SACKED caddie Steve Williams has slammed former boss Tiger Woods, saying he has lost respect for golf’s fallen idol.
Though their parting after 12 hugely successful years was not made public until this week, Williams revealed that the news was broken to him by Tiger on Sunday at the AT&T Championship earlier this month.
“I met with Tiger after the completion of the final round,” explained the New Zealander, who caddied for Aussie Adam Scott at that tournament and in the US and British Opens as Woods was laid up by knee and Achilles tendon injuries.
“I’d say I was very disappointed,” he said.
