Should golf fans protest Tiger's return by distracting him in his back swing by shouting "Get in the hole"?
I know that Tiger is the world's best golfer. Quite frankly, I'm not interested in his golf. I know that Tiger can be distracted by crown noise. Just wondering........
Whenever I watch golf on TV (it isn't often) some yahoo (sorry about that Y!A) is always shouting "Get in the hole" whenever a golfer is within range of the green. I'm just wondering what would happen to TW if he got an occasional "G-I-T-H" during his address of the ball or back swing. Do you think that it would disturb him enough to walk off the course and quit the game?
Definition: ya·hoo (yäh, y-) n. A crude or brutish person. [From Yahoo, member of a race of brutes in Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift.]
Change that to "Get in the Ho!"
Or perhaps carrying large posters with a picture of his wife and kids.

I think it's "turn about as fair play". Tiger (not to mention PGA marshals, officials, volunteers and pros) have stood idly by while fans lambasted Sergio when he was going through his regripping issues, heckled Rory Sabbatini and Stephen Ames for comments about Tiger (that were taken out of context), and reveled in the US Ryder Cup team's antics in '08.
Does it make it right? No, but if it's OK in those instances, it's perfectly OK to do it to Tiger.

Should every person who does this or even thinks about this be removed from the golf course and banned from any subsequent PGA Tour events, as well as any tournament, amateur or professional, until they have successfully completed a "golf etiquette and spirit of the game" rehabilitation course? YES.
