"The crowd isn't the problem. It's the media that tries to get out on the golf course"

0218golfcov-autosized258.jpgAn unbylined Tucson Citizen story reports that Tiger Woods played a practice round Monday and noted this about his security.

According to one of those assigned to keep the peace during the tournament this week, Tiger has extra security.

"Some you can see, some you can't," said escort Russ Perlich.

Tournament organizers assigned extra escorts, too, but the crowds usually maintain their distance, Perlich said.

"The crowd isn't the problem. It's the media that tries to get out on the golf course," he said.
Since when has there ever been a problem with too much media on a golf course? Particularly one that no one likes to walk, much less visit.
