We’ve known that HBO’s documentary about Tiger Woods has been in the works since May, but as we inch closer to the release date of ‘Tiger’ more details are starting to emerge about the two-part project.
Initially, it was rumored that the documentary would be released during this year’s unique Masters week in November, but now we know that the two episodes will make their debut at 9:00 PM EST on January 10 and January 17.
HBO released a teaser trailer for the documentary back on November 12 and now the network has gifted us with the official trailer and holy hell does this look good. It really does look like the documentary is going to be the perfect mix of Tiger on the course, his rise to the top, and his, let’s say adventures, off the course. From throwback videos of Woods going to prom to a sit-down interview with Rachel Uchitel, we’re going to see and hear things we never have involving the GOAT.
TIGER is driven by never-before-seen footage and revealing interviews with those who know the golfer best, including his former caddy and close friend, Steve Williams; golf legend and six-time major champion Sir Nick Faldo; Earl Woods’ friend and biographer, Pete McDaniel; Tiger’s first true love, Dina Parr; as well as Rachel Uchitel, the woman at the center of the sex scandal that forever altered Tiger’s world, breaking her silence with her first-ever sit-down interview about their relationship, according to HBO.
The slogan ‘Tiger’ is using to promote the documentary is ‘The Rise. The Fall. The Return.’ and it sure looks like we’re going to get an in-depth look at all three of those chapters in Tiger’s life.
