The impossible life of Tiger Woods--how did he become the GOAT, and what drove him to fall so spectacularly? In Pattersons hands, Tigers story is a hole-in-one thriller.
Filled with brand-new interviews, Tiger Woods is the first nonfiction collaboration between James Patterson and golf reporter Peter de Jonge, co-authors of the New York Times bestselling Miracle golf novels.
Tiger Woods is unrivaled as an athlete.
He made the ultimate commitment to his chosen sport--and transformed it.
Before the age of twenty-five, he rose to phenomenon status: twice named Sportsman of the Year by Sports Illustrated ; won more than thirty professional tournaments; and became the youngest player to win pro golfs four Grand Slam tournaments.
How did Woods do it? On watching the ball, Woods says, I practice putting with my left eye closed, so I cant see the target line at all with my peripheral vision.
That makes it easier to keep my eyes looking straight down.
Patterson and de Jonge tap into the transformative moments of Woodss life, revealing in vivid, dramatic scenes what Woods saw and felt on the course and in his inner life--from his only perfect shot (a 3-wood on No.
14 at St.
Andrews) to his missed first putt at the 1995 Masters through his recent comeback tours.
