I know that some on here don't like Tiger (I personally do), and below is certainly one redeeming quality, LOL, something I'm sure most of us have said multiple times. This one is told by DiMarco before they teed off in the final round in 2005, where the ultimately had the playoff won by Tiger.

The gamesmanship between these familiar foes and Ryder Cup and Presidents Cup teammates began before they even teed off. As DiMarco tells Collins, the proud University of Florida alum wrote "Go Gators" on a golf ball and chipped it into Tiger's pile of balls, coyly pretending he had nothing to do with it.

"And I turned around and I see him pull a sharpie out of his back pocket and he hits it back to me," DiMarco recalls. "And instead of saying 'Go Gators,' it said "F--- the Gators." I actually kept that ball. I have it somewhere."
