Tiger
Woods
Eldrick (Tiger) Woods was born on December 30, 1975 in Cypress, California.
One year later Tiger saw his father hitting golf balls into a net. Then Woods
took a golf club and he started imitating his fathers, swing. At the age of
three Tiger shot a 48 over 9 holes at the Navy Golf Club in Cypress, California.
At the age of five tiger appeared on the Golf Diggest the magazine, and on ABC’s
That’s Incredible. Three years later Tiger won the
Optimist, International, and the Junior Championship. He would repeat this win
at the ages 9, 12, 13, 14, and 15. At the age of eight Tiger became extremely
great at golf. Tiger’s parents were Earl and Kulitda Woods. Six years later
Woods went to Western
High School. Then five
years later Tiger intended Stanford
University, and he
continued to play golf. Then Woods married Elin Nordegren. His kids were
Charlie and Sam. Elin and Tiger were residences of Orlando, Florida.
Today in 2009 Tiger Woods is 6’1 and 185 pounds and 33 years old.

Woods is an amazing professional golfer. He even starred in a Gillette
Commercial. Tiger has 13 major wins. He earned $9,188,321 in the World Cup in

of 21, and won the World Cup with David Duval.
In 2005
Tiger made a charity for the poor people so they can give money to the poor
people to buy clothing. Woods also paid for the minority to play golf.
After doing all
that research on Tiger Woods I admire him because when he was only 3 years old
and he shot a 48 over 9 at the Navy Golf Club.
I learned about
Tiger Woods was that if you put your best effort into everything you can do it.
