Tiger is worth what? Over 200 million? Has he EVER donated anything to any black cause or charity?
Seriously, even a cursory web search would show that Tiger does A LOT for minority charities and charities in general..
A lot of Black and Minority students benefit from his scholarship programs..

Before founding his multiple learning centers Tiger would do many clinics to raise money for charities, always with multiple outreaches to Black and minority organizations. Tiger certainly has his flaws, we all do to some degree, but trying to "hide" who he is is not one of them. Further proof, one of the first things he said after winning the '97 Masters.. "I wasn't the pioneer, Charlie Sifford, Lee Elder, Ted Rhodes, those are the guys who paved the way. All night I was thinking about them, what they've done for me and the game of golf. Coming up 18, I said a little of prayer of thanks to those guys. Those guys are the ones who did it.''
Go to 7:55, clearly embracing, not hiding.
