About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
Twenty-five years ago, Tiger Woods achieved the greatest feat in golf history: the ‘Tiger Slam’. Now, for the first time, the award-winning author of Tommy’s Honor delivers a riveting account of Tiger at his most brilliant - dominating the game in a way we will never see again.
In 1997 Tiger Woods wins the Masters by the largest margin in history, becoming the first Black player to win a major championship. Four years later, the world watches with breathless anticipation as he returns to Augusta National, aiming for a milestone no other golfer has ever achieved: four professional Grand Slam triumphs in a row.
In The Tiger Slam, Kevin Cook delivers a gripping, inside-the-ropes account of an astonishing streak of victories. Listeners will hear from many of golf’s biggest names—Tiger’s caddie, his coach, his opponents, his idols and others, all offering fresh insight into the electrifying highs of his triumphs and the obstacles on and off the course that threatened his relentless pursuit of perfection.
The Tiger Slam is the epitome of greatness in sport, a feat as exhilarating today as it was twenty-five years ago. Kevin Cook invites us to close our eyes and see a young champion at the peak of his powers: unmatched raw strength, single-minded focus, strategic genius, and utter fearlessness. The Tiger Slam takes listeners behind the scenes in the thrilling months when Tiger Woods took an ancient game to new heights.
