Tiger Woods’ fart on live television overshadows championship win
I had to watch this damn video three times before I realized the small squeaking sound -that no one comments on in real time – was (GASP) a Tiger Fart. That’s right, ladies and gentlemen, Tiger Woods farts! And it’s a pretty cute sound. It’s not like he’s some gassy fart-ripping mofo who ate too much Chinese food (cough cough me cough). The Tiger Fart was subdued, almost classy. And it’s also huge news in the sporting world. Let me say it this way – if you spent your days covering every aspect of golf, for the love of God, wouldn’t a Tiger fart be, like, one the juiciest stories ever?
A Tiger Woods fart is pretty much the only thing Tiger Woods hasn’t done on camera. But the Tiger Woods fart at the end of the Buick Open changed all that. TV cameras follow Tiger Woods endlessly, but they never caught a Tiger Woods fart before. Yet they did that on the 18th hole of the Buick Open, as Tiger Woods was wrapping up an easy victory. However, it was the Tiger Woods fart that took up much of the attention afterward, since people have seen Tiger win countless times before – but had never heard this from him before.
Tiger Woods’ fart came during the 18’th hole, as Woods was in the fairway getting set to wrap up the Buick Open. Woods would win by three shots, and was coasting fairly easily. As such, the most noteworthy thing he did during the final round itself was fart, and get caught doing it by a nearby microphone.
The Tiger Woods fart was heard pretty well on television, though the commentators didn’t have any comment for it – perhaps the first time they had no words or hyperbole for something Tiger Woods did. Woods heard it immediately and laughingly asked “Are you serious?” as he and caddy Steve Williams giggled, as is customary after a fart.
At the very least, the Tiger Woods fart was something that he could afford to laugh at, since he was winning easily. In fact, this whole weekend was a relief for Woods, having rebounded from a terrible missed cut at the British Open.
Tiger Woods can laugh off a fart while he’s winning, but not winning any majors at all in one year would be a different matter.

“Woods heard it immediately and laughingly asked “Are you serious?” as he and caddy Steve Williams giggled, as is customary after a fart.” Oh. My. God. Do these golf people really need to have it explained that’s it’s customary to laugh after someone farts? In some of the videos, you can even see Tiger laughing post-fart, and it actually made me like him more. Ridiculous.
Update by Celebitchy: CBS is denying that Tiger lit one, while refusing to identify the culprit. As James points out below, Tiger lifted his leg while it happened. Of course that may have been just a coincidence.
