Tiger Woods should be thankful that Kim Jong Il, the reclusive North Korean dictator, is too busy running his country to take part in international golf tournaments. According to official media reports, the "Dear Leader", as he is referred to in North Korea, got five holes-in-one and finished 38 under par on his first ever game of golf this last fall.
Kim, a keen golfer these days, reportedly hits three or four holes- in-one each time he plays. With that sort of golfing ability, perhaps Kim Jong Il would be better off leaving the running of the country to others. Playing in international golf tournaments in order to earn some hard currency to help the ailing North Korean economy would make him a dearer leader.
Lee Myong-bak, the president elect of South Korea is looking forward to playing a round with the dear leader. It may not last 18 holes though. I understand Lee likes to use a baseball bat.
