Indeed, while it’s a norm for golfers to have their websites, the 15-time major championship winner has a breathtaking database that has all the detailed metrics from his glorious career.

Woods’ preparations ahead of the Masters

In the twilight of his professional career, the golf legend will be keen on getting his hands on another major championship.
