The correct answer was ``well it's a trend for the lapel gorge to be high these days, even if that particular suit is a case of somebody taking the concept to a ridiculous extreme.''
For the record I am not a particularly well-dressed person on a daily basis, but as mentioned I have found myself in places where it's cost-effective to have a suit tailored, and that really is a nice thing. More comfortable in addition to a better fit. The tailor asks questions about how you want these little details to be handled on your suit, which is the only reason I've ever thought about them.
I watched live the first round of the British Open yesterday, and starts again at 4:AM this morning. Tiger Woods played well and showed he still is a tool - On a live mic he yelled right at some fans Jesus Christ! - I guess they had cameras , that may be a no no, but damn what an idiot Woods is.

Well, as hard as it is, you're not even supposed to have cameras in there. I've been to many majors and it's nearly impossible to keep them all out. I understand Tiger's frustration. Whatever.
No sympathy whatsoever. Golf is like baseball, a game of hand-eye coordination. A batter has to hit a ball being delivered at 90+ mph in less than a second with 40,000 fans screaming at the top of their lungs, clapping and jumping up and down. Poor ol' Tiger has to hit a stationary ball, taking as much time as he wants, in absolute silence. You're supposed to be a pro - deal with the reality of fans with cameras. The universe does NOT revolve around you, despite what your handlers may say.

"I think golf would be much more interesting if fans could scream, yell, and wave objects in front of golfers as they shot-much like field goal attempts and free throws"

There not even remotely close. Just because you hit a round ball doesn't make them the same. It's okay that you don't like Tiger though.
He's a hot headed jackass on the golf course. Like Jon said...

That's word, and by the why anyone notice that Woods looks terrible - like hes aged 20 years since Elin belted him with a golf club 4 1/2 years ago.
I don't dislike Tiger - I've never met him nor has he given me a personal reason to dislike him. I just have little sympathy for stunningly wealthy self centered, pompous asses. He's a Donald Trump of professional golf. He could vanish from the scene and the sport would be no worse for wear.

I think it's what you get used to. If golfers had come up in an environment where people make noise, they'd adjust. Just like anyone who grew up on a quiet farm could eventually adjust to living and sleeping in a city. It just takes time.
