Hollywood superstar shares his thoughts on Tiger Woods

Mark Wahlberg has had an astounding career in Hollywood, having given exceptional performances like in The Perfect Storm, The Planet of the Apes, The Departed, and many more. And apart from acting, one activity that Wahlberg truly enjoys is golf.

Few days back golf fanatics Jakob and Kyle posted a photo of Mark Wahlberg with Tiger Woods to their official Instagram account, with Wahlberg’s quote regarding Woods: “Tiger Woods is the only sports star who’s worth every penny he makes.” And the post was captioned with: “Do you agree with @markwahlberg ? Comment below 🔥⛳️”

Wahlberg has previously shown his admiration for Woods in an open manner. He played the Genesis Open Pro-Am with the GOAT. “Playing with Tiger, and the greatest golfer who ever played the game and a guy who inspired me to play, and he was in great spirits, and was just great and good to talk to him,” Wahlberg stated. But he spent a lot of time in the news for his use of headphones the entire time he played the game. And a fervent follower of Woods perceived this as a gesture of disrespect.

Fans react to Wahlberg’s statement on Woods

In the world of golf, every thing Tiger Woods is  newsworthy. Fans responded to Wahlberg’s remarks on Tiger Woods this time as well. His argument that Tiger Woods is the best, was supported by many fans. Others vehemently disagreed with the assertion. Let’s look at those comments:

“God damn right. No one has meant more to their individual sport than Tiger to golf…. Or given back more to the community than Tiger. Dude Is Golf.”

“Absolutety!”

“He is the only GOAT. The only.”

“I know what Mark is trying to say, but I have to disagree. Tiger has done more for the game of golf than anyone and deserves whatever he makes. That said, there are pro athletes that are wildly underpaid, so by definition, they are worth every penny they make as well, plus a lot more.”

“Can’t argue he is worth every penny, but there are many others earning every penny that slay it!”

“Yes. I watched him play at TPC Boston. My son said “hey Tiger”, and my he turned and smiled and tipped his hat. And for a moment my son felt like a million dollars and from that moment on I don’t care what he does off the course I will root for that man until the day I die.”

“Totally agree 🔥👍!!”

“Legend for sure 🏌️ 🔥”

“Nope. They’re all worth penny, and likely more. Every sports franchise owner is making even more profit, or they’d not pay their athletes these salaries”

“Tiger is the legend for sure! 🔥 🔥”
