Summary:
In 2009, Tiger Woods was the most famous athlete on the planet, a transcendent star of almost unfathomable fame and fortune living what appeared to be the perfect life. Married to a Swedish beauty and the father of two young children, he was the winner of fourteen major golf championships and earned more than $100 million annually. Until one Thanksgiving night, when an accident exposed his serial infidelity and sent his personal and professional lives over a cliff. Still, the world has always wondered: Who is Tiger Woods, really? In the #1 New York Times bestseller "Tiger Woods", Jeff Benedict and Armen Keteyian look deep behind the headlines to produce a richly reported answer to that question. Conducting hundreds of interviews with people from every corner of Woods's life-friends, family members, teachers, romantic partners, coaches, business associates, physicians, Tour pros, and members of Woods's inner circle-they have uncovered new, intimate, and surprising details about the child prodigy who became one of the most influential and unforgettable athletes of our time. Sweeping and revelatory, "Tiger Woods" is the definitive biography of an authentic American legend. --from Publisher.
