Tiger Woods’ fart on live television overshadows championship win

I had to watch this damn video three times before I realized the small squeaking sound -that no one comments on in real time – was (GASP) a Tiger Fart. That’s right, ladies and gentlemen, Tiger Woods farts! And it’s a pretty cute sound. It’s not like he’s some gassy fart-ripping mofo who ate too much Chinese food (cough cough me cough). The Tiger Fart was subdued, almost classy. And it’s also huge news in the sporting world. Let me say it this way – if you spent your days covering every aspect of golf, for the love of God, wouldn’t a Tiger fart be, like, one the juiciest stories ever?

A Tiger Woods fart is pretty much the only thing Tiger Woods hasn’t done on camera. But the Tiger Woods fart at the end of the Buick Open changed all that. TV cameras follow Tiger Woods endlessly, but they never caught a Tiger Woods fart before. Yet they did that on the 18th hole of the Buick Open, as Tiger Woods was wrapping up an easy victory. However, it was the Tiger Woods fart that took up much of the attention afterward, since people have seen Tiger win countless times before – but had never heard this from him before.

Tiger Woods’ fart came during the 18’th hole, as Woods was in the fairway getting set to wrap up the Buick Open. Woods would win by three shots, and was coasting fairly easily. As such, the most noteworthy thing he did during the final round itself was fart, and get caught doing it by a nearby microphone.

The Tiger Woods fart was heard pretty well on television, though the commentators didn’t have any comment for it – perhaps the first time they had no words or hyperbole for something Tiger Woods did. Woods heard it immediately and laughingly asked “Are you serious?” as he and caddy Steve Williams giggled, as is customary after a fart.

At the very least, the Tiger Woods fart was something that he could afford to laugh at, since he was winning easily. In fact, this whole weekend was a relief for Woods, having rebounded from a terrible missed cut at the British Open.

Tiger Woods can laugh off a fart while he’s winning, but not winning any majors at all in one year would be a different matter.

“Woods heard it immediately and laughingly asked “Are you serious?” as he and caddy Steve Williams giggled, as is customary after a fart.” Oh. My. God. Do these golf people really need to have it explained that’s it’s customary to laugh after someone farts? In some of the videos, you can even see Tiger laughing post-fart, and it actually made me like him more. Ridiculous.

Update by Celebitchy: CBS is denying that Tiger lit one, while refusing to identify the culprit. As James points out below, Tiger lifted his leg while it happened. Of course that may have been just a coincidence.

    I am so exhausted and out of it today that I actually read the Associated Content’s article as meaning that it was customary SPECIFICALLY IN GOLF to laugh after a fart. Like it was golf etiquette.

  2. ccoop says:

    If anyone could fart with grace, it would definitely be Tiger Woods. Kudos for his win, and for laughing off the squeaker.

  3. Cinderella says:

    His caddy deserves an extra bonus for not moving from that noxious spot.

    Ew, let’s not mention “fart” and “juiciest” together…LOL ;P

    Farts will always be funny. Not constant farting every chance you get like my ex *barf* but random farts, ALWAYS funny. I should have prefaced this by saying I have the maturity level of a 12 year old boy, but there you are. LOL 🙂

  13. Kolby says:

    It obviously wasn’t him – it must have been the sound guy or camera guy. Someone close to the microphone. Good lord.

  14. icky says:

    Hey everybody! Tiger Woods Farted today! That is sooo news worthy

  15. mel says:

    Obviously he had some serious gas issues…LOL

  16. wow says:

    Whoever “smelt” it, “dealt” it. 😛

    Now CBS is saying it wasn’t Tiger after all.

    And I can’t believe we are discussing this. Lol

  17. Trey says:

    I like men who can fart in public and get away with it. Not in a fratboy sort of way, but people who can play it off without being douchetastic about it. Takes some social skillz.

  18. MSat says:

    Whoever it was, I hope he/she said excuse me. 😀

  19. Orangejulius says:

    Very embarrassing when it happens in a pilates class too…

  20. tk says:

    he is human, all this time i thougt he was from another planet, great job tiger!

  21. Cheyenne says:

    “Small squeak”? That was two stops short of a sonic boom.

    Never mind. Tiger’s so cute, he farts cute farts.

  22. aury says:

    heh.

  23. James says:

  24. Kevin says:

    I wonder if he let a test bubble go first to make sure that it was a fart.

  25. Tino says:

    If he’s wearing white panties, probably left a skidmark or at least a brown stain…

  26. sam says:

  27. rgt says:

  28. Marina says:
