Tiger's Taking Great Inspiration From The Media?

Jay Coffin notes an interesting Golf Channel Morning Drive discussion where Tiger bud Notah Begay suggested that based on Sunday's post round comments, Tiger takes great inspiration from proving his media critics wrong.

"Well, a lot of media people didn't think I could win again, and I had to deal with those questions for quite a bit," Woods said Sunday. "It was just a matter of time; I could see the pieces coming together."

Begay was asked if he believes Woods keeps score with the media, if he's aware of everything that's said or written about him.

"He doesn't forget what people write," Begay said. "He probably has a list under his pillow that motivates him at night."

Then shouldn't he actually like what the media is doing for his game? Maybe send down some champagne after a victory? You know, a little something for the effort?
