Tiger Woods’ sacked caddie admits ‘over the top reaction’ over first win with Scott

August 9, 2011 | Sports | Written by

Atlanta, Aug 9(ANI): Tiger Woods’ former caddie Steve Williams has acknowledged that his reaction to Australian golfer Adam Scott’s four-stroke win in the World Golf Championships was “a bit over the top”.

Williams was deeply hurt by his sacking last month by Woods, and had taken a dig at the American golfer by describing Scott’s weekend victory as “the best week in my life”.

“Looking back on it, I was a bit over the top,” the Telegraph quoted Williams, as saying.

“I had a lot of anger in me about what happened [with Woods] and it all came out,” he added.

Williams is currently in Atlanta, where he and Scott are preparing for this week’s PGA Championship.

Williams had been working with Woods since March 1999, and is believed to have earned over three million pounds through his estimated five percent share of Woods’ earnings on the course. (ANI)
