However, the Woods duo could not make it to the championship’s top, which left fans sad. But a clip from an old interaction with Woods will leave smiles on your faces. 

It was not just the pro golfer who was heartbroken when he had to withdraw his name from the Hero World Challenge. His fans all around the world were expecting a big comeback. Instead, they were hit with a statement issued by Woods, saying he won’t be playing at the Hero World Challenge because of plantar fasciitis on his right foot. Since he met the single car accident last year in February, things have been downhill for the golfer regarding his game of golf.

But the clip going viral on Instagram will allow you to walk down memory lane of Woods’ famous fist bump in the air.

Did you know this random fact about Tiger Woods? 

We have often seen Woods celebrating by raising his fist in the air every time he cards a great shot. Out of curiosity, one fan wanted to know if the habit of a fist pump was confined to golf or if it was an off-course habit, too. The question was whether the pro golfer fist pumps for random things outside golf. The immediate answer of the major championship winner was “absolutely.” It wasn’t just on-course celebrating victory. It was much more.

Now you may wonder why he does that. Is it just a random habit, or does it have a meaning behind it? Then let me tell you, the hall of fame golfer does not do things without reason. He is a focused man who calculates his every move. And the same way, there was a reason for it. You might not believe it, but the only reason he does that is that he likes rubbing it in the face of others. He explained his motive, “anytime I get to beat my kids or my friends in anything, I will rub it in, and you know that, oh absolutely forehand or backhand.”
