To some extent, Tiger Woods has endured the worst part of his scandal. Most of the facts are out and it really can’t get any worse. But now, even more dirty details are trickling out.

Even though he’s the governor of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger isn’t always politically correct. He was in hot water in 2006 for saying Latinos had “hot blood.” More recently, he made a hilarious yet potentially offensive joke while playing in a pro-am tournament:
Tags: arnold schwarzenegger, blow jobs, golf, jokeMy friend played in a Pro-Am with California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger. They introduce themselves and walk up to the first tee. Arnold has this huge cigar in his mouth as he puts the tee in the ground and asks my friend, “When was your last blow job?”
My friend chuckles a little bit and says, “A couple nights ago, I guess.” Arnold doesn’t say anything, pulls back the club and mid backswing (in his “Terminator” voice) asks, “How did it taste?” and swings through and shanks the ball 50 yards dead right out of bounds.
Talk about your all-time backfires. A Colorado man who attempted a “pop art” project on Gatorade bottles could be in hot water. Jason Kay was arrested on Wednesday for violating three federal codes that prohibit product tampering.
Kay’s project involved replacing Gatorade labels with the image of Tiger Woods and his wife. The “GATORADE” logo was replaced with “UNFAITHFUL” on the other side. Bottles with the replaced logos were found in Denver, Erie, Boulder, Broomfield, and Longmont.
The unemployed man had originally emailed PepsiCo, who makes Gatorade, and offered to execute the stunt. Kay apparently thought that it would be good advertising. I wonder if he can collect unemployment from jail.

Rachel Uchitel AKA Tiger’s #1 Mistress has been all over the news lately. First, it broke that she was “seeing” Tiger Woods and had been in Australia at the same time. Then, she went on a campaign to clear her name claiming she’d never hooked up with the world’s best golfer.
Fast forward a week and now she’s eating up the exposure. You may have seen her exclusive interview with the New York Post where she said the woman who sold the story to the Enquirer was a prostitute. Classy. Now, she even has paparazzi tailing her in New York City.
Looking at the pictures, I almost assume that there’s just one photographer and he probably arranges meetings to take these photos. Hell, Uchitel might even be getting a piece of that action. Because if you haven’t noticed, she’s always in tights and done up for the camera. I also like the picture where she’s jogging with a paper in her hand. Chance of being staged: 90%.

Doug Barron earned a dubious distinction today. The man with no Wikipedia page became the first golfer to be suspended for violating the PGA Tour’s anti-doping policy.
Barron is suspended for one year from the date which he failed the test. It’s unclear when the failed the test or what substance triggered the failed test. The PGA Tour said they will not comment further on the situation. Here’s what Barron had to say:
“I would like to apologize for any negative perception of the tour or its players resulting from my suspension. I want my fellow tour members and the fans to know that I did not intend to gain an unfair competitive advantage or enhance my performance while on tour.”
Mr. Barron is 40 years old and isn’t really a factor on the PGA Tour. He missed the cut at the St. Jude Classic in June and that was his only start of the season.

Robert Allenby is mad. He’s mad because Anthony Kim beat him. He’s also mad because Kim was apparently only a few hours removed from an all night booze session when the two faced off.
Anthony Kim notched a victory for USA in the President’s Cup when he beat Allenby 5 and 3. Allenby alleges that the American was out until 4AM the previous morning. Here’s what Mr. Alleby had to say:
“Maybe we should all take the theory of Anthony Kim,” Allenby said. “Get home at 4 o’clock (in the morning) and then go shoot 6 under.”
Asked if his comments were on the record, Allenby said, “I don’t care. Ask his playing partners. Ask his team. He is the loosest cannon in that team.”
Allenby went on to call the 24-year-old Kim golf’s “current John Daly.”
Sour grapes, anybody? Is Allenby mad that he didn’t lose by more? Isn’t it more embarrassing to lose to somebody who’s playing half-drunk? In any case, Kim denied the allegations. But they’re probably true since Kim had previously described his first year on the our as a “vodka-fueled rookie season.”

In only 13 years, Tiger Woods has amassed a billion dollars from endorsements and winnings. He didn’t even have to whore himself out to every single company in the world like Michael Jordan. Forbes reports that his $10 million bonus for winning the FedEx Cup put him over the $100 million mark for the year and the billion mark for his career. So the best golfer in the world has earned over $1,000,000,000 and he’s only 33. I wonder if Elin Nordegren gets half if they split.

Recently, she was in Celadna, Czech Republic for the Moravia Silesia Open. Nemcova was on hand to show off the “world’s most expensive golf ball” created by ALO Diamonds.
Via PGA Tour:
Tags: diamonds, european tour, golf, golf ball, petra nemcova, pgaThe European Tour has a sparkling new destination this week. After a 12-year break, the Tour’s holding an event in the Czech Republic, and it’s hoped the event will prosper in a new setting. Fittingly, the venue is the Prosper Golf Resort in Celadna, a town between the country’s second and third largest cities: Brno and Ostrava.
It’s taken some planning for players to get there, though. They’ve taken flights into the capital Prague followed by a further internal flight or a long drive. The television crew has journeyed via Poland. But the course surrounded by picturesque mountains seems worth the effort.The Moravia Silesia Open is so named, because the region is committed to growing its tourist industry and in particular its reputation as a destination for golf.
And “sparkling” is fitting, because the event’s presented by ALO Diamonds. You don’t have to trawl the net far to find dazzling images of the Czech supermodel Petra Nemcova bedecked in their finest jewels.How does a diamond company mark its sponsorship of a golf event? By displaying the world’s most expensive golf ball, made from white gold and studded with thousands of their stones. A hole in one prize is also a diamond.
