Woods has been playing professional golf since he was merely 2 years old. Little Woods had no idea back then that he was going to become one of the most successful golfers to ever exist in pro golf. However, his skills were always better than anyone his age. Moreover, Woods’ dad encouraged him to play at country clubs against people older than him. And to his surprise, Woods would often defeat them at such a young age!

Golf Digest recently posted a throwback picture of Tiger Woods that immediately went viral. The golfer can be seen standing with a golf club bigger than half his body size. But it is clear in the picture that young Woods had missed the hole while he tried to putt the ball. There is no doubt that the golfer’s short game is still better than most golfers on the PGA Tour.
