Tiger Woods Ex-caddie's Gloating Angers PGA Golfers

Roz Zurko

Tiger Woods ex-caddie basked in the glory of the win along side Adam Scott, but when Steve Williams gloating went overboard, some of the PGA golfers took notice.

While you would have thought it was Williams swinging of the clubs that won the WGC-Bridgestone with all the media attention he got, but his gloating soon became unbearable for others.

After hearing "this was the best week of my life" from Williams, along with "this is the most satisfying win I've ever had," from Woods' ex-caddie, Paul Azinger couldn't hold back.

"Wow! Really? In yo face TW?" said Azinger. He also told the media that Williams broke the unwritten rule of the caddies and that was talking to the media, according to Fox News.

Chris Wood and Oliver Wilson, two of the English golfers to play this week spoke up and said they felt that Williams gloating basically undermined Adam Scott's win.

Even the tennis star Andy Roddick tweeted that he thought he was missing something after hearing Williams interview. He asked sarcastically it was Williams himself that was actually playing.

Williams, who was obviously hurt by Woods decision to dump him, saw this as an opportunity to get back at Woods and he seemed to use every minute he had in front of the media to do this.

Woods and Williams were not just golfer and caddie, they had a close friendship that ended when Woods fired his bag-man. Williams stood by Woods through his long and drawn out sex scandal and through the after-math. Now that Woods sees his way clear, Williams's is disposable? Ouch! You can feel his pain!

The champion, Scott, did not seem to mind at all that his caddie was a popular guy and seemed very willing to share his limelight with Williams.

    Honestly, I couldn't care less about Tiger Woods right now. So the ex-caddie showed off a bit and was rude and obnoxious--he's a superstar now 'cause everyone reported on it. Otherwise, no one would take notice.
