Itâs one of the greatest comebacks of all time. And for Tiger Woodsâhis game, his body, and his life in shamblesâgetting back to the winnerâs circle was only half the story. Hereâs the rest of it.
What The Reviewers Say
Michael Bamberger, who has covered Woods since the golfer was an amateur, draws upon his deep network of sources inside locker rooms, caddie yards, clubhouses, fitness trailers and back offices to tell the true and inspiring story of the legend’s return. Packed with new information and graced by insight, Bamberger’s story reveals how this iconic athlete clawed his way back to the top.
Mr. Bamberger’s book is...thoughtful and focuses more explicitly on peeling back the Tiger Woods enigma. Mr. Bamberger goes out of his way to be fair, clearly distinguishing between what we can know and what we will probably never know. His speculations about the private Woods, always labeled as such, are informed by his more than three decades of golf reporting and five previous books about golf, including one about caddying for a tour pro. He knows the world of professional golf, and the pressures it exacts, like few others.
As Bamberger tells it, Tiger Woods just didn’t fall; he crashed and burned, emotionally and physically.
