This book really had very little informative stuff. This guy obviously does not know how to write a good biography. It was sooo boring and there really wasen't that much stuff. It almost seems like John Strege collected a lot of newspapers and got some info. from the internet and went straight on to write what he calls a "biography". It's nothing but a summary a lot of games played by Tiger...nothing more! It doesn't go much into his personal life, if that's what you want.

A good biography of Tiger. Goes into details of his growing up period, his life during college and as an amateur. Well written.
Old now and hence some facts have changed. Covers till his professional debut, still very interesting reading

I would recommend this book to anyone who likes to read about sports and outstanding athletes, such as Tiger Woods. The author of this book, John Strege, has known Tiger since he was a young boy. He is a good friend of Tiger's family and has written a great book with lots of information that can't be found other places. Tiger has had a very short but amazing golf career, and his career is well documented in this biography by Strege.

This amazing book written by John Strege should be read by all young golfers. This book tells about how Tiger and his family have to live through the struggles of racism and how Tiger prevails over other golfers. Tiger is an ordinary boy growing up except that he's black. At 5 years old Tiger was playing exceptional golf. Tiger travels all around the U.S.A. to play in golf tournaments and only gets better along the way. The theme is about Tiger going from good to great. I loved this story because of all the suspense that builds up and how tiger achieved greatness in the golf world.

This is a fantastic book! Anyone who enjoys golf or just likes biographies will enjoy this book. Look at the "real" Tiger Woods in this awesome book. I give this baby a 5 star rating. Pick one up, and enjoy it!

I read this book a couple of weeks ago for a book report in my english and i would rate it about a four out of a five. I like most of it but some of it didn't need to be in the book. There is a part about his swing and it was not very nessecry to add. That is one thing they could have kept out. Another thing that inpressed me alot was that they had alot about the first tournment he played in on the Tour. They also had alot of first like his first hole in one, his first best round, and the first time he played in a tournment. The best part of the book from my opionen is the part where they talked about how he was going to go the Stanford to play golf. The coach at Stanford was watching him play when he was 13 years old. Also, he played with Jack Nickulus, a great golfer when he was a child, at a camp in Florida. He was getting into the pros when he was about 20 years old. That is one of the youngest players ever to play on tour up intill today. The coach of Stanford was a very good golfer a long time ago named Mr. Goodwin. He made the program at Stanford very well and and developed. What made him such a good golfer was when he was young he went to the range and hit balls more then he played on the course.

This book is very well written. And besides the facts may be a little off. It is a must read for any golf fan!!!

I thought that this book about tiger woods is a good book because it has alot of information on him from when he was a baby to when he turned into a pro golfer. In the biography tiger starded golfing at three years old ,tiger was even on a tv show to show the would how good he was at four years old. as he was growing up tiger entered into alot of tornaments and because he was so good he became pro after coming out of stanford college. i would recomend this book to people who are wanting to know alot about tiger woods.
