Tiger Sorely Missed by Golf Fans…and Strippers
Professional golf’s first tournament of 2010, the Farmers Insurance Open held at Torrey Pines in La Jolla, California this past weekend, was unusual for a number of reasons:
1) Legend Phil Mickelson was accused of “cheating” for using Ping wedges that were made 20 years ago with square grooves that the U.S. Golf Association now outlaws for professional golf.
2) Perceived has-been Ben Crane came from behind to win his first tournament since 2005.
3) Golf phenom Tiger Woods was noticeably absent, and the legions of golf fans weren’t the only one missing him. A small prop plane circled the gorgeous, cliffside Torrey Pines course all day Thursday, tugging a banner that read, “We miss you Tiger! Déjà vu Showgirls.” On Friday, another airplane soared overhead, dragging its own banner: “We miss you too Tiger at Dreamgirls.”
While golf fans might simply be bored watching the game without its star, it seems that local strippers might be missing their mortgage payments without their #1 client making it rain at their clubs.
The question on everyone’s mind: When will the master return?
