[The Golf Blog] The questions the golf press should have asked Tiger Woods after ...: However you want to spin it, the gist of Tiger's comment was that Tiger believed he did more work rehabbing the knee than Ernie Els and that Ernie "could have worked a little bit harder." It's hard to imagine any scenario in which such a comment by one world famous athlete about another athlete's work ethic in rehabbing after an injury doesn't deserve a follow up question, at least for clarification purposes.
