He White!! i dont claim his a** at All!
January 27th, 2009
I would tend to say he was more asian or black rather than white.
April 27th, 2009
um…hes not white…he is a creole…wait that does mean mixed with a lot of things right? anywayzz he is sexy
August 1st, 2009
He has Chinese & Thai in him, so that means he has more Asian in him than White. Rumor is he used to put Asian as his race and he corrected people who called him African American..
August 1st, 2009
I think he prefers to be called Multiracial.

You don’t own him so you can’t claim him!

some of you sound ignorant lol!.. creole is black and french duh! it is neat to be mixed.. shoot we are human beings who cares about the other stuff!…………

His appearance seem to favor his african american ancestery rather than his cacausian/asian ancestery.

He definitely has the African hair. A lot of Thai people have dark skin so his complexion could also be from his Thai heritage.

It’d be really hard to guess Tiger’s ethnic background just by looking at him. What a diverse mix.
October 20th, 2009

Thanks for that Joel. Some people may say that you are a ‘Blasian’. I think thats the term half Black and Asian people like to use.

To the person who said “he white,” learn to speak like an intelligent adult some day, it might come in handy. At any rate, he’s 1/8th Dutch, that makes him only 1/8th white. great many black people are of mixed heritage…. maybe even YOU!
By the way… the word is spelled “just” not “jux”. Man, some of the people on here sound so stupid. No wonder the Chinese, Indians, Cubans and many other nations are kicking our butt in the literacy rate and supplying new scientists, engineers, doctors, etc…. our younger generations are just soooo stupid. We don’t even have enough special ed support to cover this disaster, and they really don’t care. They have no idea how messed up their life is going to be in just a few short years.

By the way, Puerto Rican people have black people’s hair because they are part black you idiots! They are part hispanic, black and a few other nationalities. Here’s the website, read and see if you can learn anything instead of flapping your mount about things you don’t know. Man… you sound soooo stupid.
November 30th, 2009
OK… more ignorance…. how could Tiger have dark skin and still only be 1/4 black? It’s called genetic dominance. Were sleeping or just stoned when your Bio class covered that. Darker skin is actually a dominant trait over light skin.

I don’t care what he calls himself … he’s just human.
December 10th, 2009
Wow is right- he white, he black, he dis, he dat… damn y’all need some edumacatshun
January 8th, 2010
how does a nigga measure all that’s supposed to be in him. i guess i should do some dna work. maybe white people would treat me better.
January 8th, 2010
It’s amusing to see how many people get worked up over race. =/
I could always see the Asian in him. His facial features look kind of Thai to me.
January 9th, 2010
Paul. he really looked Asian when he was younger.

Tiger Woods, is black and Asian. His father, Earl Woods, in discussing his own ethnicity (see below), claimed that he (Earl Woods) was 1/4 black (yeah, right). I think due to the racial discrimination he faced back in the day, he wanted to deny being just plain old black. And, he didn’t want his son to be perceived as black.

epyon#12 thanks for the comment and links. it sounds like the woods family lived in a predominantly white environment which would have been very difficult for a mixed family.

How could Tiger woods say he is 1/4 black when he is so dark. His dad looked like a full black man. He needs to shut up!!

I dnt care what he says he is. His father is an average African American with small amounts of admicture. Tiger is half black in my book. He wants 2 be white so bad
February 12th, 2010
I think to get a true breakdown of Tiger’s ethnicity wed have to take a DNA test.
February 13th, 2010
yea. I wish I could get one

Ok, to that comment that Tiger is so dark and his dad was full black.
Tiger Woods is not dark. He is caramel skinned and his father was, too. For anyone of African descent, caramel is not dark skinned! Dark brown and almost the color black is dark skinned. Caramel is admixture. And yes, there are dark skinned mixies because mixed people come in all looks. Pure blacks are dark brown to almost the color black. He is not dark skinned and he is not pure black. His dad was part black, part white, part Native American, and part Asian and his mother is white and Asian. That’s not pure black! Being pure black means having pure black African ancestry. That man is multigenerationally mixed, okay! Get it straight!
February 17th, 2010
Another comment, why do you all want somebody to be pure black? No offensive, please visit the Motherland if you want to see pure blacks so bad. In America, most of us are mixed.
February 21st, 2010
discussing races is narrowminded since you are a mixed culture. tiger woods only stands for himself but nothing else i think
February 21st, 2010
LOOK AT THE GUY .HES BLACK END OFF
February 28th, 2010
He isn’t pure black!
