By all accounts, Earl was a great "athlete dad" and let Tiger choose his own course. He never saw his son as a meal ticket like Marinovich's old man did. He let Tiger grow up to be Tiger and concentrated on teaching him right from wrong and how to be a man. He let the golf take care of itself.
Sadly, in the long run, this will finally let Tiger be Tiger again. The distraction of his dad's health has hampered his game dramatically for a while now.
Tiger will likely take a month off from the tour and spend it with his family. As he should.
RIP Earl Woods. You were a good man,
