Tiger Woods is a living legend!!!
Tiger Woods is a well-known golfer, but how much do you know about him? Have you ever heard or seen golf? You'll learn about Tiger in this article.
In the year 1975, Tiger Woods was born. Tiger's father built a driving range out of a carpet and a net in his garage when he was a baby. "Perfection comes with practice," they say. Tiger would watch his father practicing from his high chair.
His father sawed off a golf club when Tiger was 9 months old so that he could hit the ball into the net with it. His parents hired a coach for him when he was four years old. He first entered junior competitions when he was six years old.
Tiger listened to cassettes in order to boost his self-esteem. His father assisted him in learning to focus in the face of distractions. "I'm a tree," he stated in front of Tiger, and he'd have to hit the ball over his father. Earl would jingle his cash in his pocket or roll a ball in front of Tiger to distract him, and Tiger learnt to focus on the game.
Despite the fact that it was at times irritating, the training was beneficial to him. During one of Tiger's swings at the ball, a walkie-talkie produced a loud noise. Because he was so intent on hitting the ball, he claimed he never heard the radio.
He is unable to accept defeat. When he loses, though, he does not become enraged; rather, he goes out and works even harder to avoid making the same errors.
He won four major golf competitions in 2000, when he was 24 years old, including the US Amateur, the British Open, and the British Amateur.
He had surgery on his left knee in 2008 and missed the rest of the PGA Tour season. He has two children, a son Sam and a daughter Charlie, with his wife Elin.
