Are you ready for this week’s Social Eyes? There’s only one place to start, and that’s with Tiger.
There’s been so much talk about him this week and, just two days after reports surfaced that his condition had worsened – before they were quickly refuted by his agent – he was at a dinner for Nike players at his restaurant, leaving two in particular suitably impressed.

Being at that Nike dinner last night, Tiger didn’t join his Ryder Cup captain Davis Love III, who himself was enjoying a meal with past US Ryder Cup caddies, as preparation for the match at Hazeltine continues.

And finally…
How about a tweet from 18-time major winner Jack Nicklaus? That’s what happened to Scotland’s own Catriona Matthew after tying for the lead after the second round of the ISPS Handa Women’s Australian Open.
