Australian billionaire: Stay away, Tiger Woods




Australian billionaire and Palmer Coolum Resort golf resort owner Clive Palmer, says the following about the former number one golfer in the world:

"Tiger Woods isn't the No 1 golfer in the world any more. We don't want to look backwards, we want to look forwards. So why would you get Tiger Woods here? I would prefer to have Peter Senior than Tiger Woods. I am sure Peter Senior could beat Tiger Woods on a good day. I am sure he could. Tiger Woods has improved a lot but he's an emotional wreck and he's not a good example for kids, anyway."
