Hey: the suit is not about the facts surrounding his steroid use, it's about how those facts were obtained by the authors. I don't think it's pertinent to discuss whether he used (uses) them or not, as I think most people accept that he did. The question is, can we accept him as a true athletic icon. For me, it will be a sad day when/if he breaks Ruth's and Aaron's records.

Doctor who treated Woods faces FBI investigation into doping claims
I sense the sentiment here is that, if Tiger did use performance enhancing drugs, he used them unintentionally. I have felt for a long time that the lanky young man who initially presented himself as the youngest (21) person to ever win the masters evaporated at some point along the way. This is a ripped hunk of a guy who begs a closer look.
