The answers to so many of the golf quizzes on this site are Tiger Woods. He appears in the list of most answers to the quizzes, such as Most Majors Won, and Most Masters Won and ... oh I had better stop there in case I start giving away answers to too many of our quizzes. But the brains trust behind the Golf Monthly quizzes have come up with an idea of ensuring that Tiger Woods cannot be an answer in at least one of our quizzes – that is by making the whole quiz about Tiger Woods. Clever, hey? Well they think so anyway
He has captured the public imagination like few sportsman have. Part of it is his heritage, which he has described as "Cablinasian" as he is one-quarter Thai, one-quarter Chinese, one-quarter Caucasian, one-eighth African-American and one-eighth Native American. His mother, Tida, considers him to be primarily Asian, as "a mother raises her son, and he had an Asian mother." She also raised him as a Buddhist, a faith he still follows.
His father, Earl, was a keen golfer got Tiger interested in golf. Earl was a good golfer himself as it was not until he was 11 years old that Tiger able to beat him – although it is said that after this Tiger never again lost a game of golf to his father. Tiger was an infant prodigy at golf. Aged 2 he appeared on the Mike Douglas Show, alongside Bob Hope, demonstrating his golfing prowess.
