White demanded the critics to leave him alone while stating that Woods made a mistake. He also went to great lengths to defend him asserting that everything that he does in his personal life is solely his business.

He said, “You know I am not into golfing at all man, but you know I am a tiger fan, I like his passion, I like how hard he plays the game. He has won so many but still has the passion for it. And you know, it is just one of these things, where you love to build people up and then tear them down. Guy made a mistake, leave tiger alone man, leave him alone, let him, what he is doing at home and elsewhere is nobody’s business. You wanna talk about when he is playing golf next, what kind of training regiment he is following, this is and that. That’s all the stuff you wanna talk about, the stuff is going on with him is bulls**t”
