London, December 29 : Hollywood producers are reportedly eyeing the Tiger Woods scandal as fodder for a TV movie.

Oscar-winning actor Cuba Gooding Jr is being tipped to play the role based on the shamed golfer.

"It makes a great movie because people love the drama of seeing someone really ­successful fall from the top and then ­scramble to pick up the pieces of their life," the Daily Express quoted a leading producer as saying.

"It proves that even the world''s greatest athlete is human just like the rest of us but the movie needs to be made before the public loses interest in Tiger so the race is now on," the producer added.

Woods said he was taking "an indefinite break from professional golf" after admitting infidelity. (ANI)
