Kelly Tilghman

As most of those who follow the golf world or politics in general, you know that Kelly Tilghman stated, on the Golf Channel, jokingly that juniors should "lynch [Tiger] in a back alley."

I, personally,l believe that this is a non-issue. Tiger and Tilghman are supposedly good friends, and even his agent said it wasn't a big deal. I don't want to get into a huge discussion on the political correctness of our country, but people seriously need to lighten up. It was a joke, and her word choice was not purposeful. I realize that lynch has a negative connotation in America due to slavery, but I believe this is a mistake that can and should be forgiven and overlooked.
