Tiger Woods Was Hitting 300-Yard Bombs At A Junior Golf Clinic And There’s Video!

Yesterday, ESPN published a story that detailed Tiger Woods’ past. For the piece, they also interviewed his friends about his uncertain future in the game of golf. Is it a coincidence that on the very same day when we learn that Michael Jordan thinks Tiger Woods won’t be great again that Tiger Woods surfaces and looks pretty damn good hitting balls? And doing it in front of an audience, no less. Awfully convenient how that happened.

Taking your near-perfect golf game from the range to the course, as any amateur can attest, is not easy. On the range there are no consequences. Only more balls to tee up. On the course every shot is brimming with consequence and one bladed or chunked chip can derail your round in a cocaine heartbeat. That’s why we take videos like these with a grain of salt. Are the videos proof that Tiger Woods is going to be Tiger Woods again? God no. But they give us hope that maybe he wants to be that great golfer again just as bad as we want him to. Because if we’ve learned anything from Woods’ career it’s that he’s a stubborn son of bitch and when leaves competitive golf, he wants to leave on his terms. I’d be willing to bet those terms don’t include being a 40-year-old who is struggling to make the cut.

Three hundred yards ON THE FLY. That’s a long carry.

Here are a few more videos of Tiger’s exhibition. He’s come quite far since the video of him hitting a 9-iron in his simulator.
