“Instead of women being outraged by Tiger and the tampon, I would love for them to actually provide ideas to help,” she tweeted. “For example I would have Tampex team up with the PGA tour to run a campaign where they provide free feminine products at golf courses. Most don’t actually have them and during long rounds, it can be a problem for us.”
