Not all was cheery, however, after Mike Weir's historic win. Georgia state police received a 911 call at approximately 7:12 PM local time reporting the sound of gunshots in a nearby hotel. Upon arriving at the scene, Deputy Sheriff Val Hammond made a chilling discovery, as a man was found dead in a room he had reserved since Monday afternoon of this week, apparently as a result of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Clues as to the reason for the apparent suicide were sketchy, as the man, described as a slightly obese white man in his late thirties had relatively few possessions with him, and no identification. All that was found was the man's laptop computer, and a wallet containing a photo of two small white dogs, and an apparently self-made business card featuring Tiger Woods' famous "TW" logo and the word "TigerCast" emblazoned next to it.
