Winning 100+ titles and creating numerous records worldwide, Tiger Woods has become the most looked-upon player in the professional golfing world. Hence, it is not a surprise that everyone would want to know how he practices on and off-season and what he eats in a day to keep his body fit. 

Ever since his debut in 1996, the 15-time major champion has always shown interest in keeping his body athletic. Looking at his physique, one would think that he eats less to continue having a lean body. However, the truth is far from what everyone would think.

Tiger Woods has been playing professional golf for more than 25 years. Throughout these years, the golfer has faced many injuries, which needed surgeries a lot of times. However, one has never seen him out of shape ever. And according to the GolfTV interview he gave in 2019, it is not because he eats less food daily. 

“If I’m at home, I’ll eat five to seven meals in a day,” he said in the series, ‘Wayward Drives with Henni,’ on GolfTV. “I struggle with keeping my weight up,” he explained why he follows such a diet. “So if I don’t eat enough, I typically lose weight very quickly.”

Notably, the golfer gave the interview when he was in Mexico, and he revealed that something about the country increased his appetite. “I don’t know what it is, but this altitude, I’ve been starving,” he added. “I’ve been eating so much food and just so hungry all the time.” Furthermore, he explained how he has been eating while practicing and craving food in the middle of the night.

Practicing and working out are two of the most important things to becoming a good athlete. However, Woods thinks eating plenty of food is also necessary. In fact, the 1-time major champion, Lexi Thompson, had once revealed that the golfer had told her to “eat more” when she asked him for a piece of advice to keep her going on the golf course.
