An interesting article concerning Big Spenders of sport, in the Sunday Times (UK).....
"The golfer who earns enough money to clear the debt of some third world countries has reportedly gambled $50,000,000. Pete Sampras plays blackjack at 80p a hand. Go back and check the noughts. Woods, who often flies to Las Vegas tables between tournaments, bets up to $200,000 on one hand of blackjack. Each time he loses, the crowd smiles a little inside. Its not malice. For a fleeting moment, Woods looks horribly human."
I guess the lad has gotta have a hobby. If its all true of course.
