Ever wonder what a day in the life of Tiger Woods is like? In this week’s podcast, host Dave Berner talks to Senior Staff Writer Chris Baldwin about his experience shadowing the world’s No. 1 golfer around New York City during a recent promotional tour for his new video game.
“It seems like Tiger’s at the point now where he tries to block out everything around him,” Baldwin says. “He’s very guarded on these things, and he’s not trying to open up to people. His best points were when he played the game with some kids. He was good with the kids, and that was probably the most personable he was.”
WorldGolf.com’s Bill Wolfrum discusses the LPGA Tour’s season-ending event, the Samsung World Championship.
“The one interesting thing is it’s an invitation only event,” Wolfrum says. “Players are invited on their success through the year. But the one thing Samsung did at the start of this year, is they gave a sponsor’s exemption to Michelle Wie … who has had just a hideous, hideous year.”
In this week’s What’d You Like segment, Equipment Editor Kiel Christianson lauds the Nicklaus Dual Slot Wedge.
“I like it a lot,” Christianson says. “The first time out with it, I came about three inches from an ace.”
