i doubt he could be convinced to five up the tour but Tiger would be the ultimate candidate to take out a RINO, ie. Graham, in the next election.
I think he could win it going away, especially after this.
12 footer under that kind of pressure is very difficult. The stuff of dreams.
What a great story, SandRat. Bumped my opinion of Tiger up a few more notches.
As a side note on Tiger driving off the hanger deck, it reminds me of an old SeaStory from waaaay back in the 60’s.
Like all good Sea Stories, this one begins with... “Now this is no s#@t.”
We were moored in Subic. Couple of my fellow Divers were having a discussion about who could drive a golf ball the furthest.
To settle the argument, they took Willy’s golf bag back to the DASH flight deck. Teed up using a broom to hold the tee and ball. Mac took the first swing launching the ball out into the bay -except... he hooked it and it landed inside the well deck of a floating drydock. We could hear it bouncing off the bulkheads.
The contest was over and they gathered up the broom and golf bag. Willie was declared the winner without a swing.
Bump for a really great story. Thanks for posting it. Tiger is a first class man. I could not have imagined anyone handing over his putter to let his caddie take a birdie shot.
A big salute to Tiger Woods.
Outstanding.
'So I jump ship in Hong Kong and make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a course over in the Himalayas. A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I’m a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald… striking. So, I’m on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one - big hitter, the Lama - long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga… gunga, gunga-galunga. So we finish the eighteenth and he’s gonna stiff me. And I say, “Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know.” And he says, “Oh, uh, there won’t be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness.” So I got that goin’ for me, which is nice.'
