When Tiger Woods made his television debut

Tiger Woods has been adamant about playing golf ever since the first time he held the club as a kid. There was something different about him, and both his parents felt that. And that is why Earl and Kultida Woods were the golfer’s biggest supporters since his childhood.

According to TigerWoods.com, the golf star started showing interest in the sport when he was just six months old. It was when he watched his father Earl Woods hitting golf balls into a net. Little Woods even tried to imitate his father’s actions at such a young age.

As the host announced his name along with his father, fans couldn’t help but show endearment towards the little boy.

How did little Woods introduce himself?

Tiger Woods, with a bag his size on his shoulder, walked with a cute smile toward the stage. As soon as he reached the center of the stage, Woods pulled out his club with the help of his father. And without wasting any time, the golfer hit the ball with all his might, getting well-deserved applause from the audience.
