Tiger Woods

Tiger Woods
rarely hits a ball
into the woods

as he continues to
break down racist stereotypes in Japan,
the Augusta Masters
and everywhere else he goes.

Now, Tiger, please stand
up for the right of women golfers
to play everywhere.
*********

(The Augusta Masters did not
invite black players til 1975,
nor allow blacks into the country club
til 1990. The Masters still
does not allow women to play.)
