About this listen

Instant New York Times Bestseller!

“Patterson’s account is compelling” (Daily Mail). The only major author to have nine holes-in-one gets inside the mystery of Tiger Woods in a biography that reads like an unputdownable thriller.

On April 13, 1986, ten-year-old Tiger Woods watches his idol, Jack Nicklaus, win his record sixth Masters.

Just over a decade later, chants of “Ti-ger, Ti-ger!” ring out as the twenty- one-year-old wins his first Green Jacket.

He blazes an incredible path, winning fourteen major titles (second only to Nicklaus himself) by the time he’s thirty- three, smashing records and raising standards.

Then come multiple public scandals and potentially career-ending injuries.

The once-assured champion becomes an all-American underdog. “YouTube golfer” is how his two children know their father—winless since 2013—until he wins the 2019 Masters, his fifteenth major, before their eyes.

But the story doesn’t end there.

Tiger, Tiger is the first full-scale Woods biography of the decade. In James Patterson’s hands, this story is a hole-in- one thriller.

Nothing really new

Thorough, chronological account of the known life of Tiger Woods. If you are much of a golf fan you won't hear anything new about Tiger. Lots of researching of past information was probably hard work though. I expected more from James Patterson. Read/listen to Hank Haney's book to get a little behind the scenes info about Tiger. Performer should learn correct pronunciations.

Interesting

Very interesting about Tiger Woods. Went into a lot more detail about him growing up and then his scandals.

Should have asked a golfer to narrate

The story is very good but the narration is terrible. Most of the golf course names and golf terminology are mispronounced. If the narrator called Seve Ballesteros “Steve” one more time I was going to stop listening.

Really great history lesson but bad pronunciation.

Was really excited about this and it was good but the narrator said so many names incorrectly it was infuriating.

Very thorough and enlightening.

It was a good overview of Tiger's life and career. It would have been better with a narrator who has ever watched or played golf. At least do a pronunciation review before publication.

It felt like the book was read "cold' with no preparation. Same name/term would be pronounced differently. Many golf terms and players' names were butchered... STEVE Ballestrros? Tony Fin-now? aZINGer? Many others. Get a sports/golf analyst from NBC or ESPN to re recoed it.

Never seen such poor pronunciation

The narrator has literally never been around pro golf you can tell as he completely butchers every single name that is not “Smith” or “Woods”. Honestly wild how little effort he puts into the reading of names, even calling Seve Ballesteros, Steve…

Narrator mispronouncing too often

The story is basically a chronological review of tiger’s career no real personal insights
But the constant mispronouncing of players’ names, course names and even the name of the trophies was irritating

Great book, Awful narration

The book is fantastic. The narrator mailed it in. Monotone. Mispronounced many well known names ie calls Seve Ballateros “Steve”

narrator obviously not a golf fan

Possibly the issue was the tight timeline between the end of the book and production of the audible version if the book but whoever produced/supervised the production of this audible version of the book should be ashamed of the effort. Names of many foreign golfers and several golf courses were badly mispronounced to the point of being distracting. Definitely a read rather than a listen choice.
