About this listen
To mark the 20th anniversary of his historic win at the 1997 Masters, Tiger Woods will for the first time reflect on the record-setting win both on and off the course.
In 1997 Tiger Woods was already among the most watched and closely examined athletes in history. But it wasn't until the Masters Tournament that his career would definitively change forever. Woods, then only 21, won the Masters by a historic 12 shots, which remains the widest margin of victory in the tournament's history, making it an iconic moment for him and sports.
Now, 20 years later, Woods is ready to explore his history with the game, how it has changed over the years, and what it was like winning such an important event. With never-before-heard stories, this book will provide keen insight from one of the game's all-time greats.

Story
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. Winner of 14 major golf championships and 79 PGA Tour events, Woods was the first billion-dollar athlete, earning more than $100 million a year in endorsements from the likes of Nike, Gillette, AT&T, and Gatorade. But it was all a carefully crafted illusion. As it turned out, Woods had been living a double life for years.

The task facing Steve Stricker at the 2021 Ryder Cup was enormous. It was his job, as the American captain, to stare down almost 40 years of Ryder Cup history, break a pattern of home losses that had persisted almost as long, and reverse the tide of European dominance in one of golf's most tense and emotional events. This was the epitome of a must-win, but it was also something more—in the entire 93-year history of the event, no American side had ever faced this kind of pressure.

Legendary sportswriter Red Smith characterized Ben Hogan’s comeback from a near-fatal automobile crash in February 1949 as “the most remarkable feat in the history of sports.” Now, more than 60 years later, that statement still rings true. The crowning moment of Hogan’s comeback was his astonishing victory in the 1950 U.S. Open at Merion Golf Club near Philadelphia, where his battered legs could barely carry him on the 36-hole final day.

It is no secret that more than two-thirds of the shots a golfer makes are shorts ones: putts, chips, and pitches. Long drives may garner applause, but whether a golfer wants to win the Masters or just five bucks from a friend on Saturday morning, it’s the little shots that make the difference. In The Unstoppable Golfer, Dr. Bob Rotella takes the same wisdom and experience that have worked for clients like Davis Love III and David Toms to help you master this special art of short shots and avoid all the frustration out of this increasingly challenging element of the game.

Surprisingly, one of sport’s most contentious, complex, and defining clashes played out not in the boxing ring or at the line of scrimmage but on the genteel green fairways of the world’s finest golf courses. Arnie and Jack. Palmer and Nicklaus. Their 50-year duel, in both the clubhouse and the boardroom, propelled each to the status of American icon and pushed modern golf to the heights and popularity it enjoys today. Yet for all the ink that has been spilled on these two essential golf figures individually, no one has ever examined their relationship in this way.

Story
He's been called the best in the world at the mental game of tennis. Brad Gilbert's strokes may not be pretty, but looks aren't everything. He has beaten the tour's biggest names - all by playing his "ugly" game. Now, in Winning Ugly, Gilbert teaches recreational players how to win more often without necessarily even changing their strokes. The key to success, he says, is to become a better thinking player - to recognize, analyze, and capitalize. That means out-thinking opponents before, during, and after a match - forcing him or her to play your game.

Fun!
I had a blast listening to one of the worlds best athletes. There were some touching moments in this, and he gave fun insights to his personal life. I’m so glad that he did this. It’s a must listen if you like golf and Tiger.

The Tiger Woods I never knew
After watching the 2024 Masters, I took an interest in Tiger Woods' life. I am old to to remember when he hit the public scene in the mid-90s, his private life layed bare for us all to witness, and most importantly, the media's expoaure and interpretation of who HE was.
I enjoyed listening to his life as he sees it. Thank you for sharing, TW!

Insightful!
In addition to a great review of the 1997 Masters through Tigers eyes, this book answers a lot of questions about why Tiger is who he is and his drive to win and be the best. A nice peak into his upbringing and how his relationship with his dad and mom shaped his personality.

Spellbound by Dad at 14 Majors?
I remember being at a pub and drinking green beer for St. Patrick's while enthralled with a golf conversation when a mutual friend, a non golfer, approached and loudly announced, "You two are so boring!" Decades later I hesitated to buy thinking it is golf, how exciting can it be? I just really like hearing golfers recount their rounds with emotion. It is odd his dad said 14 majors but he didn't say "just" 14.

A win for the ages
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
If you are a fan of Tiger, I recommend this. Not only does he discuss the 1997 Masters win but he also gives insight to his amateur career and thoughts on his future as a golfer and his foundation.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The 1997 Masters?
I enjoyed hearing about his relationship with Charlie Sifford and Lee Elder.

Play by play but not much more
I am a huge Tiger fan and I would say that this is vintage Tiger for better or worse. It's a play by play which is interesting. How he played this shot or that shot. But it lacks a more compelling subtext, which I guess is to be expected from someone so private and introverted.
