Dear Tiger, I’m baffled and dejected. My club twirl, my pre-shot routine, and my favorite red golf shirt that I only wear on the most special of occasions has been directly related to your domination in golf...
The only way I ever made it off the tee successfully was my own, patented swing thought intertwined with a personally constructed pre-shot routine. Don’t be fooled, a man’s swing thought is a precious thing and can never be revealed...
