There is a popular sports website that keeps sending notifications to my phone about Tiger Woods. Tiger Woods enters tournament. Tiger Woods withdraws from tournament. Tiger Woods weighs in on LIV Golf. Tiger Woods goes to the supermarket. Tiger Woods should really be getting on with his Christmas shopping.

The same website never sends urgent messages to my phone about Scottie Scheffler. There are no emergency updates about Will Zalatoris. Not a dickie bird about Billy Horschel. But Tiger? The latest news about the world’s number 1277 ranked player dominates my Samsung Galaxy.
