Author says Tiger indulged as a child

The author of a new book on Tiger Woods says a sense of entitlement may be behind the golfer's extra-marital affairs.

Author Robert Lusetich, the author of Unplayable says Tiger Woods feels superior because his parents told him he was the chosen one.

"He is quite indulged and I was shocked but as I processed (information) more I was thinking, he does feel like he can do whatever he wants."

Mr Lusetich says Woods likes New Zealanders and Australians because they are not so reverential towards him.
