Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The smash New York Times bestseller (more than 270,000 hardcover copies sold) by the father and mentor of the PGA sensation Tiger Woods, Training a Tiger is an invaluable guide parents can use to teach their children golf and important life lessons as well.

From the moment Tiger Woods turned pro, fans have been on the edge of their seats watching one thrilling performance after another, and millions of kids and adults have been turned on to the sport because of Tiger's charisma and breathtaking abilities. From his shot-making skills and mental toughness to his confidence, integrity, and demeanor, Tiger sets the standard for public figures.

In Training a Tiger, Earl Woods provides insight into the kind of perspective, instruction, and training that goes into raising a champion who plays his or her best on — and off — the green. He offers advice on when and how to introduce golf (or any sport) to a child, how to lay the groundwork for open communication, and how to cultivate a positive competitive attitude. An intelligent mix of instruction, anecdotes, and common sense. Training a Tiger helps parents everywhere guide their kids to become good golfers — and great people.
