What amazes me is that everytime drug use/testing in golf comes up, Tiger's name isn't too far behind. Now, I'm not a Tiger Woods superfan, but think about this:
1. He's only 180-185, at 6 feet tall. That is not very big at all. I doubt he would have needed steroids to get to that size. I repeat, he's not big.
2. He's been lifting for at least 10 years. I would be really disappointed if he, with his drive and resources, didn't look like he does after 10+ years of lifting weights.
Tiger's physique stands out because of his peer group. Golfers, in general, don't tend to look like he does, although that's changing. If he were in a different sport besides golf, we'd be talking about his need to put on weight, rather that making him sound like some overly muscled freak of nature. He's only 20 pounds heavier than when he came on tour. I know that sporting news in the last 5 years or so has really been pounding us with the steroid issue, especially the American favorite pastime, but it's overboard to accuse any well-built individual of using pharmaceuticals to get there. Unfortunately, that's where we are at this stage.
