Parents of Tiger Woods were the most significant motivator
People say that parents know best, and Tiger Woods proved this fact. However, sometimes facts sound like boasts, but no one knew better than Earl Woods. He was with him since the beginning, and he was the one who first saw potential in his son. The pro golfer was not even a year old when he struck his first golf shot. According to the HBO documentary by John Strege, he had the best reaction to the shot. Senior Woods ran from his makeshift garage driving range inside the house and shouted to his wife, Kultida, “We have a genius on our hands.”

At the time, Kultida was a civilian secretary in the United States Army office, and Earl was in uniform. They met due to their service to the United States but appeared like an odd match on paper. Woods’ mother had never lived outside of Thailand and, at the time, spoke very little English. But love found the way, and they married and lived happily. However, growing up, she took her son to Thailand several times to teach him about his traditions and family roots. She is often seen supporting Tiger at many of the tournaments.

While Woods was growing up, his father used to call him with the nickname Sam; and that is how his daughter got her name.

His children’s support means the world to him, but Sam is more into soccer than golf.
