Should Tiger do more for Orlando?

06:26 AM ET 03.21 | Add the City of Orlando to the list of people, individuals and ideas who have been wronged by Tiger Woods. By choosing to return at the Masters instead of Arnold Palmer's tournament at Bay Hill, Tiger has chosen to deprive Orlando of the economic benefit of his appearance in what could be described as his hometown tournament. His absence at Bay Hill this year appears to resonate all the more in Orlando where locals are perturbed that Tiger does not give as much back to the community as they think he should. After all, Tiger hosts his golf tournament in Washington D.C. (actually Philadelphia this year) and his charity concert, TigerJam, in Las Vegas (I don't think that one will be coming back any time soon), but there is little Tiger has done publicly for the city of Orlando and the surrounding area.
