In professional sport leagues there are some of the greatest athletes in the world competing against each other. Although the athletes are great on the field, there are many cases where athletes have off field issues. Most people think that there would never be a professional golfer with off field issues. Little do people know golfers have been found guilty for cocaine usage, alcoholism, gambling, and cheating on their wives. Tiger Woods is most famous for having off the course issues. Tiger has been found guilty for cheating on his wife. In 2009 Tiger Woods career went downhill after he got caught sleeping with 121 girls. "Woods shocked fans in December 2009 when he publicly admitted to cheating on his now ex-wife Elin Nordegren."http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/06/10/tiger-woods-reputation_n_3417137.html Tiger was in the prime of his career before his cheating scandal took place. He was winning all kinds of tournaments and majors. Everyone thought he was going to be the greatest golfer to ever live. Tiger still to this day is chasing Jack's record of 18 majors. Tiger stands at 14 majors and as sad as it to say I do not think he is going to break the record. Tiger does still have many opportunities to break the record, but he is running out of time due to his injuries. Tigers last major win was the US Open in 2008 and that was before he was caught cheating. Sports writers who say "Tiger can't win without his girls" might have been joking, but Tiger literally can not win without his girls. According to the numbers, Tiger has not won a major after he was caught and only won 3 tournaments since being caught. Tiger Woods has been in the decline of his career ever since the big cheating scandal in 2009.
