In an ideal world we should be able to share addresses but it is just too dangerous and we must respect the celebrity. For example Rory McIlroy's email address was very quickly spammed and as a result they stopped giving out signed photos and true fans missed out. I remember speaking to the agent and she was not happy with this website for giving it out and I felt quite sorry for her.
I'm pretty sure this was my fault.
I was looking around one day and found the e-mail, so I decided to send one off because he's my favorite golfer.
When I got it in the mail I was so excited and posted the address not thinking much of it.
But then she e-mailed me asking if I would take it all down, which I did, because she was getting more requests than she could cope with. I then apologized to her, and she thanked me, saying it wasn't a big deal, just that they tried to keep signed things for true fans and charities.

I apologize if I prevented anyone from getting his autograph. I was really excited and not really thinking clearly.
