Tiger Woods fields questions from fans
As for the best putt he ever made on tour? Woods said it was par putt from just inside 4 feet on the final hole at the 1997 Masters, which he won by 12 shots with a record score of 270 for his first major.
“To set the record, all the history it meant at the time, to have my dad there at the back of the green,” he said. “By far it was the biggest.”
As for his chances of winning?
“I feel like I do, yes,” Woods said. “I feel like if I do the things that we’ve been working on, and get my posture and takeaway dialed in, then yes, I feel like I have a good chance. I’m going to a golf course I like in Charlotte. I’ve won there before. The very next week is a tournament that I’ve also won at. They’re two ball-striking events. You’ve got to hit the ball really well there at those two tournaments to give yourself a chance, and make a few putts at the same time. I’m looking forward to that.”
