Tiger Woods’ caddie once uncovered inspiring information

Tiger Woods is surely one of the greatest golfers of all time. But unlike his peers, Woods has never played golf for the money it offers. It is probably the reason he has won so many tournaments in his career. It was all brought to light by Woods’ longtime caddie, Steve Williams, who is currently a part of a podcast series.

In the third episode of the podcast, Williams discussed some habits that set Tiger Woods apart from all his fellow players. He said, “I admired a lot of things about him—but one thing I absolutely admired about Tiger is that at the completion of a tournament you’d into the scorer’s hut and you sign your scorecard and you hand it in. And they always have a sheet with the prize money allocation for everybody, so you can look up on the screen to see how you finished and look down to see how much you won.” Tiger never, ever once took a look at that.”

“He played to win trophies and create records, not for prize money,” Williams added. Woods’ arrival at certain events often forced the sponsors to raise the prize money for the event. As a result, a lot of athletes were able to earn amounts they could never have earned on their own. “Every player looks at that sheet, and he never did,” he said.

Steve Williams reveals the pressure behind working with Woods

In the “All About Tiger Woods” podcast, Willams once talked about how difficult it was to caddie for Tiger Woods. He said that Woods had a goal of winning 21 majors in his career, out of which 15 are already under his name. He revealed how Tiger Woods was always focused on making his game better with each tournament. Williams added how Woods had just won the US Open by 15 strokes, but instead of celebrating, he was more concerned about his plan to play at St Andrews.

Woods’ game has always set him apart from most players. That is what has made him a living legend in the world of golf. However, he is currently struggling with his leg injuries from the unfortunate car crash in February 2021. But hopefully, the golf ace will be back on the field in his best form very soon.
