Tiger Woods‘ fame is still expanding and exceeding the limitations of the sport he has long dominated as players all over the world reconsider their methods and strategies. Recently, during a testing round of TaylorMade clubs, the legend, said something about his technique that left fellow professional golfer Scottie Scheffler stunned.

Since then, experts have been digging into the golf legends claims. And now a former PGA Tour caddie has corroborated his bold assertion, which once seemed almost too unbelievable to be true! So what were these astounding claims?

Tiger Woods reveals a novel technique

Woods has long been renowned for his extraordinary golfing skills and unconventional style of play. In a recently viral video of Woods at TaylorMade’s club testing, the pro can be heard discussing his special method with Scottie Scheffler. In it, the 15-time major winner claims that while hitting the ball well, he does not take a divot!

Scheffler was initially noticeably surprised by this news. After all, it is believed that a diviot, which is a golfer scuffing up the grass while taking a shot, is essential for a good, hard stroke. And Scheffler wasn’t the only one surprised; many dove deep into Woods’ words to find out if they were true. And now Patrick Grimes, a former PGA Tour caddie, has an answer!

Taking to Instagram, Grimes wrote, “Well there you have it. I saw the video of Tiger and Scottie and thought he was messing when he said he doesn’t take a divot when he’s hitting it well.”

But as it turns out, Woods wasn’t messing around at all! And Grimes found that out when he dove deeper. He wrote, “Then in my own archives I looked back and sure enough! There you go ppl 🤯 now go spend the rest of your day practicing your no divot game. Scottie was rethinking his stuff there for a second 🤣.”

In his Instagram video, Grimes discussed his first misgivings about Woods’ claim. He was shocked, though, when he dug through his own records and found proof to support Woods’ assertion.

Momentary Uncertainty for Scottie Scheffler

Scottie Scheffler is becoming a big name in professional golf. The video showed Scheffler’s short pause as he tried to figure out what Woods’ claim meant. 

When Scottie asked Woods about the divot, he replied, “When I’m swinging well… when I’m flushing it, I don’t take divots.”

Woods’ words seemed to have shaken Scheffler’s faith in the traditional techniques he had learned over the years. But he quickly pulled himself together and kept hitting. But perhaps in the back of his mind, he was pondering adapting his shot to be like the golf legends?

Players all around the world are now undoubtedly keen on practicing and perfecting this no-divot game in an effort to imitate Tiger Woods! Do you think Scheffler will be one of them? Share your views with us in the comments below.
