Tiger Woods does not consider himself “the greatest ever”, despite his great achievements in the field of golf.
The 82-time PGA Tour champion made a presentation on Tuesday’s Golf Digest “Tiger Round: Celebrity Course“-A four-part miniseries, filmed in February, the day before Woods’ accident in Rancho Palos Verdes.
In this episode, his guest and retired NBA star Dwyane Wade asked the 45-year-old golfer if he felt uncomfortable being called a “goat”.
“I am not a goat,” Woods was quoted people As said.
“Well, let’s get started. Let’s get started,” Wade replied. “Some people will say,’Goat! The greatest ever!’ You will say,’Well, I’m not because…’ You have a reason for you.”
However, Woods rejected this compliment, insisting that he “has not arrived yet.”
Wade continued to pressure and asked him, “What made you there? When will it be done?”
“I’m not finished yet,” Woods replied.
Wade asked Woods again if he would consider himself a goat after he “done,” but the golfer gave the same answer, “I’m not done yet.”
“So you can’t be a goat while you are still playing?” the former Miami Heat player asked again.
“I’m not done yet,” the 41-time European Tour champion said for the third time.
Earlier in this episode, Wade told the camera before his golf class that he was “happy to have the opportunity to be with Woods”, calling him the “goat” there.
“You know, that’s why I chose golf clubs because Tiger makes it cool,” said the NBA alumnus. “So I want to learn something from the greatest man ever.”
In addition to Wade, Woods’ miniseries also invited Jada Pinkett Smith and David Spade as guests.
At the same time, PGA Tour veteran Jason Gore also praised Woods for reaching the top of the sport with his own strength. Gore witnessed the greatness of Woods and recalled how Woods was already “better” on the court when he was 12 years old.
“[Tiger was] At 12 years old, he was really very, very good,” Gore Tell Golf.com was interviewed last week. “You never really realized how good he would be because you just thought he would be exhausted. There were a lot of other players being pushed by their parents at the time. But you never realize that he is self-motivated. He is just better. He is still better.”
He continued, “You know, if you compete with him, you might beat him in a hole somehow, you have something. He is great.”
The police believe that Tiger Woods may have accidentally stepped on the accelerator of the car when trying to step on the brakes.
