Tiger Woods is that rarest of people - a public figure who becomes a legend in his own time. In his chosen field of professional golf, he's not only good, he's considered by many to be the best who has ever played the game. Referring to himself as a "Cablinasian", Woods is also an icon of racial diversity. As a marketable commodity he's nonpareil. On top of (US)$80+ million in tour earnings he can add another $920 million income from appearance fees, commercial endorsements, etc. With that accomplishment Woods becomes the first pro athlete to earn a billion dollars. As a true alpha male, he's got an extremely hot wife. In spite of all the above, the legend is human after all.
