Hurt by Tiger's sin, fans shuts website dedicated to the golfer

The transgressions of Tiger Woods have proved too much to take for one of the golf superstar's most fanatical fans who is now disbanding a church set up in praise of the sports icon.

John Ziegler, the pastor of the "First Church of Tiger Woods" www.tigerwoodsisgod.com has announced in a statement on the blog that the organisation is being dissolved because of the golfer's "personal sins."

The church, whose home page has now been rechristened "The Damnation of Tiger Woods," was launched by radio host Ziegler in 1996 to "celebrate the emergence of the 'true messiah.'"

However the lurid revelations that have swirled around Woods since last week have left Ziegler so disenchanted that he is now ending his church.

"After several days of evaluation, I have decided to disband the First Church of Tiger Woods," Ziegler wrote.
