SHANGHAI (AP) - Tiger Woods' former caddie has caused another sensation, this time by using a racial slur to disparage his old boss during a caddies award roast in Shanghai.

Steve Williams received a mock award on Friday night for 'Celebration of the Year' for his TV interview after Adam Scott won the Bridgestone Invitational.
That was the day Williams said it was 'the best win of his life,' despite being on the bag with Woods for 13 majors.
At an awards party filled with banter, Williams described his former employer in racially insulting terms which drew the biggest reaction from several players, caddies, officials and some media. There was a mixture of laughter and shock, with some players turning to each other with eyes widened and jaws agape.
