Tiger Woods Once Revealed His Lost Love for F1, Schumacher, and What Caused It to Fade

15-time Major winner Tiger Woods needs no introduction to golf fans around the world. But little did we know that Tiger also liked sports other than golf and more.

Woods mentioned how much he followed F1 and Michael Schumacher in an interview with Golf Digest.

The interviewer asks Woods about his interest in sports other than golf and any other sport that he followed. To this, Woods opened up about his old passion for F1 back in his mid-20s. He mentioned Michael Schumacher and said that he was dominant at the time.

Woods said, “Well, when I was probably in my early-mid-20s, I was calling a lot of F1, in which Schumacher was dominant.”

Tiger Woods said that earlier, no one was anywhere near Michael and he was better than everybody else on the team. He said that he watched Michael dominate F1 for over a decade.

“I would certainly watch and he just dominated the sport for over a decade.”, Tiger said. Woods also mentioned that the whole Ferrari team was far away from where Michael Schumacher was.
