    The lady friend with him said that when they were drifting apart he was making sure she just relaxed and didnt fight the current. She says he was the reason she is still alive. On the news they had Jarvis Green, Randall Gay, and Clayton give some words about the loss of a great friend and Tiger. Clayton mentioned he had a new born.:nope:
