Seriously? So while he's chipping and putting, what happens if the kid wants to play hide and seek. Or chasey. or squirt gun, or fly a kite with Dad, or jump all over him like a jungle gym, or have dad spin him or toss him, throw a ball with him.....Kids know the difference, you know, when a parent is focused and fully engaged with them. You can't fool them.
And I don't fully believe he built a full golf course on his property to practice and be with his kids. More like, so he can practice in private. That sounds about right.
Am I missing something here...we are discussing Tiger and the limited time he has to spend with his kids. What you did was analogize him to you, who does find watching your kids chase grandpa on the green quality time. Fine, however this isn't about your world, because Tiger cannot afford that kind of luxury if he is to either maintain being the best, or retake his crown of being the best.
Despite all the credit you give yourself as an amateur golfer and who has had people tell you you could play pro, the fact remains, you are not pro and you do not live the demands day in and day out of what the TOP player in Golf does.
Using Jack as an example doesn't apply because he's been married 50 years and was never compelled to split-time with his young child. Furthermore, you gave no indication how long this child was on the green with him, so either he spent all his time with his kid on the green or very little and they removed his child at some point from the practice.
My point was, if you have your kids for a limited time as part of the custodial agreement, building a golf course to practice as a means to spend time with your kids, sorry, that's not quality to me. I'm pretty confident that when the kids are dropped off and they see and run to dad, the last thing they want is to have dad grab a putting iron to combine 'playtime" with them.
