If he just changed his fuc*ing personality and came across as someone who LOVED golf and couldn't get enough of it, maybe talked about how he loves to do things with kids charities and smiled more. and for Gods sake, show a little emotion on the course, the guy could be a full blown superstar.
Its just a shame when someone with this much talent comes along once every ten years or so and its just wasted because the rest of the package is so unbelievably awful.

Did you watch Thursday and Friday when Brooks and Tiger played in the same group? Between every hole walking by lines of fans, Tiger would keep his head down and not even make eye contact with fans. While Brooks walked with one hand or if possible both hands extended slapping the fans hands. You interpret body language in a whole new way.
I can't imagine the amount of pressure Brooks is playing under, it's not a team sport, it's only you. When the NY crowd began chanting for DJ while Brooks is trying make a putt to save par, the pressure of blowing a 7 shot lead, I think remaining cool, calm and collected has worked for Brooks so far, I like him just the way he is.
