Vijay isn't BLACK, he's only dark skinned.
but there was a black player about 20 years ago, i can't remember his name but i remember he wore a hat all the time.

Again Lord Jezo demonstrates why most consider him the epitome of a fscktard!
Tiger Woods became famous as a young Prodigy and those who follow golf held a keen interest in his progress, not because he was part Asian (or Blacck) but because he was so good at such a young age. When he went to Stanford the interest in him nationally peaked and when he went pro he was as good as Players who had been on the Pro Circuit for years and who had won. Since then he has surpassed all other Players in Skill Level during most of his career. Right now it seems he is slumping (so is the nature and the hardest sport to master in the world)
His popularity with the mainstream came about due to his age, his skill, his physical appearance (the guy can press over 300 LBS) and the most of by the Ad Campaign by Nike. I can assure you that if a white golfer as young and as attractive as him who was as talented as he is would hit the scene he too would become as poular as Tiger is.
