Tiger Woods 'Stepping Away' from Golf to Seek Treatment; Pleads Not Guilty to DUI

Narrative B

While it's good for Woods that he's stepping away and concentrating on his health, as that's exactly what he needs, it raises questions about where it leaves the sport of golf. For decades, it has relied on his stardom to generate profits and ratings. However, it's probably time to recognize that Woods is no longer capable of that role and that the sport has to move in a new direction.
