The organizers of the race, however, said otherwise. They stated that no such incident was mentioned to them, and they had met the requests made by Tiger Woods – extra security and a snowmobile for his exit.
Secretary General Nicola Colli told The Associated Press, “I was among those who escorted him from the tent to the snowmobile and there was no such incident…When he arrived he asked for more security and we rounded up police to look after both him and Lindsey.”

“Would you mind giving me some breathing space, please?” The golfer sincerely asked him. But it didn’t make much of a difference to the situation.
