Tiger Woods is, without a doubt, one of the greatest golfers of all time in sports history. He is regarded among the top athletes to play the game of golf. Not to mention that globally he’s been the number one player for the most successive weeks.

When Tiger Woods saw himself in a virtual gaming environment holding a PlayStation move!

The game was initially launched on March 29th, 2011 for multiple consoles. During that time, it made its way to the platforms like PlayStation 3, Wii, Xbox 360, PC, and Mac OS X. Moreover, it was also the last title in its franchise that was revealed for a Nintendo device.

Based on Tiger Woods, himself, how was it possible for the legend to miss it? Thus the golfer showed interest to play the simulation game in its finished form, just ahead of its launch in early 2011. Interestingly, he was holding a PlayStation move in his hands to play PGA Tour 12.

As is seen above, already, Tiger Woods started on a positive note by just missing the mark while taking a long shot. Unfortunately, though, he couldn’t succeed in achieving a hole in one. But he did manage to send the ball in the hole at the end of the brief clip. The video was shared by the official channel of EA SPORTS MADDEN NFL before the game’s release.
