You can have 20/15 vision without surgery. It's not that uncommon.

He makes a lot, but I'm pretty sure he's nowhere near $1B.

You raging moron. This has nothing to do with Tiger Wood apparels or accessories. Its the MONEY HE MADE FROM GAMES we are talking about.

He didn't make $1,000,000,000 from winning tournaments if that's what u mean. He makes most of his money from sponsors/endorsments.

I thought the purpose of Andro was to boost testosterone?

R u sure? I'm pretty sure he didn't make 1 billion dollars just from golf, I think this is merely on how much he has made as and athlete, sponsors, endorsements, winnings, contracts and everything combined. I didn't read the link but I read on the pervious forbes that he makes about 100million a year and that includes everything from endorsements to winnings.
Yes 100% sure.

fuckin amazing..
thats an odd comment.

If he deserves 1 billion for playing golf, shouldn't your doctor doctor get 100 billion? what about a teacher?

At least bill gates has donated a boat load of his money.
