Endorsements made him a global brand and the world's richest athlete. The child of a multiracial marriage, Woods and his blond, blue-eyed wife, Elin Nordegren, seemed to represent a new post-racial America. Then, in late 2009, Woods became embroiled in a sex scandal that made headlines worldwide. In this concise yet far-reaching analysis, Orin Starn brings an anthropologist's perspective to bear on Tigergate. He explores our modern media obsession with celebrity scandals and their tawdry ritualized drama, yet he offers much more than the usual banal moralizing about the rich and famous. Starn explains how Tiger's travails and the culture of golf reflect broader American anxieties - about race and sex, scapegoating and betrayal, and the role of the sports hero. The Passion of Tiger Woods is required reading for all those interested in the high-stakes world of professional golf, the politics of sports and celebrity, and the myths and realities surrounding the flawed yet riveting figure who remains among the most famous athletes of our time. 000434884 60010 $$aWoods, Tiger. 000434884 650_0 $$aGolfers$$zUnited States$$vBiography. 000434884 650_0 $$aSex scandals$$zUnited States. 000434884 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aStarn, Orin$$tPassion of Tiger Woods.$$dDurham, N.C. : Duke University Press, 2011$$z9780822351993$$z0822351994$$z9780822352105$$z0822352109$$w(DLC) 2011027557$$w(OCoLC)741355029 000434884 8520_ $$bacq 000434884 85280 $$bebk$$hProquest Ebook Central 000434884 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=1173304$$zOnline Access 000434884 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:434884$$pGLOBAL_SET 000434884 980__ $$aEBOOK 000434884 980__ $$aBIB 000434884 982__ $$aEbook 000434884 983__ $$aOnline
