Robert talks to Kai Strom, the First Assistant Golf Professional at the Springfield Country Club in Springfield, Virginia, about the golf balls that are specially manufactured for Tiger Woods. A consumer group filed suit against Nike last week for an advertising campaign in which Woods endorses a Nike golf ball that he doesn't really use. The company says it will soon be selling the exact type of ball that Woods uses. Strom tells Robert that using the same ball Woods uses is unlikely to make another golfer play like Woods.
