Tiger Woods uses expletives on live television

WELLINGTON - Golfer Tiger Woods is once again making headlines for using expletives on live television during the British Open at St Andrews.

Woods has been working hard on improving his public image since news of his extra-marital affairs broke in November last year, but television microphones captured the world number one firing off a string of expletives, reports stuff.co.nz.

Woods could be heard delivering the curse-laden tantrum after missing a putt.

Woods had been using a new putter during the early rounds of the tournament in an effort to recapture the form that saw him win 14 majors.

Woods, however, switched back to the putter he has used for the past 11 years for the final round this morning.
