Even though the Super Bowl is but a dim memory now, the sports world is abuzz with plenty of excitement, especially with the Winter Olympics in full swing and Tiger Woods about to issue an apology for what he described as an “infidelity.” Tiger Woods has scheduled an announcement for 11 a.m. on Friday, Feb. 19, 2010, in Ponte Vedra, Fla., in what is billed as his apology to the sports world. Although both live television and perhaps radio will be in attendance, only a select few journalists will be on hand and the world’s best golfer will not answer any questions. Advance polls are showing that the public won’t be swayed by any kind of apology from Tiger Woods, but that remains to be seen. Once Tiger Woods gets back on the golf course and starts winning tournaments, his fans will return in full force, that’s for sure. Now on to the Olympics. For all of those who wonder why certain athletes seem to stand out from others in popularity, the events on Wednesday, Feb., 17, at the Winter Olympics should answer those questions. The bottom line – talent rules, especially if you have a little charisma to go along with it. Take Shaun White, Apolo Ohno and Lindsay Vonn for example. All three are supreme in their chosen sports and all three came through in dramatic fashion at the Winter Olympics. White soared over all the other snowboarders in the half-pipe event; Ohno qualified for the finals in speed skating and Vonn dominated the course in the women’s downhill event in claiming the gold. Rock on, USA!
