"Tiger's Tournament" Has Been Around A Long Time (Both Of Them)

Hello. On The Golf Channel's Grey Goose 19th Hole, a question was asked if Tiger Woods was too young to have his own tournament. The inference was that Tiger having his own tournament was a new phenomenon. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Tiger has at least two other tournaments he is the major host of. The first one is obviously the Target World Challenge played in mid-December. Tiger and 15 of his peers play in California for bragging rights. If Tiger wasn't involved in this tourney, it wouldn't exist. No small coincidence the Tiger Woods Foundation is the main beneficiary.
The other is the Deutsche Bank Championship held on Labour Day weekend. Again, the Tiger Woods Foundation is the main beneficiary, and Tiger is a guaranteed entrant. Thsi tournament was created because Tiger didn't like flying over to Germany in mid-season to compete in it, even though he had appearance money thrown at him.
To think the AT&T National starting today is Tiger's first tournament, and that it will be his last, is to be misguided. In fact, it's in a tournament's best interest to make Woods part of the operation. If they don't, they'll fall by the wayside, a la the Canadian Open.
