On the eve of the British Open, the NYT Magazine has run an informative "backgrounder" on essential Tiger info: family tidbits, his size (6/2 180 and a 28" waist - hmmmm) his shots and yes, even some pronouncements from the dowager emperor, Earl

NYT Magazine Article \"THE TIGER FILES\" (reg. req. etc)

Tidbit: Noting that Tiger's current GF used to be au-pair nanny for the Jesper Parnivak family: I remember being on a flight from Newark to Fort Lauderdale where Mrs P, the nanny and three kids, one looking not more than two months old, were on the flight. Mrs. P was apparently trying to clear an upgrade for herself into F, which did not come through. So she sat in cattle class, but didn't lift a finger to help the nanny with the two older kids (the baby slept, thankfully). I knew who it was because one of the FA's told my seatmates and me. I don't remember if it is Woods' current GF, I just remember how harried she was.
