Could Steve Williams be up for the sack?

Question

With Williams talking to the media about his "anger" with Woods infidelities, could the New Zealand caddy be a candidate for the sack?

Answer 1

Assuming we're in full possession of the facts, it's possible. The criticism of Woods might have come about as a defensive manoeuvre, so Williams can emphasise how he wasn't a part of the star's secret double-life. But it's worth bearing in mind that Woods doesn't have a great track record in retaining staff who get too chummy with the media - it's thought he sacked his previous caddy, Mike "Fluff" Cowan, because he spoke too freely to the press.
But before we get too carried away, it might be tough for Woods to let a new man into his life, as it were, especially at this difficult stage - he might prefer to stick with tried and tested staff at this point. For all we know, Woods could have told Williams to speak to the media and pretend not to be aware of his master's indiscretions, in a bid to keep the caddy's reputation clean! We're through the looking glass here people...
