Kelly Tilghman’s ‘Lynch’ Remarks Create Firestorm
Kelly Tilghman is in an Olympic size pool of hot water after her comments about young golfers needing to lynch Tiger Woods. Kelly is the anchor for the Golf Channel. She has apologized for the comments and to Wood’s rep.
Golf Channel anchor Kelly Tilghman has made a round of apologies after saying that young golf players should “lynch Tiger Woods in a back alley” as a way to compete with the most dominant player in the sport’s history, ESPN reported Tuesday.
Tilghman made the remarks during Friday’s telecast of the PGA Tour’s opening event at the Mercedes-Benz Championship.
Tilghman does play-by-play for the PGA Tour on the Golf Channel. She is the first woman to do so. She played golf for Duke in college.
Even with the apology, I think it will be hard for Kelly to keep her job.

Sometimes I think, what is really on a persons mind when they make comments like this ? She should fired for that comment.
they shouldn’t have suspended Kelly. If she said that about a white golfer would they suspend her. Nope. Blacks have faught to be treated equal yet the white people kiss their butt for every little thing
Joseph, you are an idiot. There is a big difference between lynching a white man and lynching a black man. Unless you’ve never gone to college and read the history books, blacks have been oppress by white men and have used lynching to instill fear in those that might disobey their master. I’m sure with a history like that, such words have meaning to certain groups of people. Try traveling to another ruling country and see how people treat you then. It’s not a pleasant feeling when others makes you feel inferior to them.
