Long Time LeBron James Hater Once Had a Bizarre Way for Tiger Woods to Win Another Major: ‘Gets On His Hands And Knees And Begs Butch Harmon To Coach Him Again’

It’s not a secret that Tiger Woods lost the magic to win since his car accident and the injuries that ensued. In fact, he could only win 11 PGA Tour titles, including a major from 2010, out of his 82 victories. He won the rest of the championships before 2010, his prime years.

Woods is one of the most prominent golfers who still play on the Tour. Therefore, many critiques noticed his career downfall and discussed ways to get him back in the game and maybe win another title; a major. And the famous American sports columnist, Skip Bayless, had an interesting take on it.

“There’s only way that Tiger Woods, to me, is ever going to win another major championship,” Bayless said in 2015. “And that is if he eats lots of crow, swallows all of his pride, and basically gets on his hands and knees and begs Butch Harmon to coach him again.”

Notably, Skip Bayless is infamous for his negative remarks on the LA Lakers shooting guard LeBron James. He criticizes the NBA star even when he is playing well and thus is considered by the sports world as the certified LeBron James hater.

The famous golf instructor, Butch Harmon, began coaching Woods in 1993. In almost ten years they have been together, Woods won 8 of his 15 majors, 5 World Golf Championships, and was named the Tour Player of the Year five times.

Notably, Woods won his Tiger Slam, to win all majors in a row, with Harmon’s coaching. However, like all good things comes to an end. The duo split by the end of 2002. And according to Bayless, Woods needed Harmon’s help to win another major in 2015.

He explained that Harmon helped players like Phil Mickelson and Rickie Fowler become better, and he can help Woods too. “Tell me he wouldn’t turn around Tiger Woods psychologically, mentally, emotionally. That’s what Tiger needs because it is in his head now,” Bayless stated.

Bayless criticized Tiger Woods for not being able to win a major since the 2008 U. S. Open and suggested he take Harmon’s coaching to win again. However, Woods proved him wrong and won the 2019 Masters Tournament without the help of the famous golf instructor!

It was his first major in 10+ years, and yet he owned it by winning it with a one-shot lead against Dustin Johnson, Brooks Koepka, and Xander Schauffele.
