Hair gone wild
The world got its first glimpse at Tiger Woods’ new hairdo Thursday when he had to wear a suit and tie for the opening ceremony of the Presidents Cup. Essentially, it looks as if someone took a paint brush and put huge light-blond splotches in Woods’ hair. Woods covered up the look when he donned a hat for the matches. He also refused to take off his hat for reporters after his practice round Wednesday. Asked to explain the new look, Woods said: “Just having fun. Got to do it while I’ve still got it.”

Mom gives away the sign
What’s New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter thinking about when he’s at the plate? Maybe mother knows best. His mother, Dorothy, communicates with her son during games. She says her son will look at her and raise his eyes in a secret message. “We communicate,” she says in a “60 Minutes” profile on the player to be broadcast Sunday. “Sometimes he’ll just stick his head up and go like (raise his eyes). It means he’s going to try to hit a home run. I shouldn’t give that away, should I?”

Strictly Bush league
From comedian Alex Kaseberg: “John Gotti Jr. skated on all racketeering charges. Again, not sure President Bush understands. When told John Gotti Jr. walked on all racketeering charges, Bush said, ‘We will continue to try and arrest everyone who makes illegal rackets whether for tennis, badminton or squash.”‘
