Days After Breaking His Insane Record, Rose Zhang Reveals Her Unique Relationship With Tiger Woods: ‘I’m on The Right Track’

The golfing world is now turning its attention to the LPGA Tour’s innovative event: The Mizuho Americas Open, as the joyous PGA Championship comes to an end. It features a number of well-known golfers, including Jin Young Ko, Lydia Ko, and Lilia Vu. These outstanding golfers are prepared to perform at their absolute peak on the course. Among these exalted players, Rose Zhang is one young golfer that everyone is raving about.

Zhang is the first golfer to have two individual NCAA women’s championship victories. But she is best known for breaking the record that Tiger Woods had held for 27 years. She has done so much in her brief career with her exceptional play and graceful drives that a new golfer could only dream of. With this, she is back on track to reaffirm her value to the golfing world. But in the midst of all this, let’s see what she has to say about the GOAT himself!

Rose Zhang talks about Tiger Woods

After breaking Tiger Woods‘ record and being represented by the same agency as Woods, Zhang was recently questioned in a press conference for the Mizuho Americas Open about whether she had ever spoken to him. Any suggestions she received from Woods in recent days.

Zhang firmly retorted that, although she had not yet received counsel from Woods, his mere presence had provided her with enough inspiration. She looks up to Woods as a role model and is awestruck by the accomplishments and contributions he has made to the game of golf. She added that Woods occasionally texts her coach, Walker, to inquire about her performance. He also sent his wishes to Zhang. For Zhang, as long as Woods is keeping a tab on her, she is doing great.

“So I never really had any conversations with him, but he did text Coach Walker here and there, oh, congrats to Rose. It just shows that I’m on the right track if he’s able to keep up tabs somewhat of what I’m doing,” Zhang said.

Not only Woods, but Zhang also talks about her major decision.

Zhang discusses the reason behind her turning pro

Recently a few days back, Zhang makes a celebratory announcement on Instagram. The most accomplished female amateur golfer in it makes a huge declaration about turning pro.

When asked in the presser, how she decided that it was time for her to be professional? She replied that after doing well in college golf, she realized that she had the potential to go for it professionally. Zhang considered her choice carefully before making it. She added that because her family, coaches, and agents all backed her, she found it simple to make the choice. Whatever happens professionally, she still has time to make amends because she is still a student.

“I think the logistics part of being able to go to school while being a professional also played a huge role in me deciding to turn pro,” Zhang said.

After her decision, the USGA granted her a special exemption for the U.S. Women’s Open and the AIG Women’s Open at Walton Heath. Well, we can’t wait to see what magic she will bring to the course.
