NYT Article wonders why women like Suzy Favor Hamilton don't get comebacks like Tiger Woods did (except for Serena)

SFH scandal was mega-clicks for brojos farm. Basically a once-in-decadal event.

If she wins Olympic gold, the sponsors will come back

-Golf is difficult but it isn't a real sport

-I'm tired of hearing about Tiger Woods

Nancy Lopez can still make a comeback!

The comparison that Crouse makes between Woods and Favor Hamilton is a faulty one. Favor Hamilton was long retired from word class racing when reports of her escort work surfaced in 2012 (and long past the age where a comeback would have even been physically possible), whereas Woods was still competing and winning in 2009 when Elin called Rachel.

Yes, but you're not supposed to notice the obvious.

Gee maybe because Tiger won the Masters while Suzy is still *****ing it up on Instagram

Yep, Tiger hasn't retired yet. Then he'll get the mental illness a year after, and it will be downhill from there out.

And here I was wondering why transgender persons like Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner don't get comebacks.

There you go again, thinking that someone has to "earn" an comeback, as if it were an object of merit.

Thankfully, we as a society are more and more coming to the inevitable realization that there is an inherent right to comebacks, and so we must provide so that all can experience them.

Hamilton versus Woods: Men who sleep with multiple cocktail waitresses and multiple female servers at breakfast diners tend to be on a loftier social level than prostitutes.

Women aren’t interesting. Look at Desi

Au contraire the whole Caitlin thing was for sure a "comeback" in his/her mind.

"Oooohh! I'm back in the limelight for a minute!!"

I thought this article was such a stretch.

She still had a relationship with Nike when reports of her escort work prompted the company to drop her.

Why exactly does Crouse opt for the word "relationship"?

First, it's sooooo rare for a woman to get caught up in something like this that there is no standard-bearer. It's too uncommon so when a woman does get caught up in it, she feels the bulk of the criticism and pressure from society as a whole.

I think society is just more accepting that men will be "dogs" because that's kinda hardwired into us. And again, it happens so frequently with men that the media is like meh, what's next?

Also, it comes down to the individual's own personality. I think women are just more likely to feel ashamed and as a result, are less likely to try and stage a comeback....

I can't think of any woman ni sports outside of Suzy Favor who was caught up in something like this.
