxed as I am. Did we really blow it? Or was this just some Butler-cabinesque made-for-CBS thing that nobody on the golf course got to see?
I reviewed the telecast and there was only David Feherty's fluf, errr....interview.
We'd heard he was on-property yesterday, but nobody I know who was at the public presentation on the actual golf course saw Tiger, let alone him presenting anything. In fact, we were all discussing the fact that he wasn't there, and wondering where he was, while we were shooting the presentation.
